Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

There's one for sale on here.

Massive HHSB build.

Although I may buy it.maybe.

Classic parts on a modern frame looks shit.

reverse looks boss though.

Also i will build a front wheel to match soon/
Oh and silver chain ring bolts.

Any more info on this? I'm seriously tempted.

Looks like a planet X

Batmo-sled?

Framewise that is how a tonic could look and should look. Steel, flat TT, supertight back end. Best tonic frame I've seen by a mile. Fork is meh...seems a shame to have such a tight rear when front will never get close. Rest of build fills me with apathy only.

Great cranks though.

Just not there...

The T1 up-page needs to sort out it's rear wheel and it's computer placement, otherwise it's fuckin' mint like.

Landshark win..

As a poseur sled it's got it nailed. Nicely shot too.

Not a fan of build. Works with drops only.

Also has bad bar angle and no tape either.

Trying to think what changes to Orlobropro are needed to bring it to this level of sweet....

Am thinking it's mainly contact points... Need RB010 or similar bulls, regular quill stem... Not sure about seat / seatpost... Both are beaterish at the minute.

Definitely not an Arione though. Look out of place on anything made of steel.

A clean and a non-camera-phone photo might help too.

with that amount of seatpost shown I would consider giving some shallow drops a go, what do you think?
