Nü TAF ONLY.

Smart money choice is buy a new Timberjack (or something similar) for that than to dump the same amount of money, or more, refurbishing an old MTB.

But smart money and bikes? :man_shrugging:

This Rock Lobster is pretty TAF, rear dropout is a bit of a let down though…

In the true spirit of new taf I’d like to share this dumpster bike I just saw

I’m really not sure how it steers. I’m almost not sure what that lever by the seat is. But it’s possible it shifts, steers, AND seats with a stick!

Shit, I’m not sure IF it steers.

I’m guessing the big shopping cart handle steers, the lever is the brake, and its only got one speed?

The whole front pivots, centered on the front axle. Lever is rear (only) brake, with parking brake ratchet. That fork from the box flips down over the frame so that the front doesn’t pivot from load weight while parked.

I hear these bikes are great for groading with lots of elevation.

Mostly I used that portmanteau because then you can call someone who loves to ride gravel roads a groady, which, accurate.

That guy is a wizard with an airbrush, as showcased by Brynn’s snake bike.

I couldn’t ride that; it would spoil the paint.

The dream is alive.

And all photographed in “black cow on a moonless night”-o-vision because they are embarrassed by how awful the design is?

Fucking love that track. When that album came out I must have spent close to $50 on AA batteries for my discman before I took it out to listen to something else.

Was also bummed when I went to my first rave and nobody had big flashlights.
