| The Viva Juliett is a Danish-made 7-speed. |
The Viva Juliett is currently on sale at Nashbar for $970. Viva is a small Danish company that was started in 2006 by Lars Andersen.
First I was struck by the beauty and elegance of this bike: the intricate design on the chaincase, the spokes on the rear fender where, traditionally, the skirt guard/coat protector would be, the rear carrier which appears to be wound with bamboo. Then I was impressed that it's available for less than $1,000.
