Demo Bike - Lightly Used Zinn Custom Touring bike with Pinion Belt Drive

This custom touring bike is a true gem, and if it fits you, you should not hesitate. It is a work of art and performance. Our framebuilder, Nalby, built this bike for his cross-country trip across Turkey, where he spent a month traveling on this very bike through the historical country side and cities of Turkey. This is truly the ultimate touring bike. A titanium bike built for load with a Pinion gearbox and Gates belt drive. Featuring Drop bars with TRP electronic shifters and a custom made one-of-a-kind titanium rear rack and the Zinn Duro Fork.

Nalby really thought this bike out when he built it. He wanted a maintenance free bike with reliable shifting and drop bars. This led him to the Pinion gearbox with a gates belt drive. With the TRP drop bar brifters, this bike shifts effortlessly with electronic shifting. The bike has a dynamo front hub to charge the lights and the shifters, and even features a USB-C device charger on the top of the steering tube. He kept the majority of the wires and cables external to allow easy access and repairs while traveling in remote areas. The dynamo cable is routed externally along the Zinn Duro fork so he could get at the cable easily if he needed to. The only cables that run inside the frame are the ones going to the pinion. He routed the brake hose externally in case a repair or parts replacement was needed. 

He made a titanium rack for the bike, and he told me when he sent a picture of it, "Don't ask me to make another one of these". The rack is a work of craftsmanship unlike anything I've seen. It's sleek and beautiful and incredibly strong. If you get this bike, you'll know that it's truly one of a kind since he is refusing to make any more of these racks. :)

We can, however, custom make you a new bike just like this one in any size and with custom geometry for you.
