I have, I worked at evans mortimer street for a while and there was a regular customer who had bought a crap alu frame off ebay chucked a flat bar on it and came to evans to show it off. To "save weight" he only ran a front brake, cut most of his brake lever off, only ran 3 chain ring bolts, cable tied the front caliper on, when he needed a new derialiur he bought dura ace to save weight. The best part was he was over weight himself. I wish I had a pic of the bike anti porn heaven!
