Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

epic saddle-bar drop.

Is this a joke? they look about the same height to me.

Insert greyhound taking a shit image.

Looks like a front fork covered in badly wrapped carbon-look vinyl.

It surely was a joke, not its not anymore...

epicly slight...

It's a sit-up-and-beg lo-pro

I see just a simply Beater in here.

Brakless on those cranks? Seems clever!

And I know I should hate the saddle on the Cinelli, but it's just so awesomely 80s.

cinelli is nice a frame but toooooo much chrome/silver making it look nasty.

cycling jerseys for people from other niche interests tend to be hideous

Armstrong Apollo 11 would be epic win though.

so i have been riding it now for a couple of days have tweeked the saddle and the bars/stem, but i'm just too far forward, so the only other stem i have is an old ali MTB one but it has made me more upright and more comfortabel.

I'm thinking that iff i get some aero levers i could swap between the risers and drops with this stem. i wonder if i would do well to look at those flippable headsets?
Oh, spot the mistake with the brake cable, i cut it a bit short!

Bike fit fail.

Outside the big chill bar in brick lane last night. :/

That bike has been posted many times. Many, many times. Many, many, many times.

Oh blimey, didnt realise i had made it over here, ouch.

that's the bicycle equivalent of a dead pensioner who's been lying undiscovered in their arm chair for a few weeks and has started to turn... you can tell what it is, what its meant to look like but it's just... rotten.

Lets break it down...

• 650c front wheel
  
• left hand drive
  
• set back seat post
  
• saddle angle
  
• leopard print saddle
  
• toe clip covers
  
• snake skin deep V
  
• toe straps in upside down
  
• Chub hub
  
• rear valve(?!?!)
  
• white tyres
  
• chainring bolts (not only coloured, but multi coloured)
  
• leather top tube protector(?)
  
• untaped bars (that look like flopped n' chopped Nitto B123's / 125's)
  
  

It just keeps on giving.

Except Apollo 11 actually went to the moon without cheating...
