[Closed] Good lord, that's ugly

Special bike for a special person

A little bit of sick in my mouth at the sight of this

Yup.

Can understand that...

Its FUGLY... 😯

Almost make the On One Carbon 456 look good.

[i]Almost[/i]..

My c456 is gorgeous, i'll have you know.

That thing, on the other hand...

It gives the impression (to me) that geometry has been compromised to accommodate large wheels.

S-Works?.....not in this case.

Proves it's not just men that care about having more inches. 😉

blurb on the link suggest geometry compromised to allow short people (women are people too) to ride clown bikes without banging their tootsies on the stupidly large front wheel (toe overlap).

A Fate worse than death?

You can pretty much apply that to most 29ers 😉

Looks ok... For a spesh

Inches -> Niches

I see what you did there. 🙂

That's why they pay me the big bucks on tour....

😉

is it made of melted wellies?

I like it and as long as it's as fast a hell, who cares if some lardy weekend warriors are offended by it. 😆

Without meaning to drag up the whole 'why 29er' thing again - that bike has blatently been built just for the sake of it! Who would buy a 15" one of those? Plonkers, thats who.

29er Keith has is right - tall folk on 26ers look awkward, same as minime on a 29er - it's all about scale.

And its fugly.

I've seen worse....

What d'you have to go and do that for?

Flashy; are you available for bar mitzvahs?

or, to accommodate fixed fork design.
