  • It wouldnt surprise me if this is turns out to be a dubble post but since I have no clue what it's name/brand/model is, I can't search for it.

    Anyway, what I'm looking for is a frame (eh... fork?) where the handlebar is attached to the crown of the fork. I've seen this once in a picture with bullhorns.

    Does this type have a name? or is it just one brand/model? In worst case could it been a custom made one?

    Oh and btw, I know I'm no good at explaining so took some random racing bike picture of google and modded it in paint, hope it will help.

  • thank you D.C. thats what I remembered!!!!

  • surely soviet stuff beats all of the above, dontcha think so?

  • That cannot be a comfortable ride.

    nope, it's more akin to being on the drop all the time, so it's only design for a short period of time, and your typical Shoreditch/city commute.

  • it's only designed to do 12 laps on the longest velodrome n thats it

  • surely soviet stuff beats all of the above, dontcha think so?

    oh you knows it!
    GF finished last week.
    Ukraine trip is imminent....

  • Henry, fetch me some lovely USSR frame with a 55cm top tube please.

  • can't wait...

    Gleb, I'll let you know as soon as I do.

    It is much further forward than being on the drops. Drop bars don't end up with the drops over the front half of the wheel. It would be like using drop bars with a 30cm stem I would think.

    Queue one of your overlays...
