yes. also the first point of contact for any shit that the tyre picks up. Just seems like such a stupid design. It looked like it was >1mm from touching. (spotted on commute btw) haha not my vibe.

It's a show bike, it doesn't have to make sense in a way.
Saying that, as much as I respect Cyfac craftsmanship and history I have been a bit baffled with a lot of their recent stuff. They appear to need a product manager and a clearer direction. -

But who are they showing it to? Pro team adventure riding touring racers? Don’t they know Lachlan Morton already gets his bikes for free?

Wouldn't want to lose half a watt on your metal bike with mudguards, two racks, two storage compartments and 38mm tyres, would you?

It was built for the Concours de Machines IIRC. It's not like they have paid for it.
Now, don't get me wrong, I think a lot of the stuff on that bike is dumb, but it's from a company with a very rich history and a real know-how. They've always build good bikes but now they're trying to catch-up with trends and to open up to a more diverse market. Rather clumsily in that occasion.

From le-reddit. It's a bog standard "custom" with obnoxius paint with love from WYNDYMILLA in Surrey.
I like fadez but this together with that Outrun-esque stupid AF brandname logo is just pushing it into anti for me.
Someone will probably post it somewhere else.

Shiiiit... It's a box set of Miami Vice on wheels...

Wyndymilla delivering the anti goods for the nth time. So rank.

I’d love to have been at the meeting where they settled on that fucking stupid name. Mostly cos I’m assuming there was a lot of decent chang in the room.

Maybe if it had a bell that played Ocean loader 2

I’d like that if it didnt have the graphics and details on the headtube.

It's just a matter of taste...

It’s the stem which makes it fully anti for me. A ‘normal’ black stem would make it ugly but not anti personally.

What the smeg is going on at the back of that bike? A vestigial remnant of a mudguard, a rack specially placed to wildly increase the bike's centre of gravity, and a very inconveniently placed storage box. How did any of that seem like a good idea?

It's like NAHBS had a go at making a hybrid e-bike with the wheelbase of a beach cruiser

Good job they used carbon on the battery tank and mudguards or it would be silly heavy. Certainly nowhere near a svelte 28kg.

I'd actually like something of a similar-ish look, but just as a full electric motorcycle, without any alibi pedals.

First thing that comes to mind when I see the above...

Not sure why I didn't see that outrun bike already, pls send the reddit.
It's funny because less than 2 years ago I would have thought this bike was the height of radness, but this 80s a e s t h e t i c thing has been so overdone, and should have ended with season 2 of Stranger Things.

The owner does claim to come from Miami which makes it slightly more acceptable.
The fucking rear mech jockey wheels. Marginal fucking wankery
