Wouldn't be my cup of tea, the aero bars and all the Colnago decals make it look ridiculously fussy...savage bike though all the same

I like it.

Futura has jumped on more bandwagons than John Wayne though

Futura was a courier long before he was selling work.

bergamont hast only one fixie/ss in his programm an that is the grey one with the flat bar

the other ones i've heard are custom made for the eurobike

fixie= fail. that Fixed Wheel is ugly

It's a pretty frame, pretty sure they had one up at Cafe-Keirin a few weeks back... They had all the other Futura/Stash clobber there too... All that stuff didn't really look right in the shop tho', IYKWIM, a bit incongruous...

eurobike 2008...bike porn or not?

Melting?

If Dali made a bike...

Yeah, but you're white and not from Jamaica...

How is that not a racist comment?

Errr, can you explain why you think it *is *a racist comment?

Yeah, but you're white and not from Jamaica...

Jamaica is my adopted native land this month, strict diet of rice an' peas, rock steady 45s and bushweed... Stay tuned for Canadia and Orstraya months in October and November respectively... And I have a black heart... Well, that's what the ladies tells me, anyways...

Are you like the white matey that stands outside Brixton tube shouting in a patua accent "Aba Shanti, Reggae, Dub, Roots & Culture - Brixton recreation centre!"??! ;-)

Nah, I'm just bored shitless and killin' time... Only 9 minutes 'til Southwark witnesses my impression of shit off a shovel......

Errr, can you explain why you think it *is *a racist comment?

Sure... reverse the point you made and see whether it still sounds racist.

Black, Jamaican Guy: "Hey that's a lovely bowler hat and umbrella you have there."
White, Londoner: "Thanks, they are terribly pretty aren't they. One feels quite complete. Not for you though, you're black and from Jamaica and this bowler hat and umbrella is reserved only for white men from London town."

See? It's ridiculous.

To imply that something, anything, shouldn't be appreciated by or used, or in the case of this bike loved and ridden, on the basis of skin colour and nationality is racist. And that's what you did, you said, "Yeah, but you're white and not from Jamaica..." implying that only if you're black and from Jamaica could you appreciate, or own, a bike frame that sported colours which resemble those related to Rastafarian's.

Oh, and I hate internet arguments... but I find it very hard not to pull people up on what I think are dangerous comments. I don't hold any grudge against you, and I'm sure it was said in jest. It just made me go "Wha?".

I cant remeber which team was riding these in the Points race at Beijing, but they looked pretty sweet

I just had to.

One set of rainbow keys on their way... though I went for the ones with the ball endings as I prefer those.

And a couple of spares too for the 4mm, 5mm, and 6mm as they're the most frequently mis-placed.

Where did you get yours from Mr VB?

Belgium. Sweet lord I love those front wheels (custom IOs?)

Racist...

Not fixed but not bad and reasonably understated! Allegedly 4500 Euro's when new. I know your not supposed to post your own but no one else has put one on of these on that I can find.

That all black look is really nice. Wish I had the money to color coordinate my ride like that.

some nice bikes starting to appear on this thread!

real track bikes. for riding, like.

Just as with no reader's bikes, hows about a "true porn" rule limiting the logo stickers to no more than 2 per bike?
