Bike porn

Stem doesn't suit it, saddle looks tatty, as do the cranks, and needs a shorter, aero seatpost (IMO). Oh, and the bars look shite.

Er, which bike are you looking at? Because your post is under a Gazelle which has exactly appropriate equipment at all the points you raise.

here you go, more your style eh?

Yeah, thats stoopid.

The Gazelle needs a longer saddle though, its too stubby.

Maybe it's a 27" on the front :)

Maybe it's the tap water

here you go, more your style eh?

Hah!

Nice Gazelle, is that the one that belongs to a forum member?

No reader wife! Or is here a guy "reisberg" in the forum???

ps: there is one...so forgive me, if he is the one...

Yes i am :)

Haha, just my thoughts... Mock me if you wish, but as everyone says, porn is very subjective.
Look doesn't mean is, and it may just be the photos, but I personally think it could be much much better.
The cranks just look... Odd, to me. Not the shape, but the finish, if you see what I mean (which you probably don't)

And Mr Scoble, sorry but I find that bike very anaesthetically unpleasant.

here you go, more your style eh?

Regardless of how this is i kitted out, I just love bikes with near vertical seat tubes. Dont know why.

Nope! 1993 green version :)

cannondale fanboy

haha

That Gazelle is a beaut!
Nothing wrong with it in my opinion.

Savage Speedblade is the name I give to this fabulous machine... beautiful!

Get a clue Monsieur Ballbag!

I agree with Mr. Ballbag™ on the polished cranks though, fluted Record Pista cranks look better with the original silver ano IMO.
But I strongly disagree with every other point.

i think that gazelle is my fav bike of all time ever...

ok you peckerheads, this is how it goes:

i had been searching for a big NAG for sometime, its a 61"...
i forgave the bikes geometry because the chance of finding another NAG my size were slim.

I ride this on the track and it handles AOK.

the bike was originally built for a keirin racer to train fixed on the road- hence the drilling etc

BTW, the wheels are 700's

a Point of Order

I invited Delta to answer the claims and counterclaims Post 28831
which commenced at Post 28784 and following.

as it happened it was about Delta's bike, and it was all happening without his knowledge.
So Joe Smith, you have made an unfortunate slur on the good reputation of Mr Delta.
I would suggest a humble apology to Delta is in order!

it's a 61"...

Yeah, most people already had the feeling that this bike is a bit odd.
Now we know why.
Too big for Maxcrowe.

I like this bike too. Anyone know where i can get this frame.

Gazellelicious

this is probably a major repost, sorry. but bigtime repost worthy IMO:

what bullhorns where they on that bike with the stem/brake combo thing posted 2 pages back?

BANANI! that looks gorgeous. not a fan of the seat spoiler tho
