    Open to offers for Lady P, Reynolds 653 & silver soldered.

  • ill take the bars if he splits

  • Undibs.

  • mebe he take phifty dorrah?

  • m8 that wud make sum sick fixie conversion!

  • But only if ridden in typical Obree gear inch, e.g. 200"

  • For whom did he build this? Is it another one of those bikes that cycling-mad men give to a wife who may not be interested in cycling?

  • As far as I know it was for himself.

    He has definitely ridden it - I read an interview a few months ago and the bike was in the background of the accompanying pictures.

  • Can't find pics of this anymore

  • If anyone buys it, it would be as a souvenir. I've seen him ride it and he has such an odd position on this bike that I didn't think it could be ridden comfortably by anyone else.

  • The lady penelope? Aren't you thinking of old Faithful?

  • No, Isn't Old Faithful the track bike with the funny bars? That's probably even more unrideable by anyone else.

    I think it's fair to say that Mr Obree is one of a kind.

  • Old Faithful is his hour record bike.. the famous washing machine-bearing skinny BB thing that's in a museum in Glasgow I think.

  • I need a seat post like that. Amazing.

  • I can only find this picture:

    I think it's this bike he was selling (unless he has more pink bikes.)
