Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

Hellyeah.
It's a Cannondale, isn't it?

Ah says so in the filename, duh.

Yaaaaas long live the mini bike, thats super rad !

Love those earthy colours.

This bike is trying too hard imho, especially the bags with the leather straps and laces

Standard Berthoud construction, he’s been building them that way forever.
It’s kinda insta ready but those bags will last.

unpainted frame is questionable

Wasn’t sure where to post this but figured some people would appreciate my friend’s bike setup for a mental 950km ultra that’s starting tonight

Go Glyn!

Hahah yes another Glyn supporter. A fancy BMC with a 1x mtb cassette, clip on ærö bars and being absolutely stacked with bags is an S tier bike build I reckon

8 years full time couriering. I think the headset is the only original part. Must have done 200k on it.
Kinda wish I hadn't cut the steerer.

8 years. That's a long time.

Stem slammed and high bars is a good look. But yeah, something like 2 cm extra steerer is always better. Could get someone to extend it?

I would like a wee bike to cycle to my garage (10 mins away, just annoying when I forget something). Brompton is probably the logical answer but used prices are high. Any alternatives, vintage mini bikes I can search on eBay etc

A cheap Decathlon folder?

BTwin 100 looks perfect tbh, cheers!

You can have this for free if you can collect it near Portsmouth.

Ahh Portsmouth is just a bit too far, appreciate the offer though! Looks like Facebook marketplace has a few :)

Could look like this if you buy some mods

does this have brifters AND barends?!

that trip sounds like an amazing challenge...

Fair enough.

If anyone else wants it, they're welcome to it.

Raleigh Twenty if you want vintage? Mine is surprisingly quick with a 14T sprocket...

weirdly enticed by this strange bike
