GREEN FUCKING TYRE?!?!?! MISMATCH SADDLE/BARTAPE COLOUR?!?!?! YOU FUCKING DISAPPOINT ME YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!!

HAVE YOU POSTED YOUR BIKE IN THE ANTI-PORN THREAD ALREADY? IF NOT, YOU FUCKING SHOULD!!

asshole.

Those green fucking tyres cost even more than a weekly dose of the medication you seem to have forgotten to take

Did I put it in the porn thread? No. Saddle was temporary while I still had the S2 built, green tyres are Pave's for winter - the bike is for riding, not for looking at.

Fuck off with your basic trolling. It was funny the first time, now it's just boring.

off topic but, are those lengths of dado rail? I'm looking to do something similar.

Yeah, that is a lovely bit of dado.

Another S2 over here repping for the accountancy profession alongside my dental bredren.

thumps chest

Post-bike fit stem is now fully slammed on Scherrit's advice.

@Vanneau both Dan and i knew that this isnt about how expensive your equipments are. Go back to school and you could probably learn something or two.

@dan I know what those tyres are. Good set you got there for the purpose.

All bikes are for riding, never for looking. And for a guy like you who may have ridden for years, for thousands miles, and to critize a bike not to be a porn worthy just because it has funny angles, slight upward handlebar setup, is to me really stupid, uneducated opinion.

Aesthetics are important, but fit always come first. Then you work around the desired geometry, contact points etc. you knew this already, no?

To keep the joke running --

asshole.

Green tyre club needs it's own topic...

You do realise why there's a 'bike porn' thread separate to the 'functional bikes' and manufacturer-specific threads, don't you?

Exactly. If a bike is posted in bike porn, it's judged purely on it's aesthetics. End of.

I've grown to love the way they look actually.

Its a standard oak bead profile from Leylands (or any hardware store) mounted with countersunk brass screws.

Its quite frame / crank length specific. So set it out carefully first.

Very helpful, thank you.

Meh. I like Dans R5. Just looks nicely balanced, like the geo and size fit the rider.

Asthetically I like the S2s most. Just the right amount of tube profiling.

Just to be clear, in proper American English....

Sur - vey - low

#carryon

Canadian English with an Italian root word, so it's actually 'Cher-vey-low'

Ok, only if the 'low' is said through the nose...

Besides...where is the Italian root? In the factory cafe?

'cervello' means brain

Sp.

Cervello + Vélo = Cervélo = 'Brain Bike' = I'm dead clever I ride a Cervélo, etc

So Italian + French?

Just go with "sir" and then the "velo" from "VeloNews". That's how you pronounce it in English. Why? Because we say so, never mind the accent aigu on the e. English doesn't have the accent aigu, so why pay attention to it. If you're talking about Cervelo in French on the other hand, you'd better honor the accent.

From the horse's mouth.

Yeah, fuck those Italians. We just took one of their words for our company and well basically we decide how you say it.
Love your sweet Bianshee fixie, by the way.

HEY ASSHOLE

I gotta sinelli

It's a French Canadian company, so unlikely to have any Italian influence in the naming- but I think it's a sort of made up word. I always pronounce the Cé with a soft C, as Sé.
