Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

isp/ism is neat, but all the things you listed look anti for me, also reasoning behind a frankly ugly headtube doesnt do it for me I am afraid - has bolt/mash had issues with a flexy headtube, considering its micro lenght? never heard from the owners.
the wishbone, as mentioned week ago or so, looks like dosnoventa's front end, which is none of the prettiest either, I won't be commenting on compact geo as my opinion on this will probably recall Indra from wherever he is right now

fwiw though, I really like the paintjob
but its always horses for courses, simples...

Fair enough mate, this is HHSB after all!

I like the paint too.

I know I do go more for function over form sometimes, but mainly because I see a beautiful function in its form and so function sometimes becomes form to me, even if it has a brutality of form to it (i.e.- head-tube).

I like a lot of the features (only those obvious from a pic mind) of the new frame.

Have to admit, my old MASH was the stiffest frame I've ever owned by far, so guess head-tube argument is kinda mute, but I still like a bit of belt and braces engineering!
