Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

amidoingthisright

@amey look, 2 Kick stands!

needs three for the holy trinity.

Look. The thread clearly states NOT ANTI.

-10 points to the house of @PhilDAS

Front and rear racks, triple bottle cages, full fenders, dynamo lights and a travel system of breaking down the frame. It's a full house of functional bingo. What more do you want from me?

That is so good. I quite like the small frame bag too.

Niece bike updates :)

Don't listen to the haters, that's awesome!

Also not affiliated but was chatting to Ross at a race as he is a friend of a friend. Really nice guy and the bags looked awesome. Bought a synapse for some long rides/touring and will be ordering the bags from there.

Those stays are lovely

Don't listen to the haters, that's awesome!

It's sort-of really ugly, but awesome at the same time.

Readers.
Posted in fixed/road but guess it can go here too. Winter and wet weather commuter.
2009 Kona Paddy Wagon frame, Open Pro on Goldtec hubs, Tubus rack on which I can fit small Ortlieb panniers without heel strike.

@frankenbike Yes, that’s correct. Takes a minute or two longer to fit or remove but, as @hp93 pointed out, distributes the load better. Also makes on the fly adjustments way easier - if, for example, you stuff a load of snacks in there - which tend to happen more often then actually fitting or removing the whole bag.

@michaelgscott Nice! I’m sure Ross’ll do a fantastic job and you’ll be very pleased with them.

How do we feel about self submissions? Wedged a pair of 2.8in Mountain Kings in my Pipedream. Should hopefully nurse me down the blues at BPW!

Looks great except for the usual Thomson caveats : )

Probably this one;

Those racks are awsome as well.

I didn't read well. Nogk provided the answer already ;-)

That spacer stack, SHWING!

massive front flap but nothing at rear, I like this guy

Bonus points for keeping original (?) cranks. Good way to save some funds for spacers.

Ha, I thought the same. I think he’s even shortened the rear guard for even more FU to others
