Rikulau 931 Road Bike
Reynolds 931 stainless steel is an alloy that has a balanced strength and ductility. Unlike its sibling 953 that has a very strong character, 931 is a very versatile multi-purpose material.
Rikulau 931 road frame makes the most of the material property to enhance the stiffness on the BB area and to provide enough comfort from the stays. Rikulau 931 will not be a racing expert, but, it is going to be a perfect fighter for endurance riding. In 2014, Rikulau 931 will face the Tibet challenge to break the current record of 8d11h58m .
Feature of Rikulau 931 road bike
1. Integrated head tube for enhanced stiffness and modern appearance
2. Flattened seat stay for more comfort
3. Larger down tube for increased stiffness

May Snow – Tung Flower
Tung Flower (Aluerites fordii Hemsi) is associated with Hakka people in Taiwan due to its plantation for the high valued oil . It became the main character of the most romantic cultural ceremony in Taiwan after it stepped down from the economic arena.
During the blossom season in April and May, white flowers ornamented the whole mountain of green in northern Taiwan. In the trails underneath, it carpeted the ground just like snow. Therefore, tung flower was given a poetic name of “May Snow”.
In Rikulau’s May Snow graphics design, tung flowers spotted the frame just like the flowers floating in the creek and dancing along the flow.
Reynolds 931 Stainless Steel
931 has a tensile strength near 1300 MPa, and a very good corrosion resistance and ductility. Therefore, with manipulation on tube thickness and tube size, a 931 frame can be as stiff as a 953 frame, as comfortable as a titanium touring frame, or as much fun as a CrMo fixed gear frame. It is a very versatile multi-purpose material.
