Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Sorry to spam but is anyone interested in a new set of Schwable Smart Sam tyres 27.5 (650b) x 2.1" looking for £20 plus postage. Going to need to go down to a 2.0" for my Croix de Fer as it's a juuuuust too tight with the 2.1"

PM if interested

just needs guards!

The angle at the grip area doesn't work for me; that little up swoop makes my wrists cringe. I often see it though, especially on those newsboy repros that ads for investment funds and Depends seem to favour.

^ this.

Except the second sentence – I can't explain that.

Like this.

Gotcha.

I'm considering baskets like that if I'm honest.

The baskets are fine, and so is the bike - it's those ridiculous bars.
Worksman makes solid stuff for industrial, factory, street vender kind of usage.

Have you ridden bars at that kind of angle?

I only ask as I thought I used to think I'd rather that type of bar tilted down at the ends. Then I rode some.

I have, I know a couple of people that've purchased bikes that come with bars set up like that. I much prefer that kind of bar to be level or slightly angled down.
With Ergon grips of course.

Fairy nuff.

Must be a personal preference thing then.

I think if you're used to proper bikes the inability to put any weight through the front wheel can be disconcerting.

I know I feel like I'm risking wiping-out whenever I ride these things. I'd need to un-learn how to ride a bike.

Finally had the GB fitted. Need mudflaps.

This ^ is the future.

Nice job, serious business.

Didn't know GB have their front longer.

A very big mudflap!

Looks excellent. What are the tyres?

You sir, needs a downhill bike.

Like a hole in the head. I don't really MTB.

..but you can! Think of all the Monster you can drink and 'bro' you can say!

Not stupid enough to put couplings in pron but this is bloody lovely!
