Hey, I've been rocking the Sebago look for decades, but pedal pushers? That, sir, is fighting talk! 😀

😀
tis only cos I have deck shoe envy - can't wear the blasted things 'correctly' as going sock-less for me is not a good thing..

..and going with socks truly is an error...... just like the 'mudguards' on that steed to the rear of shot.... 😀

must be for all those people doing rad street stuntz on fixies: the hookworm being the perfect tyre for that sort of thing. I'd prefer a bmx personally...

just noticed it seems to have a seat tube that goes all the way up to the saddle rails. So niche even your shorter friends can't have a go on it?

nickc, on a BMX they're a great street tyre. Tough, grippy and roll well.

On a drop handlebar, brakeless fixie? Erm....?

OK, an addition, on a 26" wheeled street/jump bike, they're a great street tyre. Tough grippy and they roll well.

On a drop handlebar, brakeless fixie? Erm....?

Liking the integrated headseat but Im undecided about the extended seat tube,I have been pondering about it for my (in the future) custom frame.Very clean (sano) but not 100% convinced.

The one at the back seems to have the mudguards of my old Raleigh Arena.

The front one really does win a pointless prize - is of the design that was used simply to protect the brake caliper...

I like it as well.

I foresee Hookworms having a very big future on my cargo bike (when I get one). Perfect for that use.
