  • It's an aluminium frame so it probably doesn't actually weight that much.
    Also, for the first time ever I agree with Ordinata. |That bike would be a lot of fun, it's definitely fit for purpose.

  • Must weigh a tonne!

    Why?

    Alu frame, light wheels (for the purpose at least), light brakes, and an admittedly slightly portly fork.The thing doesnt even have inner tubes FFS.

    is it the stickers?

  • I actually like the build from an asthetic veiw point too.

  • Colour combination is a bit sudden, but those Deemax wheels are that colour so everybody knows you're on Mavic, not to go with anything else. Nothing on there that doesn't go with everything else functionally, though, so not anti.

  • but those Deemax wheels are that colour so everybody knows you're on Mavic,

    I'm gonna rattle-can my cross rides later... can't have folks thinking I'm not on Mavic!

    ;)

  • the caveman bike made my die a little inside

  • I think the one on the front page is real....."special"

  • Cervelo should rape this guy

  • Cervelo probably love the paint jobs more the worse they are; if you make your Cervelo un-saleable with paint, people have to buy new instead of second hand.

  • This used to be a SOMEC!!!.... : $

  • But Somec comes with a lovely 8-bit decals.

  • ^ thats not terrible at all

    and that guy with the cervlos i think he got at most 3 and resprayed them 20 times there is no way any one would pay for that shit!

  • ^ thats not terrible at all...

    It's fucking horrible, that's a somec, not a bloody Charge Plug!

  • ....which reminds me ....


    ..Making Plugs looking like Unipacks... noice.

  • Unipacks were copied off plugs pretty much, I think the brightly coloured freestyle ones have the most in common.

    They wrote "breaks" too.

  • ^ thats not terrible at all

    Good paintwork, wrong frame to experiment on, though.

  • I like how you have to be brakeless™ to ride fixed

  • It's fucking horrible, that's a somec, not a bloody Charge Plug!

    looks more like condor styling and wether its a somec or not its not a terrible paint job, i do however have a strange weakness for orange so I am probably wrong.

  • Good paintwork, wrong frame to experiment on, though.

    ^This.

  • what's so bad about it? (the carhartt that is)

    if anything i like the way they've decided to brand a half decent bike rather than just putting a logo on a piece of shit death trap like a unipack (some american clothing company did that i'm pretty sure).

    ok, yes its a hipster mobile but i'd rather see bikes with half decent componentry being sold.

  • Good paintwork, wrong frame to experiment on, though.

    didnt see that, agreed

  • and that guy with the cervlos i think he got at most 3 and resprayed them 20 times

    It's not just some guy, it's the only paint shop you're allowed to use if you want to keep your Cervelo warranty. Those are customers' bikes.
