So the graphics on that bike are DEFINITELY in poor taste, but it gets funnier when you see that the seller is also trying to unload this:
Looks like ebay took this down before I could see what was going on with that bike
Had the SS logo for Single Speed
oof. that is quite the faux pas.
And it’s not even a single speed frame!
ok this makes more sense— I think this is a KISS fan not a nazi
(or perhaps not paying enough attention to notice the differences or to use an actual Totenkopf for the head badge)
maybe kiss is nazis.
AKAN.
Can’t rule it out though. Like with the 1%er bikers who loved the SS logo for the shock value and weren’t exactly goose-stepping Nazis but also definitely did not enjoy the company of people of color
I mean what I realized thanks to this convo is that KISS were more edgy than I thought!
Canti nfe for you north Americans
Bridgestone MB-4, $200 near me
Ideale 90 with aluminum alloy rails and seatpost. $55
I seem to recall these being sought-after, back in the heyday of the fop chariot?
edit: this is close enough to me that I could probably pursue it if worthwhile.
You can buy new ones for $300 with standard rails. I think @JUGE_FREDD got one.
I’ve been curious but I don’t really want an old one
could you try for it?
that’s a really good price and condition, people always want crazy money for mediocre examples like French Ideale #90 Bicycle Saddle | eBay or IDEALE 90 LEATHER BICYCLE ROAD SADDLE VINTAGE ALLOY flat rails USED w/27.2post | eBay
friction cable stop
cool
Were there any canti NFE havers on track? Maybe the prototypes?
