Projekt 8
by Del Sol
Details
D Street Projekt 8 starts with the simplicity of a single-speed, then dials up the versatility a notch with 8 terrain-conquering speeds from Shimano with a Tektro 315 dual-pivot calliper rear brake. It sports a riser bar that has a 15mm rise and a 680mm width. Alloy 32-hole rims keep things light, stainless steel spokes keep things clean, and Kenda 700x28c tires keep things smooth. Like all D Streets, the Projekt 8 is elegant and understated. It flies straight and true, just like you.
