Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

Deep carbon and a rack. Love it.

Rear brake doesn't feel very HHSB to me.

If you're required by law to have a brake why not use a front which will work better?

Slammed forward seat and post combo, quill adapter with threadless stem, meh crank, back brake instead of front brake.

Pass.

Added a touch more HHSB to my Parallax

A bit OT but what happened to the new setback seat post Thomson showed about a year and a half ago?

how would that work with that rack?

imagine that's not all that heavy

4.8 kg. Could save a few grams with testers headset spacer

I also imagine it’s not being ridden in that weather either.

Same thing that happens to most of his cool ideas - he dropped it for one reason or another.

Gotta say though, an aluminium clamp with that much overhang looks like a stabbed bum waiting to happen.

Part of the remit was that they wanted it to use the same clamp as the existing posts.
In situ; with clamp, it’s one fugly monstrosity! Make the current cranked design look relatively svelte...

Alot of skinwalls/cotton tires on some of the bikes, poser and not skid worthy. Been looking for a year for skinwalls that can handle brakeless riding, any ideas?

I’ve used corsas for a bit. Had a spec cotton on the front for about 3 months until glass sliced it open.

Corsas and spec cotton is to thin, i go thru a gatorskin in a 1-2months . Need like a gator skinwall but seem hard to find :(

Thought paselas were the go to gumwall skidder?

Never seen them avalible in narrower than 32mm over here in sweden, i need 25mm

.

?

Don't worry, skid happy.
