Great looking bike. Funny, your chain makes the whole transmission look vintage. Funky bike. Not in a cheap way, but rather I hated it at first glance and then when I really looked at it I fell in love. Does that make me a teenage girl?
That bike is the type of bike i was trying to create using an old Saba / Columbus frame, but looking at this bike i think i might have failed? if you could look at my photo (in archive SABA REBUILD) and advise me about how to get the clean lines of your bike, much appreciated. Simon.
Agree on the matching leather on the bars and straps.. Try plemonsco straps. They’re insanely expensive but I believe they are the best on the market and they will match perfect. Great bike man.
hes already got keshimax how much more expensive do we want to go!!lol. those plemonsco straps dont seem to have the laminate layer??? which i think is a deal breaker.but you are right they would match,but i like the keshies better.have a good’n
Fairly ugly. Nasty chain. dull looks. Nothing speacial to this bike. People see its a kinfolk and go all crazy. Shame rly. Rather it be judged by what it looks like.
You know sloman. Difference is taste is very hard to discuss. Im putting out my ideas about this, and maybe pokeing the fire abit. But when i look at this, and should i compare it to any of the other kinfolk here (in top 10), this one just doesnt cut it. Im amazed that you arent spinning up about that chain. It ruins alot for me on this bike.
Supose its a nice frame, i just dont like the colors, so thats a huge minus in my book. I find the brooks saddle doesnt rly match anything else on the bike, except maybe the wheels.
I like the chainring on this, and i like the peddles and straps there as well. But thats about it. In my book this is a 5, wich i know is a lot on this site for some people. But in my eyes its a medium bike.
And to be fair, im more into the modern looks. But once again, thats just individual taste.
@Hindsberg – looks like the oldest bike in Archive is from Nov 2010. Apparently they are only keeping one year there. Obviously, the posting is still there, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to link to it directly.
