  • Crappy chainring bolts. Fail. Next....
    Disagree. I think they work, or is there a quality issue?

    Front QR fail. Straight to anti-porn it goes!
    Yes. Yes that is a fail.

    a bike to gloat about on weightweenies, not for riding.
    fail.
    What a load of rubbish. Firstly it's not even a stupidly light bike, secondly how are Edge wheels, S Record, Clavicula cranks, etc. solely the domain of WWs? A couple of those made it to Velocio's Robin Mathers, didn't they?

    Too may taste bypass victims in the room more like. Lurid paint job Al frame does NOT equal porn.
    True. But a well made frame, with beautiful attention to detail and quality parts does.

    Re those Colnagos... seriously? They are all fucking hideous.

    nice. lots of mini fails like gunslinger hoods and spacers but it's still full of win.
    ...it's a fuck you to the weightweenie's and porn police.
    Logic?

    dont like any of those WW bikes not enough patina,what happens when they go for a long ride do they take bottles with them or is water to heavy ?

    Also I never understand the WW backlash on here. If you actually read the site and look at some of the bikes, there is often a focus on getting the balance between weight and a functioning bike. It's interesting that you mention a water bottle, as that is an eg that I have heard on there - if you forget your water bottle, you don' think, "great I've saved 750g, you think fuck I don't have any water".

    ...Its just that they have a fetish for lightness, the same way that many of us do for things like well joined tubing.
