Rat Bikes! Pub Bikes Beaters! Frankenbikes!

Nice benotto, i have very same frame for sell.

Those racks would look so much better if people would just saw off the extra strips of metal.

That Benotto is fucking ace.

@umop3pisdn 2015 year of the porteur bar?

Would be less deadly as well.

What rack is that?

Gutted. Looks BADASS

Badass, yes. Skewer your eyes out of your head if you got it all wrong, also.

Just spotted this on the Mash website, it's advertised as a 'work' bike so I feel this thread is fitting for it.

^ looks brand new everything to me..

The fact that they try to advertise it as a work/track/sscx bike is a fucking riot.

It appear to be different model with the same geometry.

My point being that in regards to geometry, you can't have one bike that doubles as a track bike and a CX bike and do both effectively. The Work frame in particular has a geo that'd be insanely steep for cross.

I feel like I've seen more than one fixed gear company open up the tire clearance and slap canti bosses on their frames and try to sell them as CX frames without paying any consideration to what cross geometry actually looks like.

Edit: I thought your restraining order meant that you werent allowed near childrens playgrounds ?

well a policeman did stop and look at me funny while I was taking photos but I don't think random unenclosed single swingsets count

I like dat. Just level that rack.

The fact that it costs $875 is a right riot, are people still willing to pay the hipster tax for the mash brand?

Its an insult to the thread to have something so contrived on it, a raw finish and a rack do not make it a rat or a beater.

MashSF Pompino. People will always buy into an aesthetic.

Of course; if they sell, then why the fuck not.

It needs to come with this

To market it to london work commuters too.

If I had the money I would get that and put it on one of my fixed bikes. Sounds like a great idea.

This set up is designed to let you use your existing rear wheel laced to our hub

So you can't use your existing wheel, you have to relace it to their hub, most likely also requiring new spokes.
