Another hypebeast wankmobile

seriously why does every 'streetwear' brand feel the urge to design a fixed gear bike?

6 grand

the 'track ends' don't even look long enough to allow for adjustments for Chain length?!

I like the way the custom u lock is so small it would only fit round the top tube and a tiny railing. Secure your $6000 bike to basket ball cort wire mesh.

Muddafugging fugly.

$6k gets you a Miche hub laced to a Deep V and an Arrospok. What a joke!

I love that the spec of the fork is "white".

i'm sure some chump with more money than sense will rush out and buy it though.

Just ship it to Trackstar, I hear they have a gullible buyer.

i got to get me one of those 'white' forks, ha. good spot david. they also misspelt the name of the front wheel - they weren't even close.

Looks like a toy. I'd expect to see some kind of lego man riding that.

why the fuck would you powdercoat a lockring???

Emperors new clothes

31t®um why the fuck would you powdercoat a lockring???

i think the questions they should be asking themselves are:
1.who's stupid idea was this?
2.why did we even think about powdercoating a lock ring let alone even doing it?
and so on.......

6 grand? Bargain!

Ucking fuggo.

Ok let's put aside the price/componentry argument. It doesn't even LOOK good.

Failed at the first hurdle.

eek-a-Mouse Failed at the first hurdle.

since when was looking good the FIRST hurdle?

I am of course the biggest mug going because think it looks really really cool... i like the toyness of it. no joke.

Seriously though, how can that be worth £6,000??? having some daft shit painted in zainy colours isn't exactly bank-breaking.

Myabe it was the "3oz sterling silver Kid-Robot headbadge made by ASA @ Complete Technique".

Gash.

$6000USD which is about £20

Kid Robot?
More like Fagatron.

Since when someone with no expertise in manufacturing bikes starts charging a premium for their design input (sound familiar -- Tony DaFoney?).

ha!
EDIT: although that "ha!" was originally intended for hippy....its now been used to show my amusement for all of the above.
thanks for your time, aido

The saddle is too fucking small. for 6 grand i'd at least expect a non-sloping top tupe.
