aesthetically speaking, I would put the stem lower and maybe turn bars a bit counter-clockvice. Pretty damn nice gt!

aesthetically speaking, I would get the tubes to meet at the corners

For my tastes, GTs must have a flite.

.....why all the GT love ? is it because of eddie fiola ? or does that triple triangle make a stiffer frame?

big nasty chewing gum brazes get slated on other frames ?

I like them because for a change they are not made in italy or japan and they do not have lugs

Because triples triangles are great.

That GT needs a much bigger chainring though.

Am I doing it right?

Any more info on these?

They look more modern than 1990, but they've got GDR flags on. And those hipster watches and Adidas GDR training tops are bang on trend.

ive just put a bullet proof vest on and turned of all the lights in the house.

realising what i said and where i said it.

I wish you wouldn't post these. I have no need for one and it is not even my sort of bike but I just want one for some reason but don't know why.

Because fatbikes are the shit?

Cheers for that, fascinating bikes considering when and where they were built. I found this about them, seems like they did the job too.

Some pure porn on the photostream of the guy who took the pictures too, from the same 1989 Track World Championships. But I thought you weren't supposed to radially lace Sheriff Stars?

Ah well, I suppose you're not really supposed to build a wall to stop your nation's talent pool fleeing the country either.

As someone that prefers CX tyres off-road, and that probably see little snow. No you dont need one.

But they look like toys. Which appeals to inner child.

Surly are bringing out some 4.7" mud tyres at some point. Now that gets me excited.

from classifieds. Not the most original, but undeniably porn:

Hey, I saw snow once a few years ago. I didn't go outside the door though as I fear the unknown.
Probably right about the inner child and I know as soon as I rode one I would put it up for sale as it would be too sluggish, albeit rather comfortable.

Yeah, but can you imagine one of those things upto speed?!
It would unstoppable, great fun! :D

Well I'm not parting with my lightweight 29er. Put it that way.

i wonder what the cheapest bike that made it into bike porn is

This afternoon I saw this bike, built by Donhou, with a coupling system so it can be taken apart (not S&S). 853 steel, tune hubs, carbon rims, bb7's with the calipers painted...
