Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

Change the tyres, lose the stupid saddle and it would still be a Schwinn Varsity.

In other words, a pile of gas piping welded together in probably the least refined manner possible. The Electro-Forged Schwinns were the BSOs of their day, not worth tarting up.

^ coolest thing I seen all week.

They have one of these in a shop in Auckland. Some guy tried to sell it to me saying it was the trendiest bike going. I litteraly dont know what it is for? The vertical dropouts and swillerling BB make it unusable for the track, it looks so shit and is so expencive that no one would want it for the road. Pointless. I hopt to god that Mr Merchx hads not only not had a hand in this but has never even seen it.

The build (the merckx) is terrible, but I think the frame and geo doesnt look that bad. Put alpina fork and full murdered out kit w/ deep wheels on it and it is fine.

Literally nothing I like about this.

I agree, it's a nice enough looking frame but the build is aaawwwwful.
