    Track bikes in Tokyo (picture heavy)

    Met up with Deathhare tonight and took a trip out to a fabled Tokyo bike shop. Turns out they only had one bike in our size, and neither of us were too keen on the gaudy paintjob. Still, it was a good time.

    Those bikes are crazy, in a good way. That red/yellow crank fade is something else.

    That is such an awesome bicycle orgy going on there.

    I'm digging that whole Rasta bike. All it needs is the King rasta headset (I don't know that they did a threaded one, but still).

    That Rasta bike is amazingly ridonkulous. It makes Shant's Fisher Price Bridgestone look downright understated.




    p.s. whoever painted the Reminton has GOT to be colorblind
