I used to frequently see an older bloke about on an eccentric touring pimped up Moulton in Glasgow. D cells were present.

My lht is a towering pile of hideousness comparable to that one upthread.
After many many handlebar swaps over the years I’ve settle on cruiser bars with tt clip ons...I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
I've just put clip-on tri bars on my 26" tourer in preparation for LEJOG and it's taken it instantly from kind-of-kooky to fucking-hideous

‘Eccentric touring bikes’ is a potential goldmine of a thread. My lht is a towering pile of hideousness comparable to that one upthread.

I always like the ‘weird local bloke bike’- prob does more miles than anyone else, completely random selection of parts, almost always something made out of meccano, still rocking lights running on D cell batteries, one ancient karrimor pannier etc.
Preferably teamed with an og TuffTop helmet and reflective sash...
