That Jack Danier is so sweet… I remember seeing this pic a long time ago and being in awe of its toe bags.

Edit: Jack Taylor, eh…

[Larry_Winget]

These are a little over the top, but Hetchins gets a pass.

Jackass rear tire pressure on the second one… love the color combo on the first one, though.

[Larry_Winget]

More info on the Jack Taylor. I am totally stalking this bike on the internets.

I think it’s kinda neat for what it is. I love classy, retro, rando bikes. But if one is seriously going to ride 1200km in 90 hours, then who wants extra weight. So, in the vein of pure functionality carbon would be appropriate on a modern-ish audax bike.

I think I prefer somewhat beat up, gaff taped rando bikes with a dog’s breakfast mix of old and new components (llike Emily O’Brien’s) to the retro-classy bikes. I like the beauty of a very functional object that gets used hard.

Yes.

This we can agree on. Those wheels are jackass on that bike.

(one of my all-time favorites.)

[Whippin_Skidz]

I’m gonna build a rando-style bike next, maybe fixed. I’ve wanted to for some time now, but I think I may have a frame lined up that will work for it.
