[Closed] Could we have an Inbred photo thread please?

Oh ok, seeing as it's you... 🙂 (any excuse actually... I was over at On One this week and it reminded me how I really, really miss mine.)

Nice . . . almost as many as me GTTH. Those sliding dropout versions were pretty versatile weren't they?

Miss 'em all

They have a pretty good frame and parts deal on at the mo' if you need another push. £199 for frame, rigid forks, pivotal seat and post, Mary bars and Oury grips - would've been rude not to 😉

Built up in good time for the [url= http://www.wentwood50.co.uk/ ]Wentwood Goshawk Enduro[/url] then Mamadirt?

Yeah, I'd seen those, mamadirt - it was one of the reasons I went, but I seem to have walked out of there* with a new carbon road frame instead. 😳 The 456 jump frame bundle looked pretty compelling too. Must resist...

*having paid for it, of course! 🙂

LOL @ Slugwash

Sitting here alternating between the tin of Roses, box of Celebrations, licorice allsorts and some rather nice breadsticks and dips all washed down with leftover New Year's Eve beverages, I may not be particularly race-fit by March, Psling 😆 but reckon I'll give it a go anyway as it's so close.

I'm on a singlespeed rather than the geared version. Was out today round Glentress Red and really enjoyed it. It's a cheap and cheerful frame, but the lack of mechs and gears keeps mine light. Enjoy it when you get it.

When you say light, how light we talking out of interest?

Never weighed it, and I wouldn't like to pluck a figure out of the air, but it feels lighter to pick up than my Giant Anthem X2. A huge amount of the weight saving is probably in the forks, as I think the frame comes in at close to 5lbs. It feels light enough when out of the saddle to sprint up short climbs.

while I wait for all the bits for my spangly birthday build.

😯

What on Earth have you bought now???

Yet another tiny bike?

Yeah, tiny spangly black one 8) . Thought I could manage with just the Commencal and started to sell everything else then spotted the bargain frame and parts deal 😳 . . . just as well I hadn't ebayed the wheels really 😆

oh xckeith1 you makes i larf!

Thought I could manage with just the Commencal

I can't keep up with all this. I think we need a live news feed* on here, so that we can stay up to date with your latest tiny bike-buying antics!

(*Updated every minute at least)

As I'm building one up I notice a lot of the above inbred builds look like they have really fat tyres 2.2 and above, so is this the case?

[url= http://mamadirt.fotopic.net/c317596_73.html ]There you go Elf[/url] 😉 - most of them end up there (apart from those that don't get past the build stage . . . there've been one or two 😳 )

By Christ that is a lot of tiny bikes. How many??? 75 or something??? Mental...

Love this pic:

Ah the DBI Patriot . . . that spot is just beneath the motorway not a million miles from my house. Graffiti changes almost as often as my bikes 😆 . . . just counted . . . 14 last year (not including the folding shopper and Schwinn cruiser that didn't get past the kitchen door and two BMX frames that never got built) 🙁

I will one day marry you Mamadirt. It's only a matter of time... 😉

Don't worry Mama; I shall bring a tiny bike of my own...

Why is it that Bez's pic looks like a 'documentary' image of an Inbred that's addicted to Crack and Heroin, and living on the streets?

INBRED'S ARE SUPER AWESOME.

Sorry, but I had so much fun on that bike. Maybe it was just timing and I'd have had as much fun on any bike but on mine, everything just fitted together like a glove. Brant even changed the geometry from mine (one of the original 853's) because he felt it was wrong. What a cock. It was bang on as far as I was concerned. I had 4 years of pure heaven riding that thing.

A zillion upgrades before it looked like this:

Here's mine....originally had 2.2 Spesh Enduro's on them but they're too big really, so it's now normally got Speed Kings or a set of slicks on another set of wheels for commuting duties....

This is more your size surely 🙂

Hey Mamadirt - ah the return of the inbred - nice! 😀

I think you're bike changing ways have rubbed off on me, as after 3 rides I've already changed the Spider! And... have just bought a bmx?!?! 😯

(In fairness, the Spider is clearly an awesome bike, just a bit too big for me and the bmx is mainly to avoid potential thiefs checking out our bikes when we muck about on them in the street... Maybe I'm a bit paranoid after the theft? ...but hey, Mr. MM is more than happy to have a bmx to play on, so there weren't any arguments there!)

Fancy getting another to run geared.
Riding fun per £ spent its unbeatable.

And then it was like this for a bit:

And then like this for a long time:

And I also had a red SS:

And does this qualify as an Inbred? The steel 456 is/was labelled 'Inbred', so why not?

EDIT
In those pics, there's 3 sets of forks, 3 cranks, 3 sets of brakes. 3 seatposts, bars etc...... But the front wheel is the same one, all the way though.... 🙂
