Bollywood does C&V
 

A user on another site I frequent shared this video, which has the requisite C&V content. From what I can gather, it's from a 1992 Indian/Hindi film called "Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar." This is the climactic race scene, which is apparently meant to be completely serious.

Don't blink or you'll miss the high-tension closeup at 3:56 (though a few more follow).

Nothing like a Raleigh Sprite with a downtube shifter being pushed the wrong way to operate a Falcon rear derailer in a velodrome.

Mind you, American Flyers is not much better in the corn department, though this movie has the added Easter egg of a Saddam Hussein look-a-like in the bleachers. :lol:

5:13 - is it just me, or do I see a Campagnolo Euclid front brake?

Nice.

Wow, I've been doing it wrong all this time! Thank you Bollywood! Educational.

wow, we don't get many clay tracks here in the states (what else could it be
with the dust getting kicked up?).

was that Paris-Rubaiyat stadium?
(sorry couldn't resist).

Guys red bike looks like it has stem shifters AND a downtube shifter for close ups (which apparently works being pulled backwards as mentioned a few times already!)

I need to figure out how to rig my bikes like that, so I can go fast too.

Haha. My sides are still aching. That shift of gears is awesome. Thank you for posting this. Must go and have a drink now and try to stop laughing.
