Todd · April 3, 2018, 9:09pm

Spooky:
Vaaaaaaaaaalllllllllve stems
Rear light will keep you safe from cars approaching you from the center of the earth
Saddlebag has been covered, but yeah, just get an xtracycle if you need that much space.

But whatever, from what I can glean from that incredibly poorly lit photo with which you chose to introduce yourself, you got the contact points about right and you ride enough to care about having decent bottle cages. That’s not a lot of spokes (and radial front is :I), but it’s a small bike, so you probably aren’t spending all your spare time truing the wheels.

This (dodge&)burn is so much better than a JOD, CF or turtle.

kmcdon1 · April 24, 2018, 5:28pm

igor · April 24, 2018, 5:31pm

kmcdon1 · April 24, 2018, 5:33pm

Jesus fucking christ this is a retro-grouch catalog photo. “Let’s make a bike that is actually terrible to use out of some parts that are pretty great individually and some that aren’t because looks are the most important feature of the bike.”
