Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

What would be an example of a HHSB, with brakes then? IMO they ruin the aesthetics of a track bike.

took the brake off a week after the photo though

They all look better without brakes though.

brakes can look nice, it's shitty cross top levers on track drops that looks rubbish.

While on the subject of brakes. My cross post...

In the vain hope of beautifying the front end of my Smash I have just bought the following for 15 ponds...

Apparently they are a bit shit, so will report back with results. (Hooge pic fail)

So it goes behind the fork. Will report back.

Still have to see the lever and cable.

This it true.

Also it may just make it look like you're trying too hard.
What bike is it going on?

beautifying the front end of my Smash

Mash

A little tweaking might be needed... PM me her address and I'll take care of that.

Looks familiar but that must just be the setting.

Yup, love SF.

New Spike track hubs

any one know the model of that san marco saddle?

I'm thinking of building a cheap wanabe slave dolan - would get it powdercoated some ludicrous colour, but can't decide on the wheels - either some halo deep rims - or open pros in the grey anodized colour, mainly to save some weight

Open prod fo sho

I'd love to stick brakes on this just to make the No Brakes decal, you know, like, ironic.

Massive re.
