Only if he's the motherless son of a wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan and is honorably seeking my assistance and use of my bank account to transfer a vast inheritance, for which he will pay me a 15% fee, after I send him $2500 to release the funds from a holding account at Allied Bank PLC...

Not as ugly as that green monstrosity but this is my franken commuter. She looks butt ugly but rides sweet and no one is ever likely to want to steal it.

Just in case anybody is curious - the brand name on this bike is 潔俺特 Jie'ante - a phonetic transcription of "Giant". The model name is 鉄二 Tie'er - "Iron Two" or perhaps a phonetic transcription of "touring". This photograph was almost certainly taken in Taiwan, and the bike was likely made or at least designed in Taiwan too, judging from the style of characters on the bike.

One should be careful with such earnest displays of minutia, lest one risk being branded a pedant.
