    I know most car branded bikes tend to be awful but no way can this be an official BMW released model

    Knee socks? It's the Giro, not a triathlon lads.

    I've a picture of Nico with similar length socks. Must be some sort of pro exemption thing?

    A triathlete wouldn't be caught dead wearing those!!

    Paisley pattern :eek: :eek:

    I love the socks themselves, but they're too long. If they were shorter they'd be deadly!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭cjt156


    They're not knee-socks; they're calf-length. And it's not Paisley; it's Argyle.

    By process of elimination he's not a triathalyser; he's a golfist!

    The only way those socks are acceptable are if you are in need of storage for a small dagger.

    Ah here, I have enough trouble figuring out reverse threaded non-drive side pedals without this kind of jiggery-malarkey!

    And if the thing was upside down for repairs.... gawd help us all!

  • Registered Users Posts: 31,058 ✭✭✭✭Lumen


    I feel sick and dizzy just thinking about riding a bike with a left-mounted chainset.

    You can do it on single speed, but you also cycle backwards :)

    I heard about the left hand drive side for the past few months now and from what I understand it's to do with how the air flows around a velodrome. It's apparently more aero to have the drive on the left as you don't get "bounce back air" from the track on that side. Also is centers weight better on banked corners. Apparently!

    I think that Bianchi is a thing of beauty.

    Then again, I currently ride a pink bike.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,718 ✭✭✭AstraMonti


    Either pink or celeste, not both for the love of Pantani.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,114 ✭✭✭stecleary


    There's something about it, I don't like it but I want to keep looking at it, I don't hate it but i want to burn it


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Boscoirl


    The pink bar tape just pushes it over the edge for me
