Bike porn

Not sure why people get upset about someone's bike and the parts thereon. Its not to my taste. But if he wants a Mavic Io on his bike let him get on with it. We are all hipster twatts in someone else eyes. So live a let live, and get on with the ride.

I have to agree, once you have spent a few months with renal cancer or dealing with parents who have had strokes it seems a bad waste of good energy for people get themselves erect about someone else's bicycle, regardless of what colour scheme, how much money, what saddle angle, handle bar height or spoke count they are/are not running.

I must have had some of my biggest arguments on this site with people incandescent with indignation because they have seen someone riding a bike with a build that fails (or exceeds) their own sensibilities/morals.

It's just bikes, I love it that this bloke has stuck an expensive track wheel on his street bike, he seems to be into bikes, not such a bad place to be if you can stick the cloud of internet hatred.
