The purple bike is fine. On a tangential note though, I was looking at bikes locked up the other day and actually pronounced in my head, Ergos equals ban.

That guy lives in Chicago. I’ve seen his bike in person at the lbs and seen him riding it.
Birkenstock and wool socks.
Ponytail.
Certified kook.

One of the best things about Tarck is that, whenever we find a kook’s bike somewhere on the internet, there’s always someone here, like Rusty, who has seen it in person. I also want to point out that, further down, he is bragging about riding a single tire for 8,000 miles over a 10-year span. So he’s not even the kind of kook who logs incredible miles in all conditions. Just a fair weather rider with a heavyass bike who really hates flats.
Anyone wanna take a guess at home much that thing weighs?

I thought it was a troll talking about his Schwalbe Marathons on Spinergys, then I saw the bike…

I should add that as townie has surmised, I’ve only ever seen this kook riding that thing in the nicest conditions imaginable. Always with four stuffed panniers, always within the same three or four mile radius.

If he were one of those guys, and we all know those guys, I’d actually be kinda psyched. Knowing that he’s a fair-weather chump makes me hate him.

If it was (luckily it’s not, has about 26 gear combinations too many) you would be a far worse new guy than you actually are.
