i was just out walking and saw a fixed gear bike with bullhorns pointing straight up!

didn't have a camera but i might go snap a pic later if it's still there

Nice! I see so many MTBs with barends oriented that way it only makes sense to aim your bullhorns skyward too!

i've walked past this bike tons of times parked in front of this taqueria.. i'm pretty sure the person who owns it works there. i never noticed the handlebars before though

^^ Definitely a bit Frankenstein, but the build looks pretty sensible to me. Sensible and FUN.
