Bike porn

Got enough cables there?

:D

Looks like the wrong fork and front wheel

Tony Martin's Specialized.

compare where the saddle rails are clamped on both those bikes.

^ one is using an inline seatpost and the other is a layback. I don't see your point.

Bar the thomson post this is how I imagine my dream build of a nature boy being.

dodgy bar angle. The bike's too big for him.

Well lah-di-dah mr custom fit

mmmm...

The geometry, however, seems en par with what Grant Peterson promotes but applied to the "wrong kind of bike"--- typical hand position on a STI/Ergo-bicycle is on the hoods. To my eyes it looks strange. The rising top-tube combined with low saddle just looks out of place. With a traditional horizontal tube it might pass as "old school" but ...

NOTE: Even in the 1940s/1950s nobody rode with hands nearly level with saddle.

Nah bro

while I mostly agree with you, you seem to forget that the nature boy is a cross bike. though similar looking, you can't really compare to a road bike like that. most people prefer their cross rigs set up with a much higher bar.

This^

Nah bro

definitely looks like it should have 700c forks and wheel

Same guy also owns this...

LOVE Rossins... want... looks to have had a front end impact though?

runs away

I lust after a Soul frameset - some nice bits on this, but could be done way better.

Mmmm yes please.

Nah bro

Top tube should be horizontal, thus the bend. Not that it doesn't look KOOL right now, just it doesn't look 'right'.

^and the dropouts are pointing to the sky

.

Yes

Would.

*Drivetrain needs porn setting.

Somebody out there has given this a new home recently. Whoever you are I hope you're looking after her...

^^ strange position, saddle right at the front and a long stem.

^^Is that porn - not saying that it isn't - merely asking?
