Nicolai Helius AC!

Just built up, riding really well.

Yes, I am tall, yes it's a gate, tyre logos not lined up, dirty wheels and old saddle. :o)

Yep, like it

old saddles are the best, its like having an old friend 😀

How's it a 'bit different'?

It's a mountain bike….

I am still undecided on Nicolai's I wouldn't buy one… Yours looks good though 🙂

Different? Well, I haven't seen any other Helius ACs on here…

And yes, old saddles rule!

I'd agree that's different. It isn't an On-One, Radley, Cotic, Turner or Orange. They seem to be the default STW bikes de jour!

Nice, and not too gate looking.

it looks to small for you?

I quite miss my Nicolai. Is that not a tad too small? sorry 😐

that much seatpost showing + layback makes it look like it's a bit small for you?

Do nicolai recommend having the post below the TT/ST junction? is it?

Different? Well, I haven't seen any other Helius ACs on here…

I've seen hundreds! 😀

Sorry for not getting overexcited, but it's just another mountain bike to me. The thread title led me to believe it was something exotic, exciting, unique, special…

Ferrit likes it and it's quite smart. Stop pissing on his chips you horrid little man. 😀

Sorry. Imagine my dissapointment when I looked in, all excited, to be greeted by pics of a fairly unamazing bike. 🙁

I'm sure it's a nice bike, and that Ferrit loves it though, which is the main thing.

Full suspension = tick
26er = tick
Different = no

Nice though!

Yeah, leave me alone you bunch of bullies! ;o)

I take your point about it looking small. I always have problems finding frames to fit – I have long legs and a short torso so XL frames always feel way too long reach-wise. The seat is actually a bit too high for me in that pic there too.

On the difference things, I didn't mean as in a crazy different idea, just a brand that you don't usually hear much about!

….and yet you felt the need to post your displeasure. Bless!

I've 2 out of the 5 (and just sold a third), does that mean I'm cool and hip and with the zeitgeist, or just not that imaginative.
