Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

I actually really quite like this in a bizarre way. It's a conversion frame, but with ultra tight low rake fork, and I like the road cranks even!

Yes I like it too, could do with a deep backwheel and maybe a solid (or at least fatter chainring) But I would ride that one.

Fucking gash. Any other badge and you'd slam it into fail.

Dunno man, I think that looks awesome.

What slams that into fail for me is the MASH sticker and knowing how much they cost.

One of the newcastle guys bikes.
He is an absolute giant.

Is it me or does this look as though he needs at least two sizes up?

Dunno man, I think that looks awesome.

this is exactly what I thought. Would it be anti to paint a leader frame that I have laying around in a similar fashion, just without the lettering? :)))

Cinelli Mash's are a bit like spotting a girl from behind thinking YES for her to turn round and be unacceptably young/wearing school uniform. They look like a woman but they are not, its wrong.

I do quite like them if I'm honest but I think if I was to buy a cinelli frame I would go for the Vigorelli as I don't think the extra £250 in scene tax is worth it.

according to the mashsf shop the mash is only 25 to 75 dorrah more than a vigorelli. Not trying to say they're good value or something though.

^ nice bike - but HHSB???

something about that Bridgestone looks wrong - super steep seat tube, mixed with slack headtube.. do not like

Not sure I approve of this - elegant frame spoiled by dodgy stickers bartape and saddle

Looks like it's a road converted to track and those stickers are covering up braze ons that have been cut off

Yikes.

I think you might be right - the weld on top of the rear track-end looks a bit suspect too.
I've nothing against conversions, but I do object to grinding off braze on's etc making it a compromised road bike and a compromised fixed - the worst of both worlds in my view

Exactly! If some brand with low or no hipster tax produced it in the same build quality, I'd love one.
But it being the hipster frame to have and being associated with a group of design students in SF totally puts me off.

And I'm sorry, but that Leader^ is fucking retarded. (not a dig at you SadR, just the bike)

Constant downhill.

LOL
that maddy's post (Shimano conversion, Mash Green & Ciocc) they are my friends' bike...I usually ride with them every weekends...and yep, the Ciocc was a road frame and its converted into track frame.

love this

^^ is that a suede zoncolan?

I can't help but like those Zoncolan saddles, it's my guilty pleasure!

I really hate leaders and people riding them
