Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

Thought the window thing was a friction shifter on its antler at first. That would've been cool.

Do like, either way

Ha! It really does look like a TT style bar-end shifter.

This was built for war, functional bikes thread > > >

Has anyone posted Marin's new top-of-the-range Wolf Ridge yet?

Side point, all those Marin model names sound pretty epic, but Wolf Ridge Trail is actually a tame footpath not open to bikes. Great views though.

I assumed that was it's stomach, full of half digested human. Savage.

By all accounts they ride amazing.

That is a confusing looking linkage

All thanks to 1x12

I'm pretty sure that chain guide is BB mounted.

I'm very disappointed to find out after all these years that Pengy was "not comfortable AT ALL"

That's just an old MTB. Anti demands effort.

Thats been thrown down the stairs...

Matched purple bits, pink computer, wonky rack? Some poor choices

You may not have experienced the 90's, but purple anodised MTB stuff was all the rage back then (when the bike was new). The bike probably fell off at some point and the rack took the impact. Pink computer probably ended up in a clearance section at a massive discount.
I rest my case.

Top tube bag on the down tube, Paul head cap mount for...? Rubber lever covers. It usually sports about 4 more front lights.

It's definite beardy wierdy territory.

Rubber lever covers can GTFO, all else is excusable.

Change saddle, Stem and put flat bars on that and it'll be ok no?

Too x-treme.

You would think that the owner would notice that their bike isn't like all the others...

All the big brands are doing it!

I've seen so many BSOs like this...

Sick drafting?
