Marmite bike – shield your eyes

I finally got it built up today after a bit of a wait for the fork to arrive.

Travers Bat Fastard
Lauf Carbonara fat forks
100mm Clown Shoe rims
Big Fat Larry tyres
1 x 10 set up
Jones Loop Bars
Brooks Cambium saddle
Ti seatpost

You have two houses in your garden? Greedy boy John.

I think it’s pushing that tree over :wink:

I like it. Love the Lauf forks. Will look forward to a ride report.

That’s a beauty and I want a go, now please.

“Marmite” means some people will love it. Therefore, that is not a marmite bike :-)

Actually, it’s just the forks in my onion…

Do your neighbours talk to you? :wink:

Love it !!
Interested to hear how it rides too

I am just working out how many mm of undamped travel you now have on the front.

That is **** hideous! It’d better ride nicely :mrgreen:

Rob, 39 – dislikes Marmite

60mm and 4.8″ of undamped travel

Bikes like that are way beyond my needs, but I would soooo love to have a go on one.

Aaaaaaaaaaahhh!

Aaaaaaahhhhh hahahaaaaaargh!

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Jeeez that’s hideous :)

:lol:

I hate myself for saying it but that’s well tidy…however…Mechanical discs? FAIL.

I’m heading out on it for a big ride tomorrow in the sun and heading up to the beaches and sand dunes.
Enjoy work ;-)

Oh my god

I am reeling here, seriously

So wrong it’s freakin awesome.

Mol, I can see you commuting on one of those!

A couple more shots for you (whether you want them or not)

Mol, I can see you commuting on one of those!

Good God, man! Have you no decency left?

That is very nice indeed.

Edit: I might have some ano blue bottle cage bolts somewhere, if I can find them you can have them.

Erm… Wow!

So wrong it just has to be right.

Lovely.

Uglier than a fight at a Klingon wedding.

Cracking bike! Love to take it for a pootle down local trails 8O

How much does she weigh?

Apart from the bars, I really like that.

Hmmm, suspension forks on a fat bike bother me regardless of type. And the bars wind me up.

If you lie it down does it pop back up like a weeble.

What is it?

Is that next to the A444 in Bedworth? Oh and as for the bike, I’m liking the look of it even the Lauf Fork, just not the handlebars, but then it’s your pride and joy to ride and of you findd them comfortable do be it. I still keep getting the itch and regulars fight the urge to scratch it without ditching one of my other bikes first.

The next generation Fat Bike from Travers Bikes http://www.traversbikes.com

With the new light weight fat 60mm fork from Lauf http://www.laufforks.com

It’s your bike, if you’re happy, then have a blast. Looks bloody awful to me mind you, but that’s just my opinion!

Damping is totally overrated! ;)

I’m sure they won’t but those forks just look like they will fold in half as soon as you hit a bump…

Have you ridden the forks yet John? Or tried grabbing the wheel and shoving it side to side to see if it hits the sides?
They are truly ugly but I really can’t wait for mine to arrive :-)
