  • Surely it should be;

    1. A track racing style bike.

    2. A courier/commuter bike (because they are the same thing)

    3. A polo bike OR fixed trick bike. (similar, but trick bike may look sexier than a polo nail)

    Polo bikes in any shape or form are good, happy for SS, etc there. Keen to have them really look alien compared to the rest of the bike show though (obviously insanely low gear, estate agent discs, etc).

    Are these all going to be decal-less, anonymous bikes? If any manufacture's bike was on display it would be a serious coup - and they should really contribute for that exposure. Unless they are a small manufacture deemed worthy of support by "the community".

    Also, for point 1 "A track racing style bike." - would this be a genuine track bike, likely to be used in the present day to race on? If some (albeit attractive) old 531 thing from the 70s was on display it would reaffirm many people's view that track racing is an old antiquated sport for people who don't understand gears, and that fixed gear aficionados are obsessed with defunct outdated retro gear, rather than sleek modern technology.
