I'm enjoying my new Pompetamine.

However, I note it appears to have World Champion rings on the seat tube.

WTF? Isn't it poor etiquette to have these unless your product has actually won a World Championship? Have they?

I'd peel the ****ers off but I think they're lacquered over ๐Ÿ˜ก

Did they use Planet-x bikes at the world champ track events?

That X-Terra thing isn't it? Fella won it on a Planet X.

is that a UCI event though?
or are they real rainbow stripes instead of yellow/black/red/green/blue ?
this means the bike belongs to a friend of Dorothy

Jeez, as I recall it was in australia and the fella was on a On-one, just not a regular model and he won the round, which means that you can then stick the rainbow on. Didn't his seatpost snap for the second round or something? There was a lass riding them too, think she modelled some new lyrca too.

I'd google but I'm at work atm.
