If I was Kanye, I'd get way gnarlier bikes. Titanium frames left right and center!

tx_what_it_do 04-21-08 08:14 PM

isn't this the dude who always wore one of those girls leather backpacks?

i'm no fan of hip hop, but a couple of song i've heard that are his i liked. i hope he plans on tying his goddamn shoes when he rides though.

back on topic-ish: who cares if some famous dude bought a tarck bike? it's happened before, it'll happen again. i'm just glad that riding is cool enough for some people to embrace it like this.

His partner Pharell did the same thing with skateboarding a while back. Not sure if I'm the only one who remembers.

No hate, but I'm sure it's just another one of his accessories. Just my opinion.

el twe 04-21-08 08:59 PM

Doesn't Pharell own part of BMW?

okay 04-21-08 09:01 PM

why the **** does it matter if he ties his shoes. chillax you geezers.

Ohmyguinness 04-21-08 09:02 PM

of course it's an accessory. and yeah, i remember when skating got "hot" again a few years ago after the whole neptunes thing. things come and go in waves, though. today it's tarck bikes (which gets kids riding, and that's good!), tomorrow it's something new. oh well, such is pop culture.

I'm pretty sure skateboarding was wildly popular before Pharell.

i think tony hawk and mountain dew had more to do with it re-exploding than pharell.

oh, and jackass.

You ever had your shoes come untied while riding? It generally leads to bad things. Not the least of which will be getting chain nastyness all over his $200 limited edition nikes.

im going to prescribe you a new drug that just came out, Chillax, it comes in 20mg tablets and i want you to take one every morning and whenever you feel the effects wearing off. come back to see me in a week and we'll talk about how thats working for you.

SHOwned 04-21-08 09:29 PM

hearing the word "chillax" makes it very difficult for me to actually simultaneously chill and relax at the same time. it makes me hate. i'd rather just chill, or relax. not both though. lol

hudsong 04-21-08 09:35 PM

I was going to make an angry post about how biking is not about fashion, then I realized no one gives a **** about what I think and they'll keep doing it anyway, so now I'm wondering why I'm still writi

letsthrowfries 04-21-08 09:40 PM

If I were Kanye I'd have a Vanilla/Don Walker/Nagasawa tall bike built and use two white mavic iO's on that b**** with risers and no pedal retention.

homEsick 04-21-08 09:47 PM

haha. this thread makes me happy.

i was determining how black my friends were today by asking them if they'd ride a glow in the dark bike endorsed by kanye. =/

either way, i do believe i am going to embark on an endeavor to make some of those bar ends and sell them

Biking is about having fun. If you have fun biking around and looking good (or at least you think you look good) more props to you.
