You would think so, but the fork crown looks like one of those ultra-skinny track only jobs which might take offence at being drilled.
It's anti-porn because there is a lot of good stuff there, but none of it really belongs together. With a nice paint job, the bull horns the bike was designed for, some appropriate racing tyres and a proper fit, it would approach porn status. That, to me, is the essence of anti porn.
On the other hand, crap which has no hope of redemption isn't anti because it isn't a good bike ruined, it's just a crap bike living up to its destiny. Obvioulsly, as with porn, the definition of anti porn is contested, so that's just my view of the applicable criteria.
