Wow these stay brutal shirts are actually selling. A guy is receiving money in trade for them, which he can then trade for goods and services. What a world!

OMGmarclol the pic is unflattering all around, but your girlfriend and friend look like perfectly nice looking people irl.

I agree, the mercier is badass until you see the skewers. Then it's like, womp womp. Also, is the fork bent?

Sweet, I'll be putting the Pug up for auction. I think with the bar ends and color coordinated seat I should expect upwards of $500. Plus shipping.

...what the hell?

where did you find that? aside from the faux pas involved with its build up, what can you tell us about that frame? i've never seen anything designed along these lines with the saddle positioned sooo far back behind the BB.

Designed for a specific rider for a specific event, sort of like that pink bridgestone with the 80 degree seattube.
