Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

I'm with mitre_tester here.. Just because it's someone on the forum doesn't mean they should be in some way immune from criticism.

Especially since mostly all of this criticism comes down to personal taste (barring the insertion line stuff which is actually sensible and potentially stops an owner's frame from being damaged). If you like your bike then why should you care what others think about it? I certainly don't and wouldn't get angry or offended if I saw my bikes in here.

Didn't we have this a couple of weeks ago about someone else's bike? Personally I think it's a bit off to post a bike that someone here has put up in the projects page and slate it.

It's true that if you like your bike you shouldn't care about what other's say, but it's also true that if you like your bike enough to post its progress to an internet community, then it might smart a little if someone from that community takes it and slams it.

Anyway, my 2 cents, and know there are exceptions etc etc etc...
