To be fair, property crime is below average. It's violent crime that's high, especially sexual assault, in which I believe we lead the nation. I grew up here and love it up here and have no desire to live anywhere Outside again; but it's no utopia, that's for sure.

I really don't get the rear brake only steez. If it's fixed don't you already have a rear brake? If it's a freewheel, wouldn't you rather have a front brake (or both)?

it would be fun to roll it inside the shop and ask them for a suspension corrected ridged fork for your Le Velo

Looking at that P2, I actually said "What a jackass" outloud. That's the first time its ever happened.

There literally isn't a single thing about that bicycle that makes any kind of sense to me.

I had to look, but I found one. There is what appears to be a foam tube separating and protecting the bike from the odwalla crate. Of course, the reason why it needs to be there doesn't make any sense, but if that's how he/she is gonna roll...

I was going to say tire choice, but I can't see what kind of tires are on there. I would have to agree with pretty much everything else, from taping the top tube, 650 in the front? Bar choice, rear brake, pedal choice, lack of foot retention, fork choice, and branding.

Well, it looks as if he has somewhat proper chain tension... In other words, this person deserves to be u-locked in the face.

You mean you don't want a bike with four tires?

Scrodzilla 11-20-11 09:52 AM

That thing must weigh 50 lbs.

Well, I don't see what's genius about it. I would say it's leaning towards jackassery. I'm assuming that's coffee in those two thermosesesess, either that or beer, cuz who needs that much coffee?

I can't picture the kind of person who would work to make their bike look like this. Actually, I can, and many unflattering stereotypes fill my head.

On a positive note, at least if you're wearing arctic camo gear and you're riding in the wilderness of the USSR or someplace like that, you'll blend in pretty well.

GMJ 11-20-11 02:46 PM

I think that white bandana makes me hate that bike http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...a0d19fddb6.pngx's more.
