jesus wept:

this guy has "wood grain velocitys on the way" too. there are some fucking tasteless people out there...

are they easton carbon forks? I think so.

very expensive.

the mind boggles

Holy fuck.

What sort of human rides that?

fuji should sue

Should I feel a little embarrased that I like the polka forks?

should very tall people not be allowed to ride bikes or something?

On the contrary, I'm 6'2, but obviously wouldn't advise anyone taller ever attempts to ride. Just imagining the bizzare limb proportions really

No chainstays! Also the bottom bike has a chainline that goes round the U post.

Slack frame.

i was sick a little

Good god that's fucking hideous.

why in a gym? looks like it should be on AFSD's blog (and I know the tone to read that in so I'm not slating him)

could be her bike...

i saw the frame before it was built up and the frame is stunning! It's currently for sale for £1K on the glasgowfgss site.

i'm sorry but it needs to be the way "God" intended.

edit - the pictures have gone but here's one i prepared earlier:

Was in Gear yesterday, they have the frame hanging there, stripped, supposedly the new owner is going to do it justice and build it geared. Those fugly gold bars are on display in the shop too. This and the guys other bike are just the epitomy of "more money than sense".

Stevo_com, real owner aint even that built...

seems he has realised his bike is suffering from pengytitis and is about to smash it on the floor to put it out of its misery.

If you look at the D Lock, it implies that the whole bike is locked on top of the sheffield stand. However, as both of them are the same colour and the picture is 2D then it gives the impression that it would be behind.

Love the 9speed cassette on the back!

yeah probably. Still the lack of Chainstays is not good.

wtf. Stupid Foxytunes thing.

when we saw the frame in gear it looked stunning but everyone in the shop was a bit shocked that the guy wanted gold everything!

it was the green rims that really fucked it up, i think. that and leaving all the braze-ons and then converting it to fixed.

just out of interest, what is his other bike?

(how's it going. by the way?)
