Functional bikes. Not Porn not Anti

.

That's very funny but why crosspost to here?

Well, I could have just posted a picture of the bike, but the thread was worth read as welllllllll......

Gah, Just realised this was fbnpna, not antiporn. My apologies, now ninja edited.

The more I think about it the all city makes a lot of sense.

I've just got to raise the funds to buy the blumin thing.

May sell a camera or 2.

^ it is a very good deal IMO. The black one is >£800. Good standard kit for the money too.

Planet-X had a sale a while back where Pompino frame & forks were about £100 all in. With frog leg cantis and a cheap/DIY wheel set it would have been about as cheap as you could get a reliable SSCX bike.

Would very much like a Nature Boy. Pretty hard to justify whilst my Pompino's still surviving though.

I've got the OK to get the nature boy. At the price it is at the moment It's a steal.

I just need to raise the funds now.

The nature boys are fucking rad.

It's the main advantage they have over Pomps.

Shit now I want one for winter!

Yep they are awesome.

It'll be my only fixed bike so want it to be something special.

Although I can't give it too much love as it'll be used for winter duties!

Other than the slightly pony looking seatpost/saddle - the rest looks great.

A carbon fork would be the next logical step.

Wound ups.

So lovely!!!!!!

Yep carbon fork would be a good idea but since I'm using it as a winter/ odd trail bike I don't really fancy it.

I just bought a Pompino and have a half-built Cross-Check stashed under my desk at work. Stop tempting me into buying a third, slightly better iteration of basically the same bike. THANKS!

If they did one in orange, I'd be all over it!

• Can't stop wanting an orange bike :-(
  
  

** Can't be arsed with powdercoating.

Get one of these then.

^ Thankfully they don't make one in my size,so I can't spend money on another bike that I don't need & couldn't presently afford.

:-)

I don't think "orange bike" really counts as a new type of bike that I can justify yet.

My winter commuter, about as functional as I've ever had:
