    What about that Seven TT bike, or the FS from that thread the other day, both truly hideous.

    A lot of folk think my Fuel's ugly, I'm not a huge fan aesthetically:

    I agree. The guy is probably into that new strangulation thing and is hallucinating.

    Can't believe those Jones frame and fork cost 4k! I'd pay a quid, nothing more.

    mind you I've owned some ugly bikes,

    Felt virtue – top bike, fast as **** but ugly
    Sinister splinter- Built like a brick outhouse definately not pretty
    swoopy framed mount vision in pearly white- fab trail bike, looks like a hunched back munter
    lots of on-ones – agicultural welding of gas pipes but I love them

    I seem to choose bikes that suit me 😀

    The point about all the strange fork and stay designs that you see on lots of modern Italian carbon road frames is the designers clearly have no idea what they're doing, or what they're trying to achieve,
    OK, you can commend them for trying to be different, but thats about it.

    And to add to the above, With most ugly MTBs, their 'differently comelyness' is a function of things like shock placement, pivots and such.
    With road bikes THERE IS NO EXCUSE, OK? 🙂

    Who remembers Kirk Precision? Though I never owned one, I found their ugliness strangely endearing.

    I remember them. Made of magnesium I think. Odd, but somewhat likeable.

    Clubber's Klein Mantra is the winner, not only for being a minger, but being a singlespeed full susser with a rigid fork. That proper inovation, that! Well done, Dylan! 😉
