    They seem to have the decimal point in the wrong place or maybe it's supposed to be in sterling

    Ok, so TT bikes are low-hanging fruit but even so

    Someone who overestimated their lower back flexibility....

    Is it just how it ships brand new, and you're expected to cut it down to whatever suits your bike fit?


  • Registered Users Posts: 942 ✭✭✭outfox


    Well, whatever it is, it's pretty damn ugly.

    So much wrong with that. Saddle, shifters, gear ratios, cabling, rim depth, handlebar angle
    The wheels look like 26" wheels and the tyres are more like commuting tyres. Had a look around and apparently on sale for $298 from singapore

    On the same site i found this. A 20kg folding bike

    As a project would someone buy this and "normalize" it?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 49,141 CMod ✭✭✭✭magicbastarder


    a lot of the components look quite cheap. doesn't seem to have QR on the rear wheel, and the seatstays look a little odd.

    It has a certificate tho, so it must be good.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 49,141 CMod ✭✭✭✭magicbastarder


    that paint scheme is a bit early 90s acid house.

    I like that lunchbox compartment at the bottom, you'd get a couple sandwiches and a capri-sun in the there.
