Polo Bikes

another hipsted company getting late in the wagon...

I'm glad it's got a "confortable seat"

I like it. Its no polo bike though.

I can already hear those forks snapping

Needs V-brake mounts

I dont play polo, but how can a company put out a polo specific bike like that, when 10 mins research reading this thread shows it to have completely missed the boat?

Because people that make bikes are idiots.

Also the people they consulted probably made it to their preferred spec, which does not necessarily represent what the international polo community are looking for in a bike these days.

I really like the fact that it's brakeless with no foot retention. That'll sell well over here.

The Brick Lane posse will be lovin it.

Radial front wheel!! Yes!

I'm buying one.

buy it, keep the front wheel, throw away the rest of the bike, good deal.

does it come in 'medium'?

no.

wait. you mean the size between grande and venti?

yeah. it does.

does it come in 'medium'?

is that medium-large or medium-small?

The Brick Lane posse will be lovin it.

Probably not what you are referring to; but where on Brick Lane did people play polo before?

Is there a split-off of non-forum trendy folk playing polo on that court still?

Forgive my ignorance as a newcomer etc.

I really like the fact that it's brakeless with no foot retention. That'll sell well over here.

Freewheel and brakeless perhaps, even better

regular please.

Anyone got a 36h front hub they wanna part with? I will swap for some cash?

Just looked back through this whole thread. Epic.

isn't it. it would be so cool as a chronological polo bike evolution book thing.
kind of interesting that the latest and (as some would say) best polo set-ups look uncannily like the old early 1900's grass polo bikes...

except ours have brakes

there is that. #picky

:)

Mine looks nothing like a 1900s grass polo bike.
