Wow that is odd…is that a chain tensioner? in a tattoo? tis a bit like that girl with the fixie tattooed on her chest with a front brake.

Cable discs

His nipple seems to be a bit mis-placed!! 😯

this one…. nice tat but why not leave the brake off? maybe the tat would have been cheaper too?

why is the brake operated by a chain tensioner?

I would love to punch him.

Is that singletrack tattoo suppose to stop you noticing the owners child like arm?

****

if they are real of course.

its the owner of this place apparently

who god?

Virtually all of those tats are totally crap. It's bizarre. If you're getting something that you'll take to your grave surely you'll want something that a)means a lot to you and b)is as high quality as you can afford.

The simpler ones look much better IMO, and Mark singletrack tat shows an awful lot of commitment.

Not bike related – but wrong nontheless!

Gruesome.

I reckon the OP pic must have been going for that cyborg look but failed miserably.

The spiderman piece has been copied quite a few times – the quality of the artwork is amazing, but not for me!

spiderman one is rad!

divs

as someone up there ^ said, simple is often better. Some of those are, frankly not very well executed.

Each to their own

…and there's this one.

Quite like that wrist one.. good mixture of the raised fist and biking 🙂

Seen the Spiderman one. Utterly, utterly brilliant!

H.S.T referencing fist with wheels?

My favourite…

I had this done years ago, but somehow doesn't seem so appropriate now I'm 60. And I have a Trek now!

Love the spiderman one.

I can't believe how that Spiderman one is real
how do they get white ink?
not convinced

You can get white ink, it's used for shading and subtle stuff. You can get UV ink that just shows under blacklite as well. The wheeled fist design came from a site I found five or six years ago, some sort of cycle action group in Chicago. The logo is available on patches and buttons from http://urbanvelo.org/
the one on the forearm is bikeopeli, the mountain biking relative of kokopeli, an Anasazi Indian joker spirit.

judy-rockshox do you have to pay a royalty to mike sinyard for that like you do to use the horst link?

I love that it has a mirror on it

😀

and a broom!

Not biking related but this is possibly the best tattoo ever.

'Yeah dude, I rock!' 🙂

How good do these look when you're old and fat?

Permanent fashion. Hmm.

al.

Not bike related but this chap seems seriously impressed with his look. He's ice cool/cool ice:

Never have understood the point of twattoos myself…
