It's a shiny standard double diamond frame - sorry doesn't really do anything for me (but then I am a carbon fetishist).

Looks like any other road bike. Boring.

That is rather nice, not sure why but I am really taken by this at the moment:

All this does is confirm how awful most road bikes look to me IMO etc etc

Now I'm not into fixies in the slightest, nor road bikes really, but that fixie jackass posted is lovely!

Not as lovely as this though... It's still my screen saver...

Jackass's offering is definitely winning for me at the moment - could turn into a good thread yet!

mboy - is it just me, or does that "track bike" have big fat tyres rather than deep rims? If so <retch>

Here's my initial offering if we're doing fixies (trying to think of a proper road bike)

So if 'normal' frame designs aren't your bag how about this:

It's got 26" rims with 2.5" Maxxis Hookworm tyres on 8)

It's a style thing methinks. Personally, I'd love one, though if it were mine it'd have a freewheel, and MASSIVE disc brakes. Would get used primarily for attacking Alpine Road descents at massive speeds, wearing my motorbike leathers, getting my knee down on the corners ๐Ÿ˜›

No, that's minging, but it does remind me of another pretty cool bike:

Is that the 2020 Langster??
