Polo Bikes

Nope, I thought about it and went with the old school mini rise approach... carbon is gonna be a new polo trend though (unless it snaps dramatically)!

Tell me you haven't bought carbon bars.

I've bought carbon bars.

Your brakes squeal, and now your bars are going to creak.

Jono, I'm guessing your butterbean is already reserved by now, but if not, I'm interested.

I'm not sure if I'm going to sell it, might stick it in the window of LMNH for a bit, selling it will be painful... maybe though, still a couple months off, etc.

I have these cranks. Can someone point me in the direction of the chainring bolt I need for the second larger hole?

carbon replacement for all those broken pomps

Crabon polo is the future...

Not on one of those it isn't.

An ongoing rant of mine is that carbon frames in polo are fool's gold.

I look at the dent in my sword; my tough, tough, beloved sword, and wonder how a carbon frame would stand up to similar impact. Actually, I don't wonder, I can categorically say that polo impact would decimate a polo frame at some point in its life. It might last awhile, in the absence of significant impact, but in the event of significant impact; i.e. impact that would dent a steel frame, such would destroy carbon.

I understand that tight weave carbon is strong; but it's not polo strong. Essentially, a carbon polo bike would be like a helmet, the first significant impact it withstood would destroy it. They are single use bikes.

Disagree.

Many broken carbon bits in polo already.

Disagree.

Pah!

Crabon is fool's gold anyway.

Ha, Eddie's grin is hilarious.

Carbon totally depends on the manufacturing process. Cheap carbon is fool's gold.

I was just about to post that niner video. I don't think it really says anything relevant, it's just fun watching someone hit a carbon fork with a big hammer.
