this is a place where people put other peoples bikes, its a nomination thing, a lot of randomers who like to post their bikes all over the internet have posted here, they are all wrong so it is not just you

There's a shop in Oakland that sells them, and takes custom orders, so - should a miracle occur and I am one day able to afford a Pegoretti - I can order one from a human being. Which is good, because you're absolutely right, their website is shit.

That is a ghost bike...I can see the chalk outline of the chainwheel!! Must've gotten itself shot by the Guns of Brixton.

Hi. Here's my 1968 Major Nichols track bike, that's probably relieved to be out of the basement and into the sunshine after a long winter.
I've just bought a 58t TA front chainring off Roberto for 'her' so I'm looking forward to hitting the road again once I've installed it.

Ooops. Just realised my error. Sorry about that, still finding my way around. I reckon she still qualifies as porn though.

That's street art! It's mental fun.
I'm really glad there are people with guts, deep pocket & sense of humor building bikes like that.
I thought I was being a bit crazy when I ordered a polished bmx brake lever this morning...

No, this is street art:



I'm sorry, I should stop being so confrontational, but that canary bike is bloody awful. My retinas are melting just thinking about it.

I grew up there, too - my stepfather's a season ticket holder at Carrow Road. I stand by my comparison.

I lived in Highbury for about 18 months, which was pretty handy (this was the last season before they moved up the road).

Good times in the Gunners Pub on Blackstock Road.

I don't understand what's going on with the wheel sizes... what's going on?

Other than that I agree with miro_o, It brightens up my day to see strange creations like that
