29er SS :D

Lovely bike!!!! I'm looking for onne of this!!!
CRISP is a great bike builder, hope I'll have one!!!
I agree that has too many headset spacers, but it's all s mstter of tastes...For example I don't like positive steam on 29ers

the only antiporn things are the wheels and the brakes...
I should love this bike with some american classic crest wheelset or with some notubes 355 rims on hope hubs, an no v-brake pivots of course, absolutely lovely!!!

That 29er is porn. Just the right amount of red detailing, and nice looking geo. Makes me want to take mine out.

it's possible to find this bike's pics also in crisp's website!

The cheap and cheerful On-one Pompino are hardly bike porn (especially since they're ugly), but this is a lovely example;

Just needs a better frame now to match the parts. They have spent much more on parts than on the frame which is odd.
Not just because the frame set is cheap but because the frameset is dull and uninspiring to ride off road. I switched from a Felt Breed frame to a Pompino as I the Breed was a bit small but kept the Pompino 3 or 4 weeks before selling it as it was just not as nice to ride/handle.
Now have a Kona Major One which knocks spots off of both of them!

There you differ with I.K.Brunel, whose solution to almost any problem was to call for more steam.

Makes me want to take mine out.

Yeah, porn does that.

AHAHAHA at both ^ and ^^

You will love it I'm sure. Just don't have a go on a rapid cross bike then you won't have anything to compare it with :-)

The vid is a bit long and drawn out but they look like some nice bikes (no idea how they ride). If the bikes don't count as porn then skip to the gratuitous shots of Mario riding about topless.

Just for info, what you see in the first 3 minutes or so is the manufacturing of a carbon fibre frame. First you design the pieces of carbon fibre (in this case UD pre-preg) you need. Then you have the individual plies cut on a large flat bed CNC cutting table. Tehn you see each piece being individually laid up onto a tooling plate. Its a bit like a mould really.
Then the pre-cured frame is vacuum bagged and placed in an auto-clave, a bit pressure cooker. Each of those red hoses regulates the pressure inside the bag to make sure that you consolidate the fibre down properly. Cook at 180ºC for about an hour or so, at about 150psi or so. And you are done.

Pretty simple, but very difficult to get the shape right.
