You are trying to understand artwork. Custom show bike: "Where form strangles function" Treat it like the non-functional object that it is and be happy..! |

agree on the chain stays issue it gets very thin there and has some really unusual angles where the two structures meet. gas in the tank oil in the frame. look closely |

I agree with all the haters. It's nice to look at, but not very useful. No rear suspension, no thanks! |

Air filter is that yellow square... it runs but is not a rider. Like its been said.. no guages, lights, exhaust cooks foot, no plate brackets etc. Very pretty and well made kit though. Excellent design and craftsmanship. Lots of time went into it. I'm building a cafe and while it will be ridable it won't be for anything but in city. Does that make it useless? To some yes. Not all bikes need to perform. Some are just for looking purtty. |

So what if its not ridable? people pay thousands of dollars for paintings and other "art". Instead of paintings I would buy bikes like that, that is art to me. |

I am so confused. I like some of the aesthetic details but I am repulsed by a machine that cannot be put to use. I like color and "extruded" profile, but the lower part of the frame looks like it would crack if you hit a bump (can you believe it I am agreeing with Blake?!?) I like the minimal concessions to comfort and safety, but at the same time recognize that sitting on it would be torturous and riding it nearly impossible. What a lot of work for something that doesn't do what it looks like it should do (sort of like the current state or our beloved System of Politics and Government ) |
