Pop serious wheelies on it tho.

it's pretty hot in a homely sort of way.

what the *****?
I have visions of him sliding back and burning his ass on his rear wheel

it's the impotencemobile.

Someone needs to 'shop a Viking onto that thing.

Trying to turn must be a lot of fun

there's been some crazy stuff on FGG lately. did you see the video? looks like synchronized swimming but with bikes.

you think i'm kidding.

the bars look like two boar penises.

this thing seriously needs some spinners or gold radials and velvet.

Woah, Turd's been watching too much National Geographic!

that was a seat? I thought it was some ancient norse sex toy.

well, it became the sweet norse sex toy once the bike traveled back in time.

My friend has a similar bike to that, except that the front is a rear triangle. The bars are alot lower, so you put your legs over the bars and pedal the FRONT wheel. Ghetto-recumbent. Its a coasterbrake too. Lots of dangerous fun!

was it one of those akward deals that you have to crawl in and out of and hope that a friend would hold it up while you did? those are the worst.

Definitely a Cubist construction.

that guy is a freakin' looney. I love his stuff, but he's a freakin' looney.

it would do better with a banana seat.

Not at all. Completely open on the top end. I think it was a short cruiser frame, decked out with 26" wheels. Fun, yet hard to ride contraption. Easy to get off though due to the short C.O.G.
