When you read the link you realise that lots of time & effort has gone into the build,but once again I don't get it.

Will look very nice outside of the Bike Shed, when you park up to meet your homies to discuss cold brew coffee and vegan selvedge denim.

I like the detail of the cooling fins on the front frame tubes to cool the oil in the frame. I don't like the rest but it looks like a lot of work has been done rather than just having thrown a cut sub frame, a brown seat and some TKC80s at it.

You missed out beard oils. :lol:

Impressed you know about selvedge...you got a stash of redline? :D

The bike? Shiny. (But not in the sense they say it in Firefly). There's some impressive work in it, but ultimately, nah.

Is this the second time we've seen this pile of wank, or was there another bike with a Meccano swing arm?

If I wanted a bike just to ride 5 miles to the Ace* Cafe on fine sunny days this would hit the spot. I might be concerned about the brown seat, but hey ho. For real world riding it is indeed a very well engineered tarts handbag, and would not suit me at all.

* Other cafes are available.

Nope, and there's not even a single component on that bike that I'd use on any of my bikes.

Beringer make highly unreliable amps,I hope their brakes are better. :shock: :silent:

The bike itself is a bit too bling for me,but it isn't beyond fixing to taste.
