The umbrella is a lovely touch

Along with the sex toy

So many questions... A hammer in a plastic bag?

Freddy Krueger halloween costume finger knives on the left seat stay?
PVC gutter mudguard

I don't mind it on the whole but am not really into the Stayer wheel graphics. A bit Comic Sans for my tastes.

Also they made the letters a bit too big to fit on the rim so you cant really read what it says. Odd that they missed that

some bikes you really want to see what the rider looks like.
possibly this one is owned by the guy recently banned from writhing around wearing his gimp suit in public?

I don’t mind colourful bikes or bits but the combination here just doesn’t work for me. It’s out of balance. I think the wheels are a deal breaker for me. The frame with just black bits and wheels ( and agreed, tyres) might be okay.

Yeah, coloured frameset with black everything else would look a lot better to my eye too.

You've gotta pay the commitment to the theme, though - the spokes are next-level.

More colour ...

Yeah that's pretty rough. Everything just looks so out of proportion.

is the saddle very small or very far away?

iPhone lens distortion innit?

Looks like a Power saddle, which are fairly short.

It’s like computer game character creation.
Maximise crank fatness,
Minimise saddle size
Maximise head tube
Minimise stack
Maximise stem length
Etc

Is that a 25 speed cassette?

Not the world's worst offender. But its like everything has been picked and set up to look shit despite a nice frame

Cranks suit it. But that seatpost and those rims can fuck off

Doesn't look great, but stem, saddle, BDHU, and a better photo and I'd keep the rims.

Probably look a lot better with black tyres
