Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

so bad

^^^ SO good!

sweden and denmark

Nope, both from Copenhagen, if that's what you referred to..
Although it sometime seems El Rey and me, own and built as much shit as Sweden and Denmark combined!

now I understand why my wheel got called 'hip-hop'

that Pedal Atleten track bike above got sold and transformed into a monster, sadly..

Look at the clearances on that!

a young repost. back to school boy.

and the Merckx is ugly

My humble contribution, I think i ticked all the HHSB boxes with this one..

Sorry if three pic's is a bit over the top but i'm just so damn happy how it turned out.. :-)

My love for Subway is making me like this despite the stack of spacer+ drop stem and bar angle.

silly clearance!

i think it's not about clearances, but about the HT angle. wtf, has this been crashed head on? twice?

What happens if you hit a pot hole, the frame flexes, the front wheel strikes the downtube and stops - Superman?

Well spotted and quite amusing.

"I'll have a footlong Subway Club please. Oh and can I take a photo of my bike in here too? Thanks."

where'd you find this picture? a mate of mine took it

That's been crashed and bent, zoom in and look at the top tube head tube area...

THIS is what happens

Yeah the headtube/rake is pretty crazy. And no, it's not a result of a serial crashing, It's just a odd frame.
It's a Szekeres, apparently a east german frame builder and by the size and look's of it it was made for a giant riding on really steep banked tracks..
If anyone have any ideas for the reason of the ht/rake i would really appreciate it.

i just took a long hard stare at the bike again.
i wouldn't ride it with that front clearance, way too close/dangerous, get some carbon forks with straight legs, it will eliminate the risk and you can play with rake a bit - i'm sure currently it drives like a unicycle

Well it rides surprisingly well actually. It responds really fast to any rider input for good and for worse and that took some time getting used to..

"really fast"? no... i'm sure it's got quite a slack feel to it
