BIG NEWS  FOR 2009:

Fandango  goes 29'er!

New for 2009: We've added the 29" wheel platform to the Fandango line for even better off-road performance.

29" wheels offer definite advantages for off-road tandems including more versatility, and a smoother

ride over rough terrain.

Fandango  comes home!

Also new for For 2009, we've decided to go against current bicycle industry trends, and put our support behind

US-based frame builders. So we've brought Fandango frame production home to the USA for 2009!
