Hip Hop Skid Bikes / Hipster Sleds / HHSB

Wasn't this a forum build? what happened to it? I'd love to see it finished

It was, can't remember whom, but would also love to see it finished and getting skidded to death in London's famous London.

Anyone got a pic of John and Kris's tandem?

Needs black rattlecan and nicer seat.

no layback and longer stem. Seems like you're already pushing your seat back a bit as it is.

It seemed to fit more like a normal bike than a HHS, it look too comfortable and sensible beside the severe lack of brake.

^^doesn't quite work like that.

I think it's too big for you Morgan...

Quiet you!

Decent budget fixed but I don't really see what's slave about it.

Same here I'm pretty stuck as to what makes it slave/not slave

bullhorns, risers, brakless. Come on, not everyone can put a nitto slider on a Laser Pista and throw an front disc on.

Then the slave game isn't for everyone, I'm the first to admit that my seta isn't very slave although the Lopro probably is.

Contentious Opinion time: Much like music genres, the riding style and dress of a cyclists also hugely contributes to the slaveness of the whole operation

for example, the fucking muppet in full BMC lycra and then trainers on the recent Cornfed edit on prolly. Very slave due to totally inappropriet mix of clothes. Also bike is mad slave, and riding is stupid...

Above post was a musing brought on by this. Like, the guys Dolan up there could be slave as heck if he's busting one handed wheelies the wrong way down the motorway and giving everyone the finger

Actually sounds like a decent thread , my entire build came in at £370 so it's not too bad

Exactly. I'm not a very slave individual, but I have a hilarious lo-pro which, in the right hands, could be.
