I had a Ridley Oval 60cm. Lost in the sands of time...

Local to me, never seen this done before, apparently fairly common on plastic bikes? Anyway, it's big and beautiful in steel, in a functional sort of way. https://www.thespoken.cc/lyle-wiens-fat-tire-road-bike

Had a cheeky spin on this at work today.

Sweet but surely deserves more bling groupset and wheels?

I agree and I was sceptical about posting it here to be fair. Not my bike and not exactly how I'd build it. Not often you see these this big though so

My A. Gresinski branded BaCo, around 61 cm c-t I think.

I quite like the paint job.

into that

Readers.

Put this back together the other day and have been out on it the last couple of days.
Likely gonna swap to a pearl instead of the Jag.

Slightly off topic but do you know who made the saddle bag? Nice to see something a bit different!

Saw this beast on Reddit - the framebuilder piped up in the comments:

"Matt Bracken of Pedro’s here. I worked at Merlin Metalworks from 1993-1999. This bike and and exact copy were produced for “The Admiral” David Robinson of The San Antonio Spurs.
We bolted together two of our production jigs to hold one of these frames for David Robinson.
The fork was a custom Wound Up out of Utah with a length close to 440 mm’s
David kept one in San Antonio and the other at his second home in Hawaii.
Great seeing this pic again."
