This feels like a wanker bike version of a Golf Club thread quote…

Wanker bike is the golf club of lfgss nay?

There's also the watch thread if you want to meet people who spend money on things that are expensive for the sake of being expensive.

Dev and scanning costs must be a lot on that amount.

Not if home lab. Also negotiating cost on batch development can bring down cost quite a bit

Based on the prices I've seen people sell second hand watches for, I'm actively avoiding that thread.

You’re probably right, I’ve done my fair share of home developing but 90 odd rolls would be some undertaking for sure, unless you have one of those jumbo Paterson tanks.

95 rolls

That's going to result in a hell of a lot of shit photos

Kinell. The artisanal U-brake really sets it off.

And flipping the bike upside down just to get a picture of it...!

I know carbon is banned and tyres should be a certain size but this evidence needs to be seen by the jury

HHSGB >>>>

@Tijmen is to blame for this bike

Can't be "G" if it doesn't have any gears? Point taken though: HHSB maybe

I think it'd be fine with a higher gear. Ugly bike tho

G for that most loathsome of things

Gravel

I don't know if @Maj has worked out where HHSGB fits into the grand scheme of things

imo hhsgb is for blingy drop bar bikes people ride on dirt, underused thread

that surly is not a WBH, it's a SSCX :)

Maybe there needs to be a generic thread where you post bikes and @Maj assigns a hypothetical title of thread it would go in.

Edit: assuming this thread doesn't already fulfil that role

I see you.
😤

That surly is a mess tho, 50 shades of blue, nice cross tyres on adult mag wheels, tyres for cross but not the clearance.

Japanese funny bikes >>>>

i don't really understand it

Man, none of us do.

Might be a repost
