    all your bikes are lovely c_g with normal sized wheels and sensible stuff, not the blinkin terrifying gop fest of munters that we have here.

    i like that turner, it’s similar to a sinister, build it strong let the fashionistas fall by the wayside with their fragile tat

    When you open this thread it should play the X factor/Omen music in the background.

    Some say this is ugly, but I love it and think it has a certain beauty 😀

    This on the other hand is definitely ugly, but cool nonetheless:

    And this is not the most attractive of bikes, but was great fun to ride (once I’d moved away from the alfine/hammerschmidt combo!)

    Best thread in ages )

    Rode great, looked awkward and embarrassed for itself. Coyly hiding it’s 50mm of spacers.. I liked like a pet dog with a case of mange.

    Flashes – that frame and fork with different kit on it would be one of the prettiest bikes around? In fact I’d make you an offer but it looks safely a bit too small for me…

    Stoner – I think that works, it has potential ugly duckling quality.

    Nicola however, well it’s not good is it? : )

    Stoner.

    If you don’t want people to point and laugh at your mongobike just park it behind mine. They won’t even notice it then. 😉

    so why the zimmer-frame holding it up?

    it’s a tuning fork of niche, once the vibrations get to a specific level of beardie (approximately 0.88 of a Jeff or an B flat minor if you tune by ear) the bike transforms into the most awsomist riding machine ever and eats gnarcorists for breakfast.

    : ) Niche expressed in units of Jeff.. like the roadie’s unit of hardness, the Jens. A diamond is somewhere around 0.6 Jens.

    Imagine if you could reach a full 1.0 JeffJens.. Could you ride Iditarod in your pants on ss half-fat monstercross bike?
