Voyageur Enigma Photos    More from Enigma  Love Sensuality Devotion: The Greatest Hits  MCMXC A.D.  The Screen Behind the Mirror  Enigma 3: Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi!  A Posteriori  MCMXC a. D. - The Complete Album DVD Enigma, aka Michael Cretu, turns out more light electronic ambience on Voyageur, mixing in an occasional twist but sticking pretty close to his successful, easily digested formula. Since Enigma’s massively popular debut MDMXC A.D., Cretu has moved toward a more New Age/adult contemporary sound, culminating with 2000’s bland The Screen Behind The Mirror. As with that record, Voyageur’s weakest moments happen when Cretu puts his mediocre vocals front and center on tracks like "Total Eclipse of the Moon." Better are more beat-oriented songs like "Boum-Boum" that concentrate on seedier, sexier material and stay away from Cretu’s sappier instincts. While overall, Voyageur counts as an improvement over Mirror, Enigma still hasn’t found a replacement for the Gregorian chants and whispery techno that made MDMXC A.D. such a groovy sensation. --Matthew Cooke (14) Voyageur Wolber Super Champion mod. 58 rims Polished Wolber "Super Champion" (model 58) rims. Surely these were drilled for Schrader valves to accomodate the US market - as would be the 27 inch (630 mm) rim diameters. When recently cleaning the spokes with Simichrome, I was surprised to find the spokes are actually plated steel rather than stainless steel as noted in the catalogue specifications. This is perfectly logical. In 1985 the Voyageur wheelsets had used plated spokes and the hubs on these wheels are dated December, 1985. So, these were likely the last of the previous years wheels. No problem at all, these original spokes are still as new looking as the rest of the bike.

Now ready for the hottest and longest of Summer rides. The aero brake levers are superbly comfortable for riding from the tops of the bars, and the tilt of the bar offers a nice angle for riding on the drops with the brake levers still easily within efficient reach. DSCF1677a schwinn voyageur bicycle The Voyageur is the authoritative account of a unique and colorful group of men whose exploits, songs, and customs comprise an enduring legacy. French Canadians who guided and paddled the canoes of explorers and fur traders, the voyageurs were experts at traversing the treacherous rapids and dangerous open waters of the canoe routes from Quebec and Montreal to the regions bordering the Great Lakes and on to the Mackenzie and Columbia Rivers. During the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, explorers and fur traders relied on the voyageurs to open up the vast reaches of North America to settlement and trade. A noted scholar of the fur trade, Grace Lee Nute was a curator at the Minnesota Historical Society, a professor of history at Hamline University, and the author of The Voyageur's Highway.
