I didnt mean this as a slight, just an observation. I wont be buying one of your bikes anyway. Im not so shallow that the typeface of the brand name would stop me if I was, however for the whole package it would look better for your brand IMO.

Im not having a pop. Its constructive criticism. I dont mean rip anyone off but Parlee have a nice simple, bold, type face. Something appealing and recognisable I think you would benefit from that kind of image is all.

Perhaps you could go for a Celtic type and call them just 'Walker' its simpler, and looks better.

Was the font on that bike a few posts up suggested by a pro?

Its all subjective of course, everything is. I just thought Id tell you what I thought.

As I say not having a go.

I like this, I think it would look better than the graphic you currently use but as I say its subjective, you probably dont like it but thats the point I suppose!

Clearly this isn't the right place. But! Your's is too weighted to the left. That "w" looks lonely all out there on its own.

You've just invented the new sport of fixie-kerning!

Crow perched on fence: Porn, more Porn!

See, the problem is that the graphics were designed around my tartan and headbadge. http://donwalkercycles.com/Welcome.html The font is "Seven Swordsman" and is a celtic font.

It works if you see the headbadge, at least in my ever so humble opinion.

I'm impressed the only famous person I ever met was Dierks Bentley

Oh, the pics of Robin Williams and I were better, imho. I have a feeling L.A. might not be too happy with who has agreed to speak at NAHBS 09... Could get ugly if they are both there.

God, tall frames are sexy. :)

tall frames are ugly. they're like women with big feet.

I want in on the fixie-kerning scene and I want in early.

your tartan? didn't you confessed to us a while ago that you has no idea what your family colour is?

you still can keep your badge while changing the font, as an example of design change; the London Underground despite keeping it's original design, minimalising it for contemporary time;

original first roundel;


current roundel;

Potential Porn?

I wonder if Richard Sachs or Ben Serotta have to justify their work to anonymous groups on the internet who may never buy their frames.

There's always an argument here with DW.

Is he just defensive or being given a hard time?

Both!
But props to Don for keep coming back and sticking to his guns, er sorry I mean claymores :)

awaits neon flashing version.......

hence the use of a red chainring. ROFL!

back to hand. very nice but subtle build.

ahhhhh, is that because your scottish???????

damn right!

except for the stem, which is about as subtle as a steam train...

but we all know gingers are blind ;)

Oh perrrrrlease! He's started again...........tartan, celtic, blah, blah

Bloody hell. If I built frames for a living I'd put my full name on it too. I'd probably add Mr to the start of it too.

Removing the 'Don' from 'Don Walker' might look odd on a bicycle. The point being a walker is someone who walks and I'm guessing you probably won't be walking around with your bike.

I'm sure this has occurred to Mr Walker already though.

oops, spoke too soon:


Nice bikes btw Don.

:)

didn't he says he has no idea what his family tartan colour is?

I always love the look of a low-pro without the punishment of one, thought the stem is a bit wank as mentioned.

You crack me up, Ed... :D

Kudos, that looks alot better.

since someone mentioned Richard Sachs, I decided to have a gander, and behold;

Richard Sachs makes some beautiful stuff... Me likey...

One could be yours Joe, if you can endure the estimated 5 year wait.
