It's nice but you start to lose sense of the quality of the goods you purchase. Top of the line just means "standard" ....

I'm surprised he didn't put two new HED3's on it. I bet an assistant put it together.

Oh its just that I am salty that I can't afford a nicer bike.

o hes so HIP and STREET

Don't work in a high end bike shop. You will see people buy bikes for 10 grand and say "So can I pick it up tomorrow?"

tmccarthy41 10-28-08 01:47 PM

that kaws is ridiculous.. wow, forget the bike

The27jeenyus 10-28-08 02:03 PM

hes not trackstanding, you can see his hand on the ledge by his waist.

Culture Vulture!

Thetank 10-28-08 02:28 PM

that bike is just way tiny. Doesn't BMW only have that frame in 2 sizes though? either way its a lame attempt at trying to fit into hipster culture. Fail at skating, fail at fixed gear. . . he should stick to making music.

jdms mvp 10-28-08 02:33 PM

if i'm not mistaken, i think he owns a part of BMW...as in he helped them during financial crisis.... which is actually pretty noble if you ask me...

not that i'm a pharrell fan or a fan of that bike, but it's whatever

dylandom 10-28-08 02:33 PM

3 sizes. the third is about a 58/59

BENNOCKSIT 10-28-08 02:35 PM

That bike looks like a 48cm or somewhere around there, is Pharell really that short. And Kaws yes, is sick, did anyone see the storm trooper medicom collab, **** was sickkkk. The Supreme Kate Moss redo was amazing as well.

dylandom 10-28-08 02:58 PM

it looks like a 40 cm, which has a top tube of 55 i believe. The 40 and 46 both have the same top tube

GoryGlory 10-28-08 04:09 PM

And yes Pharell is the king of hypebeasts.

peabodypride 10-28-08 04:19 PM

that family guy painting creeps me out.

gestalt assault 10-28-08 04:24 PM

hypebeast nothing...Pharrell is a tool...a big fat (or short skinny rather) marketing tool...

sorsha6 10-28-08 05:13 PM

His hand's on the counter.

this1time 10-28-08 06:19 PM

ummm...out of curiousity, why dual machined rims and no brakes?

oh, and to those of you drooling over kaws, give me a break. yeh, he may be rich and famous, but the dude is running a close second to shepard fairey.

oh, skullz? on the cast of family guy? no crap? whodathunk...zzzzzzzzzzz!

gmodo 10-28-08 06:51 PM

you have no idea. this ducd pharrel went to the ferrari dealer when the enzo was released and was like 'i want that' and was told about the long time custy/must own multiple ferraris with no accident history rule for ownership. ducd bought 4 ferraris that day so they would let him order an enzo. i heard he also got that special FXX enzo track only model offered to enzo owners only too.
what you expect? charges $150k for a beat... he could throw out ten of those bikes a day and not even know.

this1time 10-28-08 07:59 PM

dude, that isn't even ******, that's just stupid.

it even sounds like one of those 'the ferrari salesman snubbed him so he bought the dealership just to fire him' stories.

those are painted. they only come machined in the OG carbon stuff


lot of hating going on here. so he got a bike, is it really his or just a photo of him on a bike? do you know for sure?

I'm sure he is quite capable of riding the bike and getting it sized proper.
most of you fools just started riding too and didn't know jack about bike before you spent sometime with them and some of you still don't know jack.

if you came up and made bank I'm sure you would buy toys that you didn't know much about and spend big buck on whatever you want.



hatin' are fools just jealous cause you can't.

I don't know why I'm defending Pharrell. I just think this thread and you haters are ridiculous

Oh I knew about all that. I am just saying how nice it must be to be able to do that stuff. It wouldn't be as bad if you didn't have to be either black and talented, or white and have wealthy parents to get to that status. The rest of us have to work 20 times as hard for a tiny fraction of what they have. It is kind of messed up, but I can't really take that away from them.
