Kory York K2

What if Cannondale were to revive its legendary Cannondale Track, back in its pure, original form? We were all somewhat disappointed when each revival was nothing like the original. Enter Kory York, a small Italian company, set on the belief that handcrafting is the real key to doing it better. Inspired by, or should I say to pay homage to the legend, Kory York released the K2, taking it into their own hands to give what the people yearned for. Ever since they released the K2 model, I was obsessed in this modern recreation of the original Cannondale track. Few years later, I finally saved up enough to build my dream bike from my childhood. Here I present my pride and joy, my 2021 Kory York K2, custom painted to match the icelandic green and gold letters. Maintaining the tight geometry, if not tighter than the original, this bike rides even better than it looks.

Current Stage Info:

Haven't had much time to ride the bike past few months. Was thinking about going all black with the parts, but I have yet to follow through with it, so only the seatpost and the clamp is black for now.
