There is no way that is actually a bike. You are now just messing with our heads.

at least it's not a fixie.

This is a merging of all that BSNYC rails against on the streets of Gotham - suspension, tri-guy, sketchy wheels...

It sold for over $500, somebody got a sweet deal.. Take it apart make a mt. bike and a road bike.

Common, give this bike some credit, its all or none. This ride has everything a cyclist could ever want. It is like the rennaisance man of bikes.

Is it too late to change my mind about yesterday's bike? Please?

my pappy used to say "if you're gonna be stoopid, you better be tough"

I say to whoever rides this thing "he better be faster than the rest, cause he'd sure look stupid crossing the line outside of the top 10!"

most of the time, i'm much too dense to see what the big deal is with these bikes right away, but when i opened this page, i got the joke.

You know the winner bought it just for that front Spinergy.

You're gonna go find some tri spoke 650s for an MTB frame? You've got to be joking me.

We used to call those wheels the "flexy flyers". In defense of "modern" Spinergy, the wheels are much better now.

Still... I think, no... wait... I'm sure... I barfed a little.

I remember the first wheels; I was working in a shop and borrowed the demo set to do a time trial. Every time I got out of the saddle, the wheel rubbed the chainstay due to the sinister amount of flex in the wheel. Remember the little stiffener/ support you could glue between the "spokes" to keep the wheels from killing you... yeah, that worked. Those things became missiles of death in many crits, here in SoCal.

I second that "at least its not a fixie" comment. I'd much rather ride that then ever ride a fixed gear bike. Just writing fixed gear makes me angry.

all you have to do now is put up a cyclocrossish conversion and you got a real machine...that will win the world cup DH slalom for sure...

Wha... wha?

mr. f. g. superman said...

I would totally ride that for my first Tri. Do you think they'd let me shave my number into my back?

Anonymous said...

No what that thing really needs to top it all off is a touring setup with panieers front and rear. Then it could be everything to everyone all in one sweet yellow ride!

I too am commenting on this bicycle in a manner that is not witty or even sarcastic, but still shows my anonymous disdain for it.

Not exactly an aero position.

If I see that on the street I will fling my own poo at it.

The joy of living and riding in NYC is that you see bikes like that almost every day. In fact, on my way home this evening, I saw a blue mountain bike with aerobars, with the "rocket launcher" bottle cages in the back and a kickstand no less, ridden by a dude in running shorts, with earbuds in his ears. In the aerobars, of course.

Douchebag.

I'd like to see the freak that can actually ride that thing?!?!

And, if it was my bike I'd turn it into a fixed gear, just for anonymous!

Do you go around blowing up velodromes because you're so averse to fixed gear bicycles? Under the right legs, they're beautiful bikes. Under some schmuck who doesn't know anything about cycling, it's quite another.

Yeah, Velodromes are the most evil of places. There's people riding track bikes.....on a track no less!!! Maybe you ought to read some more BSNYC and see what we're talking about.
