mildly balls-to-the-wall nerd bike – RB-1 with hydraulic rim brake shakes, $1,000.

anyone on tarck wants it, I can arrange, if only to see such a wild contraption with my own eyes. 56cm

I don’t understand the shifters. Are these like bar ends in function but mounted to the top of the lever?

Watching a stream from the Mission Crit and apparently this is what the kids are into these days, hell yeah.

I still want a tri spoke. I’ve lived the critical mass I missed out on. Still want a stupid front wheel

Kind of terrible and I love it

I’m curious if it gets parted out

those shakes are Edco IGP with Magura HS77 calipers

I haven’t seen them with metal shift levers before, it’s normally more plasticky

big potential downside would be if they’re indexed for Campy 8 speed which is its own deadend dangler+freehub standard instead of Sachs/Shimano

I just sold some 9s era Campy rim brakes on eBay and the buyer messaged me after the sale asking fairly desperately if I had any 8s Campy components lol

If this were bigger, I’d be tempted. I’ve always loved these things.

Edit: lol that’s in nyc. How did my CL app get set to nyc. I blame @Crustradamus.

These upcycled cargo bikes at a little Bentonville shindig last night, thought the were pretty TAF. Seems like a good use of skills someone would pick up building tall bikes or somshit.
