There's something about it I like, even it's only because BS did the trussed fork first

Custom bar/stem too?

I'm strangely drawn to it.

Why can't 'niche' manufacturers make good looking 'normal' bikes instead of f*cked up sh*t tips like that thing?

I like the name.
But it looks like the front end is ready to accept some hanging baskets ? ... just the thing for spring. (all those curves have confused me)

actually Merlin did a truss fork too BITD (on a e-stay!)

Curved trussed fork strangely doesn't work with the curved seatstays, which themselves look very nice.

As always, a touch marmite. Some redeeming features, though, and an attempt to something more than 8 tubes in a double diamond.

How do these freak looking things actually ride? If they ride good, then fair play for thinking out of the box.

I bet you could leave it unlocked outside a train station in Bristol all day and it'd still be there when you got back.

I have to agree with the double curve not looking somehow right - a curve too much perhaps?

This one seems easier on the eye, the Stella I think it's called
