No, that is awesome and I would ride the shite out of it. Maybe with bullhorns. And clipless, definitely.

+1 i do like those stupid bike with motorbike cowls (< i think thats the right word)

I want the front wheel.

this one must be anti:

Drop bars and freewheel.
And a MASSIVE gear on it.
Then point it downhill.

I want the front wheel.

You can have it. I want a trispoke in the front and Ace bars, then it's pure win.

admittedly it was those risers which i thought made it particularly bad

and the dashboard...

And the MTB grips. Ouch.

Guess it was supposed to replicate the experience of riding a motorbike, without the noise. The grips/dashboard bring it close, but bullhorns would just be more comfortable. In my humblest opinion, that is.

I was thinking about making some Ace shape bars but in bicycle clamp size. Not great if you want to fit hoods, but loads of hand positions and they look freakin' sweeeet.

Anyone want to shoot down this idea with facts before I go and melt some metal together? Any reasons why it's a terrible idea?

wheels and bar (saddle possibly too) **must **take a hike!

gorgeous.

Fuck me that's shite

if you change the wheels, bars and saddle it's a completely different bike. And maybe nice.

my eyes are bleeding!!!!!

Thought maybe he had tried to design a peoples bike that was way ahead of it's time or something.

^ too much like a ghost bike. Shows companies don't do their research before designing, which is never a good idea.

seatpost stem and crank are also of different periods, just generally a horrible build.

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

Speaking as an avid BMXer, the environment behind the Merckx in the link looks just unreal.
