Handlebar clearance for barspins?

Yea, i think the question i was trying to ask is how is there so much space there. I've never seen a frame with some much space above the top tube.
Where'd you get it?

its a brick lane frame. ive had it for just over 2 years. it was actually a sample that the builder gave to them to see if they wanted a load built which they did a year later. i think the tall head tube is a mistake but i like it and theres no other frame like it. saves on the spacers too. ha. ive just totally rebuilt it and sprayed it (im colour blind if you were wondering why the strange colours) the saddle is a concor from that new shop 14 bike co.

Nice one Addison, come drink some beers at one of the nights, or go to tricks on a Tuesday.

I've been on here for too long without doing this, so here goes:

stock pista with stupidly wee risers. i think i'm the only person on here who prefers pistas with the decals left on...

and

could do with a bit of sun.

I am positive I saw this bike chained up on Rathbone Street today?! I even think thats the pub opposite, your sitting outside.

Hah, nope. I work around there, but that's not my bike (it has wider risers). And that pub was in Richmond, but it does look kinda like the one you mean. Nice try :)

Right then. I've met a number of people off here now, so I think my anonymity is reduced sufficiently that I might as well post in here.

With my bike I have gone for a bike anti-porn look. Go on, slate it! And yes, it's single speed because fixed gives me knee problems so it's not suitable for riding around all day.

Robin, what is going on with the angle of your bars?

They look as if you've just had a bereavement.

ha ha, love it. reminds me of pengy

it looks like you ramraided a shop, bars first.

nowt wrong with riding a freewheel.

Your washing machine says 'Hoover' . . . is it confused?

Been on here a month getting info and advice for my new bike....The stealth job below is the result. I love it, and rode it for the first time on the memorial ride.

New bike, custom made for me by the nice fella's at Cavendish Cycles. They were very very helpful, I'd recommend them to anyone.

Trusty old road bike.

And trusty old face.
