Sweet, I can't help but feel the P5X is designed to appeal to rich guys who weren't allowed a Wildcat as a kid.

@markypoos @lolabelle is this Lloyd's bike?

Because you're not a pro dad until you're a lo dad

shudders

Ach, that's gross.

Yours for the paltry sum of £220

Looks skrtluv-esque

The new EC1 Collective patented braking system in action.

Super nice

perfectly not matched stem

…shit, there’s a party going on there isn’t there?

haha… Judge Dredd's bike.

Nope mini

Believe it or not here's the spec, he's only asking £350.

Before considering this bike please note it was built and set up for me to time trial up Alp d'Huez - it therefore MUST be regarded as a blank canvas!!! FRAME: BO;ARDMAN COMP Approx 52.5 c-c toptube
FORK : FULL CARBON
SEATPOST: FULL CARBON
SADDLE: FULL CARBON
HANDLEBAR/STEM: RAM 2 CARBON
WHEELS: 50MM PLANET X GURU ( £ 500 when new )
SHIFTERS: 7 SPEED
REAR MECH: RIVAL

As previously stated this bike was setup for me and designed for uphill timetrial ( hence my choice of gearing ). All parts were sourced as new except wheels / tyres. Fully loaded it weighs approx 8kg. I have covered approx 30 miles in road testing and can categorically state it soars up hills.

BAD POINTS: CRACKED TYRES ( they're new old stock )
LACQUER REMOVED ON BARS ( during application of shifters / hidden by bar tape).
NO FRONT CHANGER ( my choice )
7 SPEED SHIFTER - 9 SPEED CASSETTE ( my choice )

£350 offers THIS REPRESENTS A BARGAIN - FACT!!!!!!

Paypal or cash collect - courier or happy to deliver local

Can't help but read that in Trumps voice. SAD!

Lacquer removed from bars, yeah, where you forced flat bar shifters onto drop bars. Because they're a different size.

Thanks walmart...

Saw this monstrosity in New York a couple of weeks ago, was wondering where to put it.

Yes, you saw that correctly, an engine strapped to the seat tube and a petrol tank between your legs. Complete with 2 chains for added power/danger/stupidity. All held together by the ever reliable cable ties.

Motorized bicycle conversions are common here, almost exclusively ridden by guys that have lost their drivers license, and usually on sidewalks or cycle trails.
