I'm talking modern bikes - no old stuff, new but retro is allowed.

Let's see your favourties.

I'd take his skills over his bike, but unfortunately that ain't gonna happen, so I'll have to make do with looking at this:

I've said it before but based on looks alone I'm a bit of a stalker where candodavids Curtis is concerned.

I thought the Scott was goppin'.....
Then I saw that God-awful black thing. Jesus H Christ. They wouldn't even let that thing up the ugly tree in the first place!

Doubt I'd ride this if I could afford one. I'd just have it sitting in a pool of light in the middle of the living room.

That Curtis up there is really nice.

Even though it breaks my heart to post this, it has to be...

Although in true STW style, after an uncertain start my own bike is growing on me looks-wise...

Thank you for that. After the day I've had I really needed a little chuckle and that arrived at the perfect moment.

Don't care if it's not niche enough, these are stunning in the flesh;

That Breadwinner is rather lovely, too!

Do have quite a strong prescription...

Sucker for bikes that look engineered rather than styled.

I know it's purely subjective but that soulcraft is gopping. Never mind the stem, or the colour - I think those seat stays look bloody awful meeting the seat tube above the top tube like that.

Who started the trend for having the name on a different coloured square edged background? It looks crap- like a stolen bike with a sticker on it.

That SS Niner ^,is the only pretty bike posted so far and even that is in Apollo Kaos orange ๐Ÿ™

Well, it is all about what you prefer after all. I had a DW link 5 Spot. Great bike. Hideous rear end. Still loved it though. Mainly as I couldn't see the rear end when on it...

Presume you mean the second one I posted?

It's a Production Privee Shan 917, same as the one posted by gachet below mine.

I like the way the Shan looks awesome in the gulf colours and pretty dull (and imo a bit gawky and leggy) in any other colour. I reckon any bike would look good in that scheme tbh

Agreed Northwind. I was so close to getting my Nicolai done in those colours, based on this picture.

Not sure it would help the Nicolais replacement though ๐Ÿ˜‰

Like the look of either Kingdom vendetta 2 or Stanton switchback in green, raw or ti.

HTs are definitely the most attractive IMO (apart from the clown wheel ones ๐Ÿ™‚ )

So far the Shan is the only one doing it for me.

Mothers always prefer their own children and all that!

I quite like the stealth look. This is top of my lust-list at the moment:
