Bike porn

no it's not, you fool. it's disgusting. it looks like a load of knotted shoelaces tied together.

Shit you're right, it i an awfully nice bolt/ skewer on the hub though, I like that!

Unsure whether this been posted before;

Arent these wheels a little out of date to be a "proper track machine" ?

Gear looks too small aswell.

Are you trying to offend me?

sexy ti track frame

Needs black rims, seatpost, stem, and drops IMHO.

...and a smaller rider. That is a lot of post showing for a horizontal top tubed frame. Would they be able to reach the drops if they ever put them on!

No it doesn't.

Machine is really bored.
That would look shit, fact.

Needs front wheel to match rear, and drops IMHO.

fixed

Ti Unipak

Look at the 'tight' clearances!? Could get a tank through them

Very dull IMO, 3 over 10

And it's too small for the rider

Seatpost & Saddle Position Fail

nice ride, but cliche and not porn.

my opinion is teh only correct one.

I can see the crowe riding that ti bike for some reason.

If you want to make it go fast, on the other hand, 53/16 would be nearer the mark

i knew you lot would get back at me for that :)
i figured it was general agreement that for single speed / fixed gear the more teeth (both front and rear) - the better, life-time-wise. i also understand 42/13 would make the bike go quite fast :) but that was not my point

I did'nt even consider what would be the fastest gear, or anything else technical. I was just thinking that for the same cost and gearing, the bike could have a big(ish) chainring. Which would make it look more business-like. [/shallow cnut]

...and a smaller rider. That is a lot of post showing for a horizontal top tubed frame. Would they be able to reach the drops if they ever put them on!

The stem is nearly all the way in (and is pretty short). So if the owner really wants risers, they could'nt go for a bigger frame if they wanted to.

moving on...

Is that a Zipp front?
The Corima is looks nicer IMHO.

But the M5 is lighter.

Looks like a Campag Hyperon

Looks like a Campag Hyperon

Just googled Zipp hub, and it seems the shape is the same but with less carbon.

I hate the look of carbon fibre like that, its just shouting "look at me I'm carbon fibre and I'm better than what you've got".

does that ^ look thought-provoking only to me?..

Everybody just shut up!!!!
