Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

I just shed a Gorgeous Mismatched Blue™ anodized tear.

I'll see that and raise you

Spoks rightly come in for a lot of criticism when applied wrongly, but it's worth remembering that they were an aerodynamic improvement over the then current wire spoked wheels back in the late 80s, and even the great Chris Boardman used them for domestic time trials.

There's a picture in the Boardman bar at Manc velodrome of him riding a front Spok, I keep meaning to take a picture of it. Maybe if hipsters think they are actually used by racing cyclists then the fashion will die out.

Actuallty, what will happen to all the little orphan spoks when the fickle hand of hipsterdom casts it's net of egotistical ignorance elsewhere?

needs red saddle.

And SRAM Red...

Not anti. Wrong rims though.

i think these people just stole the wheelset somewhere
i wish they stole the whole bike instead...

Not anti. Wrong rims though.

massive clearances etc etc. is it just me or does it have a really long tt?

And here it goes... Since when a geometry other than really tight is anti?
It's an old bike. Very old. It has the geometry of its time, that's it.
Clearance = anti / tight = p*rn is a moronic shortcut in an already flawed debate.

calm down. it's my opinion.

Obviously the frame is porn, but the spok and that abomination of a trispoke, what a way to ruin a porn worthy ride!

I think the bike looks pretty sweet - and i reckon most of us would be quite proud of it...

not sure about the flat pedals like.....

that frame is wellll fit

how thin is the seatpost!

I love it... even the rims

runs away and hides

such a shame, i saw these frames before they were built up - posted them in the porn thread. beautiful.

calm down. it's my opinion.

Word it properly then. You say "massive clearances" (full stop) as if it was universal antip*rn.
