Matching bicycles

I like it when people go right ahead and get themselves a pair of matching bicycles:

Duncan's:

This woman has three custom Mercians; one mixte, one road, one fixed.

Cino made one for himself, and one for his wife.

This really does it for me.

This thread makes we want to puke with jealousy

Isn't there someone on this forum with two awesome matching Rixons?

Very close, not exactly matching:

Rixons :

Those rixons are absolutely incredible. In particular the low pro track.
I'm so so jealous.

Building up a yello Fort 7005 low pro track over the next few months.
Maybe I'll try track down a matching racer aswell...

I'm dreaming of one day getting a 3rensho road bike to match my track bike... I would probably be able to stop buying bikes if it happened.

thank you. I haven't really riddent to lo-pro yet, and it's been through a few changes, but it makes me smile when i see it so can't bring myself to sell it.

also turns out the guy i brought the lo-pro off, his father owns the rixon bike shop, and he used to race both the track version that i own and the lo-pro at manchester in the late 90s :)

Oooh a specialist thread I can join...

bmx fred, road bike now and your set for life

theo, sell all your bikes and get one made, now.

except the 3rensho obvs

Is there a photo with both Rixons at the same time?
That would be the money shot.

one from before the lo-pro was finished. (what is the correct spelling of lo-pro btw?)

here you go:

....and does anyone have a better photo of these matching JP Weigles?

I reeeally like it when people who go right ahead and get themselves a pair of matching bicycles, also go right ahead and get them both painted in a ridiculously idiosyncratic colour scheme, like... just in case anyone might have missed that they're matching.

Kenevans town bikes, made by Ken Evans and owned by Ken Evans and his wife.

I know of two Mercians that are for sale/will be for sale soon.

The budget version: get em whilst you can!
