Santana Encore bike review

Santana produced the Encore bike in 2000 and can be classified as a Tandem bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $4,395.00.
Encore bike is available in many sizes such as Small , Medium , Large and Extra large .
Santana Tandem Encore can be found in a few colors, among these colors Blueberry Anodized, Clear Anodized and Prizim .
This bike is equiped with 26 x 1.40" Ritchey Crossbite tires and Wheelsmith stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by FIR Tandem specific, 40-hole. Santana equiped this exact model with Avid 1D-2.5 brakes, Shimano Ultegra STI levers braking system and Hadley Racing Precision Sealed hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Santana used Easton Megasize 7000-series double butted aluminum material for the frame. Modolo drop front/bullhorn rear high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Encore to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Alloy Ahead.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano Ultegra, 30/42/52 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-7700 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Santana, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Ultegra STI Dual Control gear shift levers.
