have you ever read the explanation for it? your comment is just wrong on every level.

Now that's far more like it ... apart from the HED wheel stickers.

Otherwise it's luuuurvly.

The explanation for the paint job ? Looking at the original post, there isn't one.

it shows the stresses the frame goes through during use, red being the areas most effected and blue the least. damn cool when you look at it like that.

Tbh I'd rather ride one with a standard paint job, that should be in the specialized showroom...

That Rock Lobster and the Tonic are both awesomes, does want.

I suspect that would be terrifying to ride for anybody brought up on modern MTBs

Not the best photography but this was by far the nicest bike on show at the BUCS hill climb a few weeks ago.

The post is different. The image is different and far better so obviously worth posting.

Please grow a brain.

I think the paint job is a real hoot myself. It is a vivid reminder of what you are doing to the frame everytime you get out of the saddle and sprint for the '30' sign on the Sunday club run. Also with the orange and red flecks it is certainly more colourful than if you did the same on a monoque frame(see attachment).

Just out of interest... what makes you think the pedals are 'wrong' and the stem too 'long'? As for the wheels, have you ever looked at late eighties / early nineties track bikes? :-)

+1. Whilst it is unclear whether it is a fake Pinarello - difficult to tell without provenance, frame number, etc. - it certainly looks to be bang on the money for late 80's/ early 90's with the wheels, pedals and stem.

The colour of the seatpost suggests that those stresses are for seated riding

If your were to take the stresses and the positions of them literally, maybe. But I was thinking more generally as a paint scheme and what it represents.

The most MDCC post I've ever seen.

Maybe they had a few heavy snacks in their saddlebag

Needs matching tyres and valve-hole covers. But damn.

Nice Capo.

The skirting board certainly needs to calm down

Needs mouse mould.
