Awesome!

I dream of having a custom cx version of this frame... love the colour, but they also do a wicked red and green (not together).

Still don't know if I like it, box tubing and chunky welds would normally get blown out of here.

and the fact it's freewheel - less abusing.

yeah but its a nicolai, this is what it makes nuclear bomb proof.

they need the bead welds, without em its no nicolai

oh do shut up, you fountain of utter bullshit

Totally love it. Nikolai do make some amazingly industrial frames that inspire so much confidence! I break bikes usually at an alarming rate, but I think I'd feel pretty safe on that.

love this, without the front radial, it would be gorgrous.

Nah.

invisible chain alarm

Shit heavy seat;

oh do shut up, you fountain of utter bullshit

gorgeous* xD
phrased that wrong, it is gorgeous, i am just not a fan of radial arrangements :

There's more than one kind of sheriff star hubs beside the track version...

ftfy

they are the pretty much same, except for the axles, and the reverse threading** and the thicker flange spider**

how many bikes you broke this year?

how many bikes you broke this year?

Actually, haven't been riding last few years due to health issues (also the reason I'm on here at 3:15am). Starting to get slowly back on ma feet so first thing was to build another bike! :D
But before that, got through about roughly one a year. Bloody expensive when some cost upto £2500. >.<
But then some were complete pieces of crap too. Probably about £6000 total over 8yrs or so.

I call BS.

Yeah I've broken 4 chains over the last year, no bikes though... I tend to just replace whatever I do break, junking a bike over a broken part seems a bit....

how do you break a bike a year? too much RAW power?

more likely?

Saronni Blue?

That look like my Diamondback, only slightly better.

Wow, I love that Saronni.
I would like a white one like the "Jan van Erp tegels" team around 1980.
It deserves another saddle and seat post though.
