Spotted in Brighton...

Soooo I feel dumb. It’s been bothering me since I saw it as I really liked the color so did some hunting online. Was deffo a gunmetal grey Pre Cursa. I mistook the D as an S on the head tube 😂😂😂

anyone on here moved over to Worthing lately? Spotted to very on here rides over the past couple of days: a Knight (?) fixed gear with porteur rack, and a stickerbombed graveldad bike with pizza rack and dynamo lighting

Knight is me. Have dusted off the old whip as everyone I ride MTB with is currently in plaster after a less than successful trip to BPW in August.

I live over Portslade way but pedalled over to Rustington to get this picture I have wanted to take for a while.

That's a lovely build. I nearly yelled for a skid, but I was driving at the time so always the risk that its taken as abuse!

haha, I would have obliged!

Cheers, its been through a few builds since I have owned it but this variant is my favourite.

Your lovely looking Knight definitely needs to be in some Brighton Bike Tags.... 'tis a beaut.

Anyone missing a beater bike?

There's three abandoned bikes next to the playground in Stanmer Park. One of them was stolen from a friend a few months ago so I'm guessing these two were as well.

There's also an abandoned green Ragley 29er hardtail with Manitou forks by Saltdean tunnel. I'll grab a pic later

Guy in a black LCEF top at the Children's Parade today? Don't see many of them around.

In prescription art London Road. I'm not mad on the wheels

Lol.

pure waffle innit. Your not a disruptor its not art It's a bike with a paint job and rank wheels

It's yuck all over. A shame 'cos the normal, unadorned Gradient is really a beautiful thing, I've always thought.

They did a bike a few years ago that was in the window of onca gallery for that cycling film festival. Steel road bike in a beautiful cherry red with polished stays and logos and was for sale as ex show for a couple of grand less than when it would have cost as a build. If that wasn't too big I'd have bought it. This one I'm not so keen.

Did you ever see this: https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/bikes/urban-bikes/reilly-sx-street-x-first-ride-review/ ?

It was beautiful. I saw it in the flesh in their unit (I think only one prototype was made; could be wrong). Mark showed it to me. Too expensive for the market I guess (too expensive for me), but really a lovely thing.

2017 prices that'd be over 3k now. Reilly do make some fine mamil chariots just very expensive now.

Makes me think of this. Jon told me he learnt his trade with Reilly bitd: https://road.cc/content/news/108476-morvelo-and-chickens-frame-emporium-collaborate-new-bike

That is a seriously beautiful bike. My Brompton could do with respray, I wonder if he'd be willing to give it the same highlights.

I think the gold bits are actually brass filet brazing that he's left bare for the effect. Sure he could do a job on your Brompton though!

@Retro_Bastard (I think) riding up Queens Park Road earlier today?

He was looking for the new tag I hope, 'cos I don't know where it is!

Not me just on my usual coastal commute today. I'm mostly on the Genesis still with the pink bar tape. Also stuck on your tag??

Sounds like I need new glasses.

Clue added to the tag.

😳
