Retrotec Twin Road (Tig-welded) come from INGLIS AND RETROTEC CYCLES, a custom shop that makes quality bicycles, handmade in Napa, California. I’ve had the Retrotec Twin Road for over a decade and the Twin Road had served many supported and unsupported long-distance rides that has seen crossed over to bike touring – I need a slower pace in life and enjoy life more!
The exquisite ride quality of Retrotec Twin Road and the sentimental value have the bike kept in a box only to be rebuilt for my first touring adventure and I was hooked! Abdul Rahim Kassim, Musa Haron, Adam Hamid, Rafie and Mors Kaizer organized a road trip to KL one day to meet up with Akmal from Basikal Akmal, Naz & partner and both Faritz and Jaz: Please connect with Akmal for all your bicycle needs and more. He is always ready to provide support in all of your touring adventures: https://www.facebook.com/basikal.akmal
The modifications made to Retrotec Twin Road include brazing the IS Disc Brake, widening the rear-spacing and a couple of bottle cage mounts: Please give a visit to fezzcyclesbyfarits Instagram and ready to be impressed with his custom works as a custom framebuilder: https://instagram.com/fezzcyclesbyfar…
The custom colors on the frame, decals and fork are airbrushed by Jaz: Please give a visit to jaz_airbrush in Instagram too and see the wonderful world of colors and artworks: https://instagram.com/jaz_airbrush?ut…
They are all genius, talented, generous and very accommodating and are highly recommended! Here are the geometry specifications for Retrotec Twin Road for those who like the numbers:
- Size: 52

- Top tube Effective: 54

I’m stoked with the final conversion from a roadbike to a touring bike with disc brake support and I’m glad I held on to the frame after so many times thinking and weighing on selling it. Did I mentioned that Retrotec Twin Road is the only one in Singapore?
