Bike porn

This thread is so shit.

I was on about the look...

And the fact that the chain is so short that the wheel can't be removed without breaking it.

Yeah I noticed that immediately, that's what spoilt it for me, really.

I know man, I apologise.

Agreed - certified rad. I was talking about the Zeus.

Can I can post a Cannondale for apologize for that Zeus?

Do what you like. I'll try not to be a cunt.

Do you consider it as porn?

I like it so much.

I'm jealous of whoever rode it there, certainly.

I totally would... ride it 'round the world! Good bike.

From Anti, because small people have equal rights like tall people.

You do know it's not the size that is making that anti, don't you?

the chainring on the r5 ca up there looks like it's carbon wth. how the stays dont flex being that fin is always going to be a mystery to me

Who laces sheriffs to h+son shite?

And mismatching gruppo makes it hhsb more than anything.

I have tried to explain this a fair few times, but it seems really hard for some people to grast so here it comes again:

if you derail the chain off the chain ring it will slacken significantly and you can remove the rear wheel without breaking the chain.

I didn't believe it at first either, but I have tried it and it works!
feel free to try it yourself if you're not yet convinced.

Since the rest of the bike is a mix of high end weight weenie equipment (AX Lightness finishing kit / brakes) the Fibrelyte chainrings, I would suggest are another detail to get the weight down .. Also the cranks are Zipp proprietary 4 bolt fixing Vumaquad cranks so there's not a lot of chain rings available apart from custom.

^ That's probably true, but it's more hassle than having more links. I think that the clearances look asymmetric even if the functionality isn't impeded.

Thanks for explaining that, dron, I was being sarcastic. I was going to explain it myself but I didnt want to sound like, well, to sound like you just did...

Mystery solved; they do flex. That's the whole point of the pencil stays on the R3 and derivatives, to provide better ride and handling on the pavé

Laterally stiff while vertically compliant?

'fraid so. It can be done, despite Bikesnob's mocking.

Love this. Quality boot too. The piece of wood with fork mounts that is
