    I’m just curious.

    The chrome all over the bike was AWESOME/EPIC 😉

    Downtube = “Exo???”
    Top Tube = Millen????

    Excel Millenium

    Cant find any ref to it on the web.

    Perhaps it’s made from Unobtanium ?

    Look, there’s a guy riding a bike…let’s laugh at it 😐

    There must be better targets for your ridicule.

    I quite like that (the “everything chromed” bit of it, not the BSO bit of it that is)…

    At least it doesn’t have useless and heavy forks or rear suspension. Could be far worse really.

    I also like the Chrome.

    Its not ridicule. I want to know what it is . I secretly do like the chrome 🙂

    I have a BSO in black [Havoc Sabre] …Ohh God. I use it for the pub and general rides to the shop etc. Dont care if it gets nicked.

    So who else has a BSO and would like to own up ?

    That’s not a BSO. Not long ago, some of the more senior forumites would have been lusting after something not too disimilar. And isn’t there a thread around here somewhere, about a stainless hardtail?

    err that isn’t a BSO it is a good quality bike with a nice chrome finish!

    Could we get over ourselves, I’d have killed for that in 1992.

    So if it’s not a BSO and it’s from circa 1990’s… what make/model could it be ??

    Im inferring it’s a derogatory term!
    Ps the chrome bike looks pretty cool imo

    BSO – usually applied to supermarket hardtails with the forks on backwards retailing for £ 69 or full sussers with those oversize Y shaped frames.
