Caramel cycles - £200 track bikes

http://www.caramelcycles.com/

The funniest looking track bikes with brakes I have seen

anyone who calls a shit wheelset something like "espresso" needs to be hit with a bat until they go do a useful job like sweeping the streets

i was literally emailing you, thought this would be of interest!

seen it all before

The website even shows how to ride like a bit of a twat:

YouTube- B&W caramel cycles special

wowsers

did he look at the road at all or just at the camera?

no he looks and pulls out anyway

awesome

hahaha!!!

at least it's intended use is appropriately shown.

ie. to be ridden by clueless fuckwits into oncoming traffic whilst they gorm and pose

ah thats how you "CYCLE"!

I had to step away from the computer before I gave myself a hernia laughing so hard.

Sadly you have been to rep worthy RPM, so no more can be awarded.

meticulously converted into single speed street weapon

Weapons, by weapons, for weapons

Can hippy merge this with the foffa and create threads? It'll save people a lot of time if they can find our reveiws of all three together?

I think this company will also make cheaper bikes, but source the parts differently....
ie. directly from the manufacturers, or at least wholesalers in Taiwan or China.

But I think it might be part of a trend, where people have looked at the growing cycling market,
and entered it, without necessarily having a large cycle related history.

Advertised on gumtree too.

"We only sell funky types of bikes, trendy wheels, cool colourful deep V rims, narrow handle bar street bikes to weave thru traffic in comfort with low maintenance reliability. Stylish simple well realised bikes and parts for rapid fast undetectable street transport and goodtimes for the people, amongst other caramel flavoured dreams."

This has to be a wind-up. The most elaborate joke ever played on the forum. C'mon guys who is it?

So why is this wheelset shit? (price notwithstanding) Has someone used them?

I corresponded with the owner of the company, and he believes that they are fabricated using a similar process to H+Son's rims.
But I haven't seen or tried them though.

tea bee

we are talking about the bikes on this thread

they are selling fixies with no foot retention

a big fucking fail

thus deserving ridicule

you also deserve ridicule as king cutter has already commented on the wheels and hubs on the actual wheel thread

Aren't all rims sort made the same way?

most i believe are extruded aluminium, but there is still the cross section design and do they have eyelets etc

More likely fabricated in a similar process to the Create wheels, a very similar process, in the same factory.

Not defending the guy, or his company, but somehow I don't believe the Create wheels are made in the same factory as these 43's. Just my opinion.

fair enough, I'm just a cynic. £90 for a set of deep section wheels is quite good really. Perfect for a budget build. Hell I'd probably buy some if I wasn't saving for some stupid carbon ones.

nice clean web-site.... however..

Bikes e,f,g,h... all look the fucking same "They ride like a dream"

Maybe I should have all 4..? have you seen the name they have given to delivery ??!!!! WAC

should it not be shitting by colostomy

not shipping by Colissimo?

That video has made my day, and it's only just begun! Utter hilarity.
