This guy makes me want to crawl into a hole and die. Seriously, who does he think he is. I can go out to any Whole Foods and see a god damn BMW. And worst of all, that bastard takes up two spots. I do not give a **** about your small cock compensating car. And the exposure sucks too. This guy sucks.

Anywho on a lighter note, did anyone see this ?:

Brings smile to my face. Greatest thing ever. I first thought, "brakeless?! No way" but realized to hole that he will probably stick a brake on when his son is big enough to ride.

So awesome.

Few words truly encapsulate the essence of a person as perfecly as "******" does.

OMG it has a top tube protector? Is jr going to ride it in the halway of his school and lock it to his desk? Do they make a chrome JR? That is one of the coolest bikes I've ever seen. That kid is going to get so much play.

Oh, and assuming that the cog on that thing is 16T or so, the kid is pushing 28.6 gear inches.

>>I first thought, "brakeless?! No way" but realized to hole that he will probably stick a brake on when his son is big enough to ride.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. But then I remembered my first "bike" which had two small wheels in the back and the huge wheel in the front with the cranks coming out of the axle uni-style. That was fixed, and had no brakes either. Then I remembered how hardcore I was back then, and how I'd probably kick my ass if I could have seen what I've become...

i have to add, second after the kid's fix is either the cannondale (cannondale and spinergy...yummmm....) or the jonny cycles bike (the craftsmanship....yummmm...)

I had one of those, too. Later, when I got too big for it I copied what the big kids were doing; taking the seat off and riding on the flat part of the rear axle. Poor kid's Big Wheel but all steel so definitely real.

really??!?! if only i could afford that...i would so want one of you guys to ship it to me. assuming, of course, that it's my size (please tell me it wasn't 58cm, rendering the whole discussion pointless and alleviating the aggravation of knowing that bike is exactly what i've wanted to build for a bit now).

Yea. the postings gone now so I'm assuming it sold. It was a 52. Which is odd, because John is taller than I am.

well, at least it wasn't a 58. makes me happy. or, well...less let down.
