  • oh dear oh dear oh dear

    the scary thing is, I am sure it'll sell heaps. how long till charge are more hated than twatsters?

  • Sheeeeeeeeeeeet! Saw that at the bike show at Earls Court. Wank!

  • I'm guessing if you're colour blind that might look ok? :0)

  • hippy I'm guessing if you're colour blind that might look ok? :0)

    I am and it still doesn't !

    so everyone who painted their bike that colour combo will now be happy? or unhappy?

  • I like it... for my sins

  • burn him

  • one thing that got me when i saw it at the bike show and i still don't really get,
    what kind of pump do you use with such a small amount of vavle coming out of the rim?

    only think besides the colour i don't like is the fork

  • That is absolutely horrible.

  • Lordy lordy....... that's ugler than an arse covered in whiteheads...

  • the forks a copy of the iro fork, isn't it?

  • Good spot, yes it is. At least iro have the decency to do theirs in black - although I see that Cavendish Cycles now have them in other colours too...

  • Ridin' the wave...

  • Scrapper one thing that got me when i saw it at the bike show and i still don't really get,

    only think besides the colour i don't like is the fork

    Valve extender. I wonder if they intended for that to happen or if they only had short-valve tubes in stock when they built it?

  • yeah they now come in bright orange and blue.. can't remember the name but its not the mark v... it'll come to me in a mo.... hmmm

  • I quite like it, for an off the shelf bike its pretty mad, I wouldn't buy one myself, but it's better than the endless production line of black/silver/blue mid-life crisis carbon road bikes or London's dreary sea of grey hybrids.

    The head-tube / fork angle is rather shocking though !

  • Charge are also bringing out a cleated version of these

  • tynan The head-tube / fork angle is rather shocking though !

    (Seeing as it's brakeless) It's nothing that a good head-on collision won't sort out.. ;-)

    yeah i figured that was it, but what a bitch having to use them when you need to change tubes.

    was more of my along the lines of my dyslexic throught process

  • hippy Let me guess.. you thought happy pants were a good idea too?

    no.

  • fork/head tube is for bar spins
    it looks like brooklyin style. by that i mean a 'fixed free-style' specific frame

    thats the way forward you know,

  • I thought freestyle was the way backwards..

  • When are we going to see fixies with front brakes and gyroscopes?

  • I guess they will be selling it with brakes?

  • londonfgss.com = londonflatlandguffsillystuff.com?
