  • ^ You'd cry if you visited Amsterdam.

  • That's a Track Champion! The frame looks amazing, shame it's a shit build.

    That is Comanche Elite, not a TC, look at dropouts and headtube.
    Sick Russian Fadez

  • do not want

  • Only because it's a Dos? Looks like a pretty nice bike to me, saddle angle notwithstanding.

  • I need some info on this Dos hate. doesn't look particularly slack... generally shit?

  • 2390€ for the frameset. That's all you need to know.

  • I think of them as a Spanish Foffa.

  • 2390€ for the frameset. That's all you need to know.

    Fine frames from columbus tubing or crabon.
    Maybe it's just mine, but general hate is because of
    money thrown at them, poor fit, scoblestacks and HT
    slackness on smaller sizes.
    But the founders of Dos suggest smaller sizes which
    is the reasone for scoblestacks and poor fit

    I just think it looks awful all round

  • SadR is on a roll in the wrong thread, again.

  • 2390€ for the frameset. That's all you need to know.

    holy shit

    and crosschained to fuck

  • That Olmo is pretty nice. I looked nicer with drops but these bullhorns hardly make it anti.

  • Bullhorns with hooded levers is silly, though.

  • Not when you place the bike in its time. Into the early 00's there were pro's who had their brifters mounted on their tt bars.

  • do not want

    Standard dos clearances begin to make sense!

  • Not when you place the bike in its time. Into the early 00's there were pro's who had their brifters mounted on their tt bars.

    But on Lo-Pro bikes, not road bikes with inappropriate bullhorns

  • ^ is the inappropriateness of bullhorns fitted to bikes designed for drops that you end up with mad reach?

    or why?

  • Done 'right', you end up with two out of the 3 positions you'd have by fitting drops. Pointless, basically.

  • Unless your requirement is to have two positions?

  • Or to look good parked at LMNH/cruising the wrong way up some street off brick lane/to match your other LFGSS-fixie-matchy components.

  • might be wrong but the white tires don't do it for me also wierd angles on the levers

  • you're not wrong

  • Just posted to reddit. That place is a gold mine of fail.

  • Done 'right', you end up with two out of the 3 positions you'd have by fitting drops. Pointless, basically.

    Disagree.

    Bullhorns are a comfortable and practical half way between flat bars and drops. With bar end levers the brakes are much more accessible than in the hoods on drop bars.

    But having hood levers on bullhorns makes no sense whatsoever.

  • ^^ after seeing that, atrocity, Roboto is going to sell. #iwould
