(old) specs Here: https://www.konabikes.co.uk/2k6bikes/paddy_wagon_2k6.php
Apparently it's been in the UK for at least a year. Formula hubs: good call. Bashring: Why?
Still waiting for one of these name-brand SS/fix bikes to come stock with bullhorns... only a matter of time.

Perhaps this is what they are referring to when they say Paddy Wagon is racist.

Maybe it's because Irish people in America don't really feel the efects of rascism? They're white, for chrissake.

funny, i always thought it was a paddy wagon cause a lot of cops were traditionally irish. live an learn.
+1 on both the point that irish did suffer a lot of discrimination many years ago and that we have absolutely jack **** to complain about today.
