yeah ... where are all the hot pennyfarthings?

I was told one of my bikes was too "matchy matchy"

If your bike is actually liked in this thread than most likely it's a turd. It's bizzaro world in here.

Maelochs

It is a world with very specific rules and a very narrow aesthetic, which like all aesthetics, is also completely subjective.

It is like a juried art competition---the jurors "decide" what is and is not art. Michelangelo might not make the cut and Mark Rothko might be called a genius.

I posted a pic of my bike once ... people were actually quite charitable while telling me how horrible it was. usually they are harsher.

Either way ... I don't post pics here any more.

Smart looking, and very pleasing, but it's not what I'd call hot. (I really dislike the title of this thread....)

Highly appreciate the level top tube.

Nice color, too.

I think the Pinarello's hot. Not a big fan of paint schemes including hi-vis (I just feel they don't age well), but I love the combo there. I get the impression that a lot of companies go with boring black/red/white combinations on their top models, while reserving more daring and unusual colourways for the mid-to-low end bikes.

not that that pinarello is bad, just not fond of this styling direction of this f8/f10/gan family. setup and position is good. the graphics is just a bit too much.... 3rd and 4th color esp in highlighter-green is unecessary. 7.5/10

ZERO. Not hot!

See, fit in here now!

Well, they weren't wrong. I'd say there are other issues than that, but I won't go into it.

jsigone

LOL, close but no cigar. Has all the boxes ticked off, but doesn't execute.

I like that pinarello a lot, I think the aluminum brake tracks and garmin mount are detracting from the HOTNESS level. Colorway is sweet.

The one in my post is his. He deleted the original post, but I used the power of the internet to resurrect the photo.

No two ways. A bad @ss'ed ride. Pro set up. You better be a lean, mean fighting machine to ride that whip for long.
Congrats. Awesome!

jsigone

thanks

This is a century/weekend warrior machine. I took it out on 70miles last saturday's club ride, it rode fast and got allot of comments from my team mates. This Sunday I plan to do my Century a month challenge on this bike. Fit is similar to my Felt F4 so I don't see too much issue in 5+ hour rides. Biggest thing is ergo change from SRAM to Shimano hoods and angles.

I still need to see if I can fit 28c tires into the frame.

Incorrect, but thanks for playing.

What is that? Whatever it is, it simultaneously has and lacks vision. See what I did there?

i love it

Its been almost 3 years since I've ridden; looking forward to Sunday's ride and hoping the Storck was worth building up.

evan326

What bars are those? Maybe its just the angle, but the curve looks odd.

The handlebar is a 3T Tornova; ergo tops from the Ergonova with traditional drops from the Rotundo.
