Fresh competition for paperclip bike's fugly title

AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG PASS THE MIND BLEACH

WTF and why? College project?

Apart from anything else the welds on the polished swingarm are abysmal, I believe the slang term is "chewing gum".

You're joking I hope? That's a disaster!

It's made from Chromoly too and they're not exactly slim tubes, combined with those wheels and the fit it'll probably weigh more than you!

Spokes and valve dont line up. STW FAIL!!!

I wouldn't dare ride it, TBH. It'll probably fall apart very quickly and be hideous to ride…….

WTF is that bso about???

Hmmm. A realllly, realllly fugly effort.
Calls it a 'mountain bike', and recommends no off road riding?? Sounds like he's not happy with its durability either.

That is just nasty!

so, is £1700 a fair price to offer????

Looks like you'd get about 5mm of travel out of the rear shock coupled with a rigid fork. Nice.

I really do hope you're joking. 🙂
As a bike to ride it's pretty worthless. Novelty value only, I'm afraid.

wooooooosh…….

i think turneround and the ebay seller are one and the same 😉
