Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

I do know this, I'm just being anti-gussetist cos I think they're fugly

I reckon that's justifiable in this thread, it's all about aesthetics...

Gussets are a very efficient way of adding strength to a structure. To achieve the same effect as a well designed gusset simply by increasing the cross section of the whole frame member would be heavier.

although this is pure speculation as i know nothing about the build quality of the frames, i still reckon with more subtle paintjob you could make quite a nice build with one of those.

That horse is going so fast, you cant see his face!

guys, do you remember this ugly bastard from a dosen of pages back?

some of you may even remember that it made me want to vomit so bad i had to post lots of shit on the page just to make it go away
anyhow, turns out it's just the pics of the condition it was found! and the owner realizes it's huge value (columbus MAX)
here's what it looks like now (not posting to anti- , just giving the link) - pretty decent imho

Nice to see a happy ending :) Do we have a puppy resurrection image??

can't see how this is anti, should be in functional bike topic rather than anti.

a bit mental that bike, don't you think ? Way past the point of no return.

Pretty mental, I remember mdcc_tester mentioned that those 'soft ride' bicycle are idea in event such as the RAAM, in term of providing comfort that is.

It's a long way from being the most egregiously anti Tri bike we've seen. For its purpose, there is nothing out of place or badly chosen, so even though you might not like it, it doesn't really deserve to be here. Even the Ergostem is probably justified, as many people change their bar position depending on the race distance, see this week's "Comic" feature on 12hr bikes.

That would be Ed's best bike

According to MDCC it's a lo pro.

According to MDCC it's a lo cargo.
