Transit, Tomio, Nara


We took a ride in the rain on Sunday up to Tomio to visit the funky Transit shop, a bicycle and climbing specialist store. Tucked away behind Tomio station in a converted old Japanese house Transit hold a range of bikes and accessories. New bikes from the likes of Calamita...


And Centurion...


And some vintage custom builds like this Fuji Olympic...


And this lovely Zunow road bike...


The shop walls are filled with accessories ...


And some gorgeous parts hang from the rafters,,,



This cool Masi is the shop owner's bike, a good demonstration of some of the custom builds the shop does...


A cool and friendly shop, definitely worth dropping in when you are in the area. Keep up to date with their work via the store blog or follow/like them on their Facebook page.
