Alos what’s this “ur biek iz sarcin”, is it just poking fun at nippers mis-typing or something more sinister, it’s a bit before my time…

Saracen used to make sublime bikes, the sort of thing early UK MTB riders lusted after. Am sure that many of us here used to look longingly at Kili Ultras etc, back int eh early ’90s.
Then Saracen gave up on quality completely and made utter, utter abominations. The MBUK style of speech, which has many etymological links to txt-speak, translated this in to an insult by saying “UR BIK IZ SARACING” as a way of saying that your dandyhorse was in some way far inferior to the velocipede of the person delivering the insult.
Saracen are now, I am pleased to say, making some fine looking steeds.
