Great bar angle

That's... kinda fast?

Ha! Was about to say the same. Good pace...

@Ordinata your own bike?

Yeah u Bois seem to liek saddles pointing to sky so I figured point levers to floor fo max slavery. 😎

(Actually gonna rewrap flouro so will realign)

Not particularly HHS but nice enough! Although maybe posting your own bike whilst casually flexing with a photo from Strava showing off your rapid pace is the most HHS thing you can do? (Apart from throwing thousands at a bike, riding it far enough to get some photos for Instagram and then hanging it on a wall obviously).

an update to that bike

Somehow, the White Industries cranks don't look completely terrible on this.

Edit: It just occurred to me that this may be your bike. If so, I apologize, and what I actually meant to say is that the White Industries cranks look great.

bad Amey

Tantalisingly close from Rob English there. Let down by the chode stem

@amey - asking you because you had some - are these the swarf carbon mudguards?

ha! nah, not my bike, thought I wish it was. You're right, but that innter ring makes the carbon tubs an even odder choice than the mudguards do

Apart from throwing thousands at a bike, riding it far enough to get some photos for Instagram and then hanging it on a wall obviously

I feel very much attacked here.

This might be the nicest English I've seen but that blue chain and stumpy stem need to get in the sea.

that blue chain

Ah shit, now I can't unsee

yeah, they are - full build thread here https://forums.thepaceline.net/showthread.php?p=2866527

Its the HHSRB thread, feel free to slate the bike and the rider to their faces

actually amazing how english continues to make the ugliest bikes in existence, and people love it, lap it up, stuff 10 large in his hand and say "one for me please!!"

like the balmain of bikes

I don't think it's his fault that his customers have no taste. He's an exceptional framebuilder

intetesting but depends what Balmain you are looking at... Cavalli might be more appropriate, with decades of consistent bad taste

I will 100% buy English some day

I think the problem is that he made a few gash bikes early on and all of a sudden the gash taste brigade heralded him as their new champion and placed countless orders for more gash bikes.

It's happened countless times in the high end guitar world, super talented builders who become synonymous with tasteless dentist guitars.

i don't doubt, the the it's all exceptionally done, i just neg him for not saying "no, you have bad taste, we won't do that under my name"

@Glws Balmain fan detected :eyes: , cavalli is appropriate tho, or "golden goose"

R u mad? Money is literally happiness.

Yeah I saw this on IG. it isnt too bad.

Chain and stem >>>>>>>>>
