Bike porn

A bike can't get more Gaston.

awesome bike!

frame was for sale on ebay a while back.

I don't get it

First time framebuilder, got the tubes mixed up and the measurements wrong, but it was Friday afternoon.

"Kommisar, I also have a Team Malvor (Stefano Allocchio) Bottecchia that was built for the Giro but banned by the UCI. It was a one-off, built for hillclimbing, and as such has very strange geometry with a forward-leaning seat tube and very long seat stays. The idea seems to have been to reproduce in a sitting position the same geometry of standing to pedal going uphill. So, the bike on level ground, has a "downhill" (front-leaning) stance. The bike was ridden in practice, but banned when the UCI got wind of it. Chromed frame in mint condition, labels perfect, all Mavic high-end groupset. "

Red & chrome sure is nice but I don't think anyone will be climbing any hills with that gear ratio.

So this really IS constant downhill?
Unless you ride up a hill, where it's flat?
Genius.

hmm fap worthy

pornworthy split downtube titanium 'nag i spotted in a shop recently (apologies for crappy phone pic)

Didn't realise "not bad" was synonymous for "porn"

^ Don't like the way that the ISP swells after the seat-cluster. Other than that, posh.

They're lovely frames and I rather like the understated Raboness of this one. Too nice to be hidden in the woods.

This exists due of reasons of 'flexy'.

Where's your ISP now! Power acronyms allround. Why is it on the woods? :-S

gearing looks a little heavy for mountains....

I would like to see a descent in that botecchia

But then given people's fascination with vintage bikes, I wonder if a lot of people here like OAP porn.

Isn't that more like retro porn from the 80s with synths and moustaches? Add 11s Record EPS and deep crabon for OAP porn. Complete with pace maker and hip replacement

Fixed Bottecchia for you guys
