  • I have decided I really like it, Its a very elegant seatpost despite being a little jarring at first

  • It amuses me that to make the lo-pro they've raised the TT.

    Also, this new aluminium-profile 853 sounds, er, interesting... they make it that deep section? Really?

  • Taking this with a big pinch of O RLY.

  • custom drawn 853 = £££££££££

  • frame only - £695

  • they will make some sweet ass HHSB's though

  • also what are the forks?

  • Fork option No.2: Alpina Wing Pista Carbon Monocoque 1 1/8th Track Fork £249.99

  • I presume this is the prototype.

    That's Andy from FGL's bike. Very nice it is too...

  • Unless 14 Bike Co. make another frame like this in a similar shape, I think I've seen the white 14R that the blurb above mentions. A chap with blonde curly hair came into my shop to drop off a sample of honey about 6 months ago and he had a white 14 Bike Co. steed that look like the 14R. I thought it looked pretty good. Not porn, but definitely not anti...

    Quick an dirty potato of it sans spacers.

    Looks much nicer, IMO. Frame looks pretty small too.

  • How is that anything but awesome?
    I'm not even kidding, I reckon they've nailed it. I should hate it so much I want to kick my monitor until the image goes away but for some very weird reason it's awesome instead.

  • You sir are made truly delirious simply by the sight of the contraption

  • You want a go on it though, right? That seems to be a big redeeming quality for me. No matter how fucking stupid something is, if I want a go on it - they're doing something right.

  • Ahhh my first crankset riding fixed (cotter pin all the way) served 5 months of polo, skids and endured the harsh reality of its plump owner, it finally broke at polo 8 miles from home, thank god that I had cable ties on me at the time. Now I think it must be laid to rest in its rightful place...

    liam you should post the full build. i still say it was the best bike you've ever had.

  • also, how is the 14R anti-porn??

    looks nice imo

    Haha I get what you mean, would definitely be a laugh, but that thing is a godforsaken build at heart

  • re. the 14, If you want to spend near a grand on a vispalike then that's fair enough, doesn't do it for me though...

    is that twin spoked contraption from Scobles current projects?

  • best named bike ever.
