I’ve just seen a carrera with an 11 sp Alfine with long mudguards and slicks.
And I thought: gosh that’s an ugly mishmash.
I’ve no doubt it is perfectly serviceable and performs its required function perfectly adequately and within a specific budget.
But It it wasn’t the prettiest.

I that spirit: show your mismatch work horses and bikes which are tools not glamour pusses

That’s one of my favourite sayings.

Zulus polished cow dung mixed with and straw for their floors.

I ride to work on a square tubed (think easton rad but cheaper) specialized with a oldskool curved-tubed fork, full mudguards and a rack. It looks pretty horrible!
