But I share spotter's concerns.

Ugly as sin though.

i'd have to agree on all counts

... unless you don't mind being restricted to taking really wide corners or learn to predrift to prevent yer pedals from scraping

That bike clearly has gears

Upon closer review, you sir are correct

I can hardly accept putting my life in the hands of 2 bolts holding the drive train still
but have 4 bolts to have to worry about torquing down

maybe if it was spot welded on at the frame

you really need to do more homework

Showed it to my dad, who has done metal work for yoinks, who was like "why would it come unexpectedly if the wheel doesn't come out of the track end which has the exact same attachment with bolts"

Cheap but changes frame geo...which can be good or bad.

It puts much different forces on the fixing in the drop out than it was designed to. It is very likely to twist itself out of the drop out.

It will explode killing the last remaining baby seals in a catastrophic shockwave.

.......or maybe just twist repeatedly untill it losens.

nothing good will come of it.

I like the look of that seta Indra. Nice bike.

I kinda want this to be awesome but it's just blegh

Ha, I saw that earlier and skipped straight past it to the bit of the STS site I was actually looking for. There's a ~2002 Giant TCR Aero under that poxy paint

Now, that IS special, from the bendy seatpin to the gigantic cable loop via the nausea inducing angle of the photo. And I thought the TCR Aero was bombproof, there's one right behind me weeping gently over this cruelty.....

rank

I suppose the ridiculous paint detracts from the BLB parts and the scoblestack...

That rear light is in a stupid position

Harsh. V. harsh. OK, it's a bit fussy on the colour scheme, and having such a shallow front rim is a bit odd with a full disc at the rear, but you could do a lot worse.

errrr.....

no

Do you even taste?

Probably performs quite nicely, all things considered.

Obviously it is ghastly to look at though.

It's like a schmerge of the best/worst of all the threads...

^^^ Certainly do. Slightly salty flavoured at the moment, as I haven't had a shower after my afternoon ride.
