    no "rules" just obsevations

    . So you can't apply a formula.

    true. sort of why i ask

    There's a thread for us>>>>>>>>

    AWESOME! ahem very nice.

    The first rule of HHSB is there are no rules
    Is that because, where we're going we don't need roads?

    Thomsons are ubiquitous= generic= boring and on noob build almost seem "try hard"

    @ Roboto not quite but doffs cap accordingly

    Read all 843 pages. So let me see if I got this correct. The recipe for a HHSB (Starting from top down) is:

    Saddle: Flite/ Selle/ Condor/Zoolander can qualify (Fuq a Brooks & no melting saddles)
    Post: unbranded (avoiding Thomson) Matched to Stem & Cranks & Chain ring
    Stem: (see above) 1” or 1 1/8, slammed (for aesthetics) on certain builds in-line with TT and somewhat chunky (but actually in a comfortable position when not in photo-shoots)
    Bars: Compact drops/Bullhorns/Risers. Tastefully taped or long grips. (Oury are old school here>>>Anti) never Ergo drops
    Frame: Mostly Pursuit geo (Only BMW Gangsta’s compact geo gets a pass). If Skinny Steel, dictates build. If NJS, dictates build. Classic frame can also dictate build (but not always).
    Color can vary but murdered out =Late midschool HHSB. Naked Crabon gets a pass.
    Rattle can is tempting fate.
    Fork: Match set to frame or Alpina & Wound up (Rizla clearance = Big Daddy Kane- Smooth Operator)
    Cranks: Rotor are winner. Also Sugino
    Chain ring: If has winnar history= Win (Zen) Tooth size: try not to look like a Poof
    Chain: yes (no color, no beads)
    Pedals: Platforms w/ restraps = midschool HHSB. Look Keo= JayZ Tom Ford HHSB. Speedplays= no
    Wheels: (New School build) +/-50MM deeps (Shamals, Ventos, Pistas, etc…)de stickered Chrome or black. Coloured is played out/tip toward anti.

    OR

    (Classic build/Steel/NJS) -30MM deeps (H Plus, Open pros, etc… ) Never a chub. Never QR.
    Tyres: cant fail w/ Grator Sikns

    -Front Spok or rear diks: old school cracked out HHSB basically the ODB of HHSB or maybe New School= Danny Brown
    Danny Brown - "Monopoly" (Official Video) - YouTube

    -Wacky parts: (i.e. Look stem) playing Russian roulette. Requires extreme care to not end up anti
    *
    HOF HHSB God Tier candidates*: The Yellow Condor(and all the yellow sons), Midnight blue Cannondalé Tarck, Maroon Bosomworth, Colnago Dream Pistas, Red BMW, Purple Vivalo, Marcus’ Ono, Reen’s Kagero, GT triple triangles…

    But it all has to come together a look well collected, fast, and ooze style
