ORBEA ORCA 2011!!

We just returned from Spain where we were among the first to see the 2011 Orca and Ordu. The new bikes are fantastic and we can't wait to put these in the hands of our customers!

New! Women's Specific Specialized Amira Comp

Lynn walks you through the Women's Specific Specialized Amira Comp. This 2010 complete bike has a beautiful carbon fiber frame and fork and is accompanied ...

New! Women's Specific Specialized 2011 Ruby Expert

Lynn walks you through the Women's Specific Specialized 2011 Ruby Expert. Essentially this bike is the women's equivalent to the incredibly successful men's Roubaix frame, answering the demand for a little longer wheelbase, and a higher handlebar height to deliver long riding comfort with no sacrificing style.

New! Lynskey Cooper at Gran Fondo

Check out the video below as Lynn walks you through a Gran Fondo Cycles favorite, the titanium Lynskey Cooper. We love this made in Tennessee frame because it gives customers an economical way to experience the superior qualities of titanium.

New! Orbea Onix with SRAM Force

We asked Orbea for this build on this frame and they delivered. This complete bike is a Gran Fondo exclusive and it could be exclusively yours!

New! 2011 Bianchi Sempre

Unidirectional carbon fiber, a BB30 bottom bracket, a Bianchi badged set of FSA components and a screaming paint job make this bike one to be excited about. Forget the 2010 model year closeouts - buy this one at a competitive price while we can still get them!!

New! Bianchi Via Narone - Great Bike, Great Value, Great Look, Great Heritage!

Bianchi delivers with the Via Narone. Clever name you say? Yes, Edoardo Bianchi's first bicycle shop (in the late 1800's) was on Via Narone. Celebrate the great heritage of the name that brought two wheels of the same size to the bicycle world - Bianchi!

New! Specialized Dolce Elite

The Specialized Dolce Elite is a great women's specific starter bike. This bike has great looks, but more than that - it has a great spec for the money. We love the use of the SRAM Apex group, offering a wider range of gearing than a triple in a compact set up. Hitting a price point of $1,350, this bike is smart!

New! Specialized Secteur Comp Compact

The Secteur brings the Classics-winning geometry of the Roubaix down to an accessible price point that recreational riders will love. Featuring an all-new, aluminum frame design with an endurance focus, the Secteur puts efficiency, reliability and comfort above all else.

New! Titanium Lynskey Cooper with BB30

The Lynskey Cooper can be the perfect titanium alternative for the rider who is not sure that a carbon frame is their ultimate dream bike.

New! Assos Clothing at Gran Fondo

New! Reynolds State of the Art Wheels

Prototype and Crazy Cool

New! Pegoretti Is So Cool!

To know Pegoretti is to appreciate all things cool about steel, Italian composition, life and art...

Three Bikes for the Long Haul

Check out these three new builds on the floor at Gran Fondo. We think these three capture the essence of all around bikes - each in its own special way.

New Options on Power

There's a new option available to those looking to train with power. As usual, when SRAM gets involved, prices come down and users have more options...

Lynskey "Super" Helix BB30

The first of it's kind...

Reviews of the Diva and the Orca from the respective perspectives of the sexes...

t's been a few years since Lynn and I treated ourselves to a matched pair of superfine bikes, but the 2010 Orbea lineup had each of us drooling over the Diva and Orca, so we decided to sign onto the Orbea Made to Order website and build up a couple of dreamy rides. We let these bikes adorn the sales floor for a couple of weeks, but now the rains have subsided, and we've taken the bikes on their maiden voyages. Check them out from each of our reviews:

Orbea Offers Savings

Ever wish you could peak into the warehouse of a major US distributor and see what kind of crazy deals were available on old stock? Well Orbea has decided that you can help them clean out the warehouse. We like this stimulus plan - customers get great deals on Orbea product and we get to help them find it!

New Pinarello FP 7

Royal blood lines...

Gran Fondo Hosted Rapha Continental

Gran Fondo is honored to have hosted the talented riders of the Rapha Continental team when they joined us in early May to ride the beautiful roads of Middle Tennessee in a century ride designed by Vida Greer. If you love to ride a bike, you have to ride this ride!

Specialized Roubaix

Back, Neck and Shoulder Comfort Never Looked So Sleek and Racey

Lynskey Tri Bike

Sweat on it, pack it, leave it in transition all by itself - titanium is ready for some abuse...

Travel With Your Bike with Ease

Yes, this bike's got a ticket to ride and she don't care - she won't pay any additional fee to be a precious checked bag on any airline. When she arrives at her destination, she is easily reassembled and still the best looking bike there. Factor in no worries about scratches in her paint job and you couldn't find a better travel companion.

Vida's Lynskey Helix

As the owner of the most beautiful custom Lynskey Helix, it is time for me to blog away about my fantastic new bicycle. I wanted to make sure that I bonded with my new eye candy straightaway, so I proceeded to put 500 miles on this bicycle in the first 10 days I owned it. The bike is perfect, and I think it captures a lot of what we try to do at Gran Fondo.

Get Twisted with a Lynskey Helix

A Spiral Twist in a titanium work of art! Innovation and Lynskey, of course!

Handbuilt Wheels

A great way customize...
