wow actuly looks good compeared to the london one

Part of the bike looks decent, I like it better than the others Ive seen. How about a whole shot of the bike?
-
One of the other cities in the special edition city ranges last year was green too, thought it looked pretty sweet. I still haven't worked out really why people on here don't like these bikes. The langster was the first fixed gear I saw and had appreceation of back in my train days. I like the look of this new one.
Other than the colour do they change the components each year?

Yep looks quite nice. Is it black or a dark green, dark green would be better.
I saw some guy on the theams path on sunday on a London Lancaster, man it is so ugly, it makes my bike look good.

Its a really deep mettalic green, like BRG its actually quite nice. I put some red tyres, bottle cage, on it to make it mine. I really like it. Its never going on a track and I only use it for a commute/training so it ticks all my boxes. Its really light too. I was thinking red bar tape maybe thats overkill though?

Rigadon ''off the peggers lack character especially the Langster.it seems to solve the problem specialized just copy a stereotype.i like bikes with an individual character...hippy managed it with a Langster so it must be possible.''
yawns
if thats the case your bike must boar the shit out of you...the bottle cage has made a huge difference!
-
the main problme with the langster is the top tube slops the wrong way

I'd agree with what Aidan says - but I'd also say that they're a great way to get riding quickly. It's MUCH more fun to build a bike up from bits over a number of weeks (I just finished doing this with my second bike) but when you want to ride RIGHT NOW without spending a fortune, getting an off the peg is the way to go.
One thing, I'll bet whoever buys OTP soon starts looking to upgrade it - like you have, Rigadon - or to build a second bike :p
It's all good, it's all riding bikes...

Well said. I think you are right for what its worth I have five bikes. I will probably look to upgade the wheels on it next but out of the box it suits me fine. Its mass produced but I like compact geometry and I like it which is the main thing. The thought of building up an old 50's frame is not my cup of tea but hey I respect anyone who is interested enough to get out there and ride a bike, whatever bike that is, even if its a sloping top tube langster!
Cheers
