Borrowing words from Vietnam Coracle “This is a remote and pristine corner of Vietnam, right on the border with Laos. One gets the feeling, when looking out over the misty mountains blanketed in wet tropical foliage, that this is a special, somehow magical, place. Indeed, it is home to a semi-mythical creature: the sao la, or as it’s also known, Asian Unicorn. Only known to science since the 1990s, this elegant, deer-like animal, has yet to be seen live in the wild by any Westerner. “ and we can’t agree more.

Block Training - How does it work?
I often stress this - consistency is the bedrock of fitness and training. However, every multi-day bicycle tour makes me a stronger and better rider by the end of the tour.

Isn’t a regular consistent riding better?

The Saddle Library
When we look at a new bike, the conversion always revolves about the frame, wheels and groupset, and the modest saddle is hardly ever part of any discussion.

The team at Bike Affair is focused on building a community first and selling the bike is what happens in the process. It is never the other way around. Have been to other stores in the city too and everyone else is looking to make a sale and that is their #1 goal. Nothing wrong with that but what Bike Affair is trying to do is pure passion and what they get from people is faithful patronage. They do have fun and try their best to make sure you love your bike and biking experience regardless of whether you buy a bike from them or not. Highly recommend this place! Singdha Karthikeyan
