Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

I actually laughed out loud at that picture. WABOC
Every single one of those bikes is POC worthy!
Especially like the conversion with rear brake.

Sarcastic laugh :)

Oh to be young and try to be cool and utterly fail again...

Looks too big for the rider but its not far from being a seriously awesome pubbike if it isnt already.

Faux brake levers to avoid police?

@JWestland spending £400+ on a wheel but £5 on another bartape? hell no this tape just went on 5 months ago.

So you're in that facebook group too?

the owner has somehow managed to make this look like a children's bike.

yes i am

I cannot even.

Ah, faux brake levers, is there no end to this madness!?

Can't be so, no faux lights or bell in evidence, as per NYC law.

Probably just has them to provide a 'on the hoods' riding position.

Could be? But with the most uncomfortable hoods ever...

This is a puzzle wrapped in a conundrum wrapped into crappy bartape :P

What I figured - just mentioned the NYC law as an aside.

As hideously ugly as it is, it must be hella fun to ride.

Dangerous lever is dangerous

That could be incredibly painful

Unlikely ever to attain a dangerous speed with those spokes.

It's getting there.

They are on sale http://www.dolan-bikes.com/bike-components/bike-handlebars/alpina-ud-carbon-sprint-bars.html

And get rid of the logos on the wheels or better even, new wheels. Some black tyres and also having a stack and a negative stem is err well meh.

^Just a bit of constructive critism.
