Is carban carbon with added barium nitride?

I thought it was a character from the Tempest?

Broom handle top tube? Honey dipper grips?

needs wooden cranks and rims

Hell, yes! All the money, added lightness, probably less mass than a ferret's fart...

.....And yet hideous, perfectly offset by the fork/seatpin paint combo, the bar tape, the headset and a special mention for the bar angle. Mind you, the Lightweights qualify on their own.

All that money for a bike with a frame way too small :x

I know that a smaller frame is more stiff.
But based on the topic title, I was commenting how it looks. And 2~3 sizes taller, it would have looked better IMHO :)

No, just less worse.

Or at least if the tiny frame was deliberate, he could have had the courage of his convictions and used a +17° stem 🙂

Who's that frameset made by? Can't tell from here.

I was struggling on the wheels, possibly rosade which is like a floral orangeade

Get your eyes tested, it's 'drosser' which is self-explanatory.

I rest my case

No way. This is great.

I can dig it. Looks fun.

Looks like an expensive race bike turned into a shitty hybrid

Some bits could be better though.
