Bike porn

The point is that some people think that the Cannondale is pretty enough to be porn. If you disagree with that, for whatever reason, then that's just like, your opinion, man. Porn is subjective.

very unlikely to be porn, and certainly not if it is lop-sided.

Next time you're on a rear-wheel-drive bicycle, look down ;)

If you could point out an obvious design / build / fit / photographic flaw, or the whole thing was just 'meh' then yah, you'd be right, and the 'dale wouldn't be pron.

But you can't. The only thing you don't like is the way it looks. That's your opinion and it's not enough for Trigsy to be not pornworthy. I think it looks amaze, and I know it's technical statement that was put together with no shortage of love. Porn.

You know what I mean. We all know what a traditional bike looks like, and we all know that most bicycle innovation is ugly and pointless, especially if it dispenses with the two chainstays, two fork blades orthodoxy. Lefties may be pretty good and a worthwhile innovation from a practical / performance point of view... but from a looks point of view... naaaah!

"we all know..."

No, you just made that up.

Good try - but red chainring bolts offer no practical advantage over black, and in most circumstances detract from an aesthetic. Therefore it's a build defect. Doesn't mean the hypothetical bike isn't porn, it's just less than it could be. But in some circumstances it could be the tipping point from porn to 'meh'. Or worse: gash.

I haven't looked at the thread yet. But there's loads of text. Someone mad? Did Howard post the bonty from HHSMTB?

Trigger is Marmite, that I can accept. It's also a technical tour de force. Lefty is Lefty because it performs better than a traditional fork. Stubby stem is stubby because the geo of the bike demands it.

And jeez is clueless because jeez

He didn't!? I shall do the honours!

Oh look this is still going...

Bontrager is not pr0n for me, Lefty Dale is.

Reasoning being I want one and not the other.

Go figure.

How about we argue about it for 2 pages?

Sounds great!

I'll just find that polished Six13 I posted and...

Deep drops for such a midget frame, no?

Mind you, I think the Honda RC30 is a really cool motorbike, so what do I know.

It was porn in 1988, it's "Vintage Erotica" now :-)

That's the most sensible thing you've said today.

What gets me is the guy has made sure they're high enough that the bars won't hit the front wheel when you steer, but left them low enough that your knuckles will if you're on the drops. Silly.

the bars move with the wheel how can you hit your hands on the tyre when turning....?

Does your front wheel turn independently to your bars?

It's what comedians call a callback

Racist!

I heard it started in Toloose.

I only appreciate comedy as comedy when it is comedic.
