It's a time trial bike. They are a always ugly, the stem on this one makes is anti

And the saddle, lack of seat post extension, disc, wonky rings, rear brake cable, colour discord, bulbous bars, photography, etc etc

Sorry I disagree. TT equipment on a steel road bike would be anti but that is a p3

With a mtb sized cassette yet a huge chainring and 2x up front. No seatpost out and that crazy drop on the stem. Someone clearly has just chosen the wrong geo for their body.

Er that would be Emma Pooley's bike, y'know, our Olympic TT'er.

Could be Jesus's, still looks grim

Worth noting the rings are huge to compensate for 650c wheels, which are responsible for further throwing the aesthetic balance off. Make everything else look oversized and bulbous.

Yes, but

Someone clearly has just chosen the wrong geo for their body.

Is incorrect.

If you move to near Richmond park, you can expect to see much much worse than that on a weekly basis

Just like all Saeco Road is porn...Saeco TT is anti.

Maybe it's time for a new thread called 'fugly functional TT bikes'. As ugly as they may be, imo they don't qualify as anti-porn in the traditional sense which I think requires a certain pengy-vibe or at least some form of proof that the owner made some really bad choices when building it.

novel towel rack

multi purpose: towel rack / teeth smasher

Saw someone on one of those oversized scooter with the full sized bicycle front end type things the other day, no idea what the point of those things is.

Anyway, reason I bring it up is the owner had fitted a fake mavic io front wheel.

WTF.
