ground breaking!

Wow that IS a new concept.

My bike ride great to
Me is an experience rider no need braek.

One problem, cruiser no got Arrospok.

that can be easily solved.

I'm so shocked by the new concept, I have only 2 questions:
So it's a Cruiser, right?
And it's fixed?
i still don't get it.

Very Interesting

One piece cranks
Wide wheels

I think I will make one this week and try it out

Rubs hands together .............. a whole new market
Bring me that Schwinn from the workshop

no hacked,
No-one can build anything like it, you have to buy it.
surely you understood that?

i want one of these:
stepper

LOL .................. I will have one up on eBay prob day after tomorrow hee hee
Now what do you reckon I could get for it ??

with arrospok? at least 1000.
without, *sucks air through teeth* 500 minimum

Flat pedals, no brakes - new concept in litigation.

Stepper .................oh WOW

Right I am on it already
Adam (Son) bring me a ...........BMX scooter from the lock up and your mums stepper out of the bedroom, Araldite and some string

I am so tempted ....................... would that be Dorras or good ol sterling?
(Only thing holding me back is I don't think I have any new tyres in stock)

i don't know, the market's just too crazy tbh.

Joking aside .............if I can pick up some new tyres on my stock delivery ... I will build one for fun and then see if it is worth flogging on eBay or putting it out to resell in London. You never know .....

That is fucking unbelievable, you have got a cruiser bike and taken the gears off !!

Well done ! This is a whole new world, a whole new concept, a breakthrough, just fucking incredible.

What's a cruiser?

its a type of French cheese...you wouldn't like it...oh no! of course you would..

good thing i have this SA 3 speed fixed hub laying around... i use it to open my can of vegan spam

So... delete as spam? Or leave because of amusing replies?

flip a coin, heads i win, tails you lose.

or heads it goes, and tails it stays, up to you

Oh man. they must be the greatest company ever. Nothing but quality.

Think I can get it to barspin?

TWO DISC BRAKE MOUNTS!

Wow. Check out their soft-tail. I wonder what this would be like to ride as a fixed gear?

http://www.3gbikes.com/bikes/s-rod.html

Okay. I'm done.

what the fuck happened to that bike?

its so wrong in so many ways.

Good fucking Jesus of Christ !

That thing (picture 4 posts up above) must weigh a fucking ton ! It makes the weight weenie in me cry.

wheels you just made the catholic school boy in me cry.

I don't think that suspension setup would work either, not enough rake on the forks, hitting a gutter would force the forks back towards the frame putting the spring under tension. Then again its so ugly and heavy i don't think anyone would ever be seen riding it.

That S bike hurt my eyes and my brain, I feel dumber just for looking at it.

i say leave it...although the company is getting exposure its also getting the piss taken out of it...
i think its equal :)

hi, a fixed cruiser is my current bike. I took a cheap schwinn beach cruiser frame and refitted everything else with fixie stuff - rims, hubs, cranks, fork, bars

see here



I'm glad because it looks different to everyone else's bike, and I really like the way that the white velocities mimic the look of beach cruiser white wall tyres.

a few things just don't work, like the chainline is about 2mm off, and because i had to use a bottom bracket adapter, the cranks have a tiny tiny bit of wobbling very very very slightly sometimes depending on the temperature!!! but that's the fun of having a bike like this, I am trying to iron out these things (slowly)

she handles fine though despite the weird geometry.

next step I am going to build spinning rims for it. I ride mostly around E2 E8 E9, so hope to maybe see some of you around.

i think i spoke to you when you road past the royal in on the park on wednesday

yeah me! I was on a date that night, and didn't know about the pub meet. So when suddenly I saw all the fixed kit chained to the pub, I didn't want to go in and expose my entirely geeky side by talking about bikes and completely ignoring her...! We saw you guys doing some time trials later, and she was like - "are they racing round timing themselves on bikes? that's what I used to do when I was 12!" and I was like, yeah, it's retro...

I will try come next wednesday if it's on.

I can't believe you guys would be so negative about those 3G bikes when we FGSSers live in a world of absolutely ridiculous bollocks like a man riding a bike with a pink color coded chain....

I've ridden a few 3g bikes and they roll nicely, the build quality is good for the price. I mean hell, the weight of the steel alone is worth half the price....¬~!

whoop!
pink colour coordinated chain! I am going to take the word hipster to a whole new level.

Also it is because he (a guy who works for 3g) came on the forum to advertise. Not good.

someone say pink chain?

linky?

i sent hubjub an email earlier. Otherwise their on the american ebay + at coloured (maybe spelled colored) tuffs
