Bike porn

I wonder how come only spokes have shadows though?

Only the spokes are thin enough* for the parallax caused by the flash not being concentric with the aperture to cast the shadow entirely outside the profile of the object casting the shadow.

*rear brake cable too, if you look closely

Happy new year,MT. Oh, and the rest of lfgss too =))

That's Hard Core Porn. Too intense for me dude.

It was porn until the shot of the final build

^^^absolutely fucking hideous. Revolting. Looks sooo cheap and nasty. Was sick in mouth a bit. And the amount of time he spent over it jesus what a loser.

Agree with oz, why gold lugs?

because everyone knows black and gold makes a porn-worthy bike...

Please don't tell me those lugs in that video started as a huge block of stainless steel!!!

worlds resources >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Personally I'd like a little more contact area on a glued tube frame, but then again I guess it isn't really a bike that is designed to be ridden much.

I'm loving this

It is indeed lovely......sometimes less is more.

They didn't. Well, not as such. They're 3D printed lugs, I don't know how strong they are though. Personally I'd have some structural tests done before building a bike like that.

must stop fantasizing about ridiculously expensive 29ers and how one could improve my life limitlessly....

I'm thinking more of this kind of riding than the bike...

My boss has one of these Alan Cyclocross bikes, original with all the decals. Stunning in person.

Re?

Then buy one, ride it and improve your life.

It worked for me (for a given undefined unit of improvement)

Never. Canadian titanium hardtails ftw

those look like 26" wheels though?

Exactly. 29" is just a fad.

Funny fad, they've been popular for more than 10 years now....
