  • True, but only because compact geometry and logos plastered all over the place tends to look shite, so most contemporary bikes look shite. It's a shame that you have to go somewhere like Indy fab to get a beautiful bike. You should be able to buy a decent looking OTP, but its not easy when £6,000 still gets you a horrible looking bike like this. http://i.imgur.com/jqD8M.jpg

    Mate, I own one of those - granted its the 2010 black version without all the garish shit on it, and granted I did not pay £6k for it. I will also happily accept that it's not the sexiest bike out there (Mondrian Look - I will own one), however, neither is it hideous... but fuck me if I doesn't absolutely piss on all the other bikes I've ever owned or ridden. Horses for courses.

    To be honest, this, to me is porn - Boonen's set up of my 2010 frame for Paris Roubaix (edit - this is actually the 09 frame):

    I'm bored bored bored of seeing endless lugged steel frames I'm afraid - I own some and they're beautiful, but will always love the S Works more because of what it feels like to ride.
