Clothes will make you a Fred.

Considering there are no brakes on the rig, you won't be fast or a Fred for long.

Oh dear!

If you have to ask you're already a fred. It's all about attitude.

It's a nice looking bike, but making it fast is up to you.

That bike will make you sexy by association. just being on it will make you attractive, even if you have stickers on your forehead and dreads :p

Danger, fellow poster. Do not poke the dragon if you have no shield.

Few have survived the wrath of the Modzilla.

Is it just me or are bike companies just giving up and taking the off the shelf frames built in Taiwan and rebranding them.

That Dolan is the same damned bike as the Fuji track Comp and the Motobecane Team track
