    We don’t have a “Fugly images” thread yet.

    It's a gilded lily. That's almost worse.

    Looks like is goes like a rocket thou. (maybe it's the small size)

    Drop the bottle cages, wheel decal and perhaps the bar tape too and that's a beauty....

    I had a nutella and bacon crepe once. Nearly died but it tasted amazing.

    I love that felt. It's making no excuses for its fabulousness.
    If anything it needs more.
    Red bottle cage maybe?

    Compared to the Cannondale it's positively understated.

    i know usually in this thread, the photos posted of bikes which *should* look good, but don't, so this is a slight deviation from that norm:

    Looking at that hurts my brain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,268 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    Meh, full size folding bike for £160? Id take that over a Brompton style one for a commute. Red looks slightly better:

    It's not a commuting bike, it's a mountain bike. For shredding trails on and downhilling, one has to presume.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,268 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    Well it would make a better commuter than the regular style of folding bike.

    weird. if you look at it from a distance, it's OK. then you look closer...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,581 ✭✭✭cletus


    Can I ask a question that's only vaguely related to the picture above? Can you only have tan sidewalls on a black bike (I understand that you can do what you want, but from an aesthetic point of view, is that combination the most acceptable)

    Looks good on some silver/chrome finishes too imo.

    It's like the seat post is recoiling in disgust at the rest of it :D

    To be fair they do look nice in terms of finish in the Ineos colours

    And the cassette and rear disc are not on the same centre....or else the whole bike is at an angle


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 54,157 CMod ✭✭✭✭magicbastarder


    that would only happen if the camera was placed facing square on to the rear axle; i've yet to see that as an angle someone would choose when photographing a bike to try to make it look good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,318 ✭✭✭✭Raam


    This one is mine. God it's awful.

    Bike is awful too.
