Geekhouse Superbike
**[Superbike](http://openbicycle.com/2010/04/22/superbike/)** Thursday, Apr 22nd, 2010 posted by jonathan I needed a bicycle that would take me back to being 15 years old, when I was smashing my S&M Challenger through trees and trails and stairs and rails. I needed a bicycle that could pop me through traffic and manual across the raised divider. I needed a bicycle nimble and quick, sturdy and strong, and light enough to flick through the streets. I needed a bicycle to get me to the booze store and back again in comfort, something I could put miles on around town and still be able to stand up straight afterwards. BMX wasn’t gonna cut it, nor big bikes or a fixed bruiser, and trying to hack a Surly Steamroller into my dream ride wasn’t working out. I needed a bicycle built for the city and it needed to have *balls*, and there was nothing on the market that even came close.
Joshua and I sketched out the necessities and went to Marty Walsh, of Geekhouse Bikes, and said “we need you to build this super bike.” Marty said “I’ll build the bike, but let’s add all this other cool shit to it, too.”
Please, now, read about my super bike.
Marty Walsh’s through-the-triple-triangle internal brake cable routing. Nuts, totally nuts.

That Litespeed is bit too busy for my liking, but both look like nice bikes on a longer ride.
Not my kinda porn, though. -

Oh my gosh, I was trawling around on the internet to find out more information about Colossi after seeing that beautiful frame a page back when I found out they also made components under the unfortunate name... C Unit
Read it fast. Yeah exactly.
Look at the fucking stuff! They're so close to being cunt cranks. I kind of want a pair. Maybe the bars.

Or that posters could source pics without those items, it really detracts.It is like people dont have pockets in their jerseys anymoore.
