This beauty was custom-made by the former Danish professional rider, later, famous framebuilder, "the Banana" - Bent A Nielsen - in 1988. Besides the fact that its been made from Columbus SL tubing and that the fork has the most beautiful and quirky crown, I don't know much about the frame. From the lugs, it's clear that this is an 11 year older sibling to my other Banani, which is made by Bent's son, Sverre. Such a fun ride!
