today's FGG
a mcdonald's themed bike? and i'm not talking about shants' color scheme...this one has a mini burger on the stem and a paean to mcd's in the description.

sad
|
It would appear so
|
I like the Coppi...and normally I don't really like conversions (despite having one). I think it's the big tubes. I've considered converting my Klein w/ a white ENO hub. But then I wouldn't have a road bike anymore :(
|
Yeah wierd..."local and familiar"...where does this guy live?
|
|
I think it was a really good day for FGG...the cruiser was fun, the coppi and the shorter were hot.
|
i could see how it's near and dear to his heart as some childhood thing...how many of us didn't get excited when out parents took us to mcdonald's? of course, we're older now and most of us see some things a little differently...mcdonald's themed stuff is sort of lame, but it being a fixed gear bike, it just seems...like i'm in the twilight zone or something.
i'm gonna shower now. |
looks like the drops have never been touched.. typical.
is that a sprung Regal? |
I'd like to see a white castle theme bike. that mcdonalds bike made me hungry.
|
I think it's cute.
|
the cruiser bike is awesome I would love to have something like that for a bar bike
|
I'm not lovin' it.

Couldn't have said it better myself. |
One of my room mates keeps going on about how McDonald's burgers are made from meal-worms. It's kinda convincing when he mentions how they started advertizing burgers made with more beef.
Makes me glad my parents are hippies and I've never eaten animals :D |
that is one fugly f***ing bike.
|
|
Thanks :D
|
oh! that is yours, isn't it? it IS nice...from a distance, it looks nice. up close, even nicer....nice lugs.

Yea its mine, my primary (well... only) ride. It's a fun bike, it gets ridden every day. Rode it to San Jose on Sunday with a bunch of others from FGG. My ass is still sore from that seat but it was a blast. Deffinately need to drop a tooth or two in the back.
It sure is fun finishing a bike, I got it to its current state about 2 weeks ago. I was taking a rest from riding around late last night and the street lights glinted off the bars and fork and my heart skipped a beat... <3 yea. im a dork. its official. no wonder i'm single. *goes back to spooning bike* |
Lucky bastard...beautiful bike. :)
|
hell, i'd spoon that bike, too.
