Cheaper than a Zen too.

^^^^^ Love that bike.
My favourite bit though is the headtube stickers.

Can someone explain carbon chainrings to me?

Brilliant

I don't get how you trust carbon after your incident Indra.
Makes no sense to me... Especially on a chainring

I don't trust carbon at all, I know one day I'm gonna skid and rip the chainstays off or wheelie and take the headtube off.

well you have to die of something I suppose..

I really don't like that F5 bro pro tbh.
Tub rear and brakeless, carbon chainring, bar angle, MSW, ugly HT and forks >>>>>>>>>>

Was a contender to porn until i spotted the anodized chainring bolts. <<<<<<<<<<<<< staying here

You may be in the wrong thread....

I'll give you the bar angle though

Tub rear and carbon chainring mean no skidding. wrong thread

Ha! But surely something can be hippidy hop without being about to skid?

Surely skidding a tub is the epitomy of slave?

Skidding tubs is splendid, but you need glue not tape - I've ripped too many valves off perfectly nice tubs

Depends on whether you think HHSB is about photos on the interwebs or rad riding...
I'm inclined to agree with B0N0R on this one. It's also part of the reason bike stands in on-location photos piss me off too.
I feel self conscious enough taking my proper camera with me for the sole purpose of photographing my biek - imagine what twats these people must feel with a bike stand in their bags....

.. or in the back of their car, with their pedal-less bike.

My "on location" photos are taken with phone...

I do not understand why you would put a basket on a Vig.

HHSB nothing to understand.
Fakenger style.

I think it's one of those CPH handlebar/basket combos

Bingo !

I also will admit to feeling like a twat whilst taking a picture of my bike.

HHSB should be about both, although I've see them as being all about excess; aesthetically, ergonomically, financially...then put some risers on it.

Interesting to see the change of bikes from the start of this thread to now. Before it was multi-coloured lo-pros with disc wheels, now we're seeing all-carbon stealth track builds and NJS builds in here. The latter I have issue with: salve to me is oversized alu or carbon preferably, and while they are expensive, they are also their own little sub-genre.

Oh fuck, thinking too much, lets do some skidz

So I keep coming across bikes like this I like, they're not porn, not anti, not rat/beater/frankenbikes, trick, Lo-Pros or polo bikes...

So I thought it was about time we had a thread to discuss and admire our favourite guilty pleasures... I'm not talking HHSB as in colour coded everything, supreme stickers and ironic saddle angle.... Just something kind of awesome that you would actually own or ride.

Welcome to the HHSB thread!

Word is double spokk are making a comeback this year, I'm saying go next level with the double Hed... BOOM all up in yer face!

Shame about it getting stripped, but yeah I guess it wasn't a bike to be ridden discreetly.

Oh my dais.
this is my dirty dream bike.

Love this. /shame

all from 1st page..

I need to see someone skid that Corima

I would love one, they only seem to come in smaller person sizes though.

Kalavinka?
