Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Yes! Would be nice.

total stunner made by our own @Hulsroy for his wife.

Excellent, had my builder add his own initial on top of the fork for my bike, I think it's a great extra touch.

Winston did that on my Varonha... he also did my birthday as the frame number : )

Looks like it has quite some toe overlap or is it just the picture?

It has major toe overlap. But my wife hasn't got any problems with that.
Geometry is based on a 700c track bike she used to own and loved.
This bike is an attempt to create same feeling in a bike but with mudguards and 26" X 35c tyres.

KJ is her maiden initials and her UK nickname.

Thank you buddy 😚

Outstanding. I'm a sucker for a segmented fork and a purple bike.

@spotter very late but what is this (purple pg 1011)? Looks like it could be a Clandestine? It's amazing.

It is

Thought that was really lovely. Also wondered if forks were a little bent... (Not on that shot)

(Overpriced though)

This has turned up in the bike shed a work, loving the guard/rack combo. Hub gears/brakes and a dyno what’s not to like?
