ride anything this frame? any comments? some details?

i only know the price from the blb-website... thanks.

Whizz · 27th November 2008

Just because it's got a smaller front wheel that makes in a lo pro? I think not.

I saw it in the window of BLB many moons ago and it was enough to persuade me to purchase the much discussed H + Son.

Jonboy · 27th November 2008

Only remotly nice thing on the bike would be the rims. I love deep section!

snoops · 27th November 2008

like it, but would love it 700c.

edscoble · 27th November 2008

not a proper lo-pro of course, but most of us would like to have a lo-pro without the discomfort of one.

All 6ft 5 of me is going for this lo pro malarky. It's not caused too much discomfort yet but then I'm not running a 650c at the front.

Superprecise · 27th November 2008

ed that is an incredibly low bottom bracket. it's as if the one at the top of the thread has melted.

edscoble · 27th November 2008

Oh I hasn't notice, shame really cause it does look like a really nice bike.

gabes · 27th November 2008

fucking beautiful plastic pedals too.

You sound like you know fuck-all.

edscoble · 27th November 2008

Bernhard · 27th November 2008

Reminds me a little of this.

Bernhard · 27th November 2008

jimalex · 28th November 2008

Wow that bianchi is beautiful. where can i get one?

edscoble · 28th November 2008

i used to think the bianchi is beautiful the first time I saw it, now the more i look at it, it look lacklustre.

Why? Because I don't like the frame? Should've been more specific! I would prefer a proper lo pro.

Whereas with you there is no ambiguity.

MrSmyth · 29th November 2008

just watch the toe overlap.

It sound like your judging that build just on aesthetics, and how closely that suites your own taste. That's not very interesting.

:P

DFS?

i'd look it up if i gave a shit frankly.

_Zed_ · 30th November 2008

I saw one of these with drops around town the other day, looked great.

Platini · 30th November 2008

Did you hear that, Frankly?

Fruit · 12th March 2009

is the blb classic the same frame as the blb orlowski?

teddy · 12th March 2009

am i the only person on here that starting singing "sail away, sail away, sail away" when they read the thread title?

i am? okay. sorry.

paramounted · 12th March 2009

Whizz · 12th March 2009

I think a curvy seat tube would finish it off. Me thinks.

Whizz · 19th March 2009

I'd like to see the rider use the drops on that. Wank.

good luck pedaling that through the turns.

edscoble · 17th June 2009

Eh, the overlap isn't so bad, in fact you'll hardly notice it while turning, it's only when you're doing a really low speed turn is when you notice it (and trackstanding).

it's not a problem frankly, you rarely turn more than 45 degree when speeding around either way.

haj · 17th June 2009

That bike looks like the pedals are going to hit the ground in sharp turns...

Marcus · 17th June 2009

Who is this 'Frankly' guy who everyone seems to nod to?

is he in the secret club? is he the leader?

am i close?

can i be in the club?

Right. i meant you're going to smack the pavement with your pedal. what is that, 2 inches at the most? I bet, if given a tuft of turf to lean on, you could use the crank as a kickstand.

eyebrows · 17th June 2009

jersey has a point.
Also it looks terrible.
Like a bike for a small person that was put on a rack and tortured, probably as an initiation right into the NJS club

by the same token, Its a very difficult judgement to make.

edscoble · 17th June 2009

Oh I thought he meant the toe-overlap, not the BB being that low.
