    While it's true that most bikes look better in a 56-58 size, only bikes that have clean lines look good in small sizes. Cavs bike is ugly as a baboon butt.

    Can we put tubes and a pump in there in future? That looks like an ideal place for it.

    The images of ugly thread started competing with the Images of beauty thread about 2 or 3 months ago and now every day I have to check which thread I'm in when someone posts a pic of a stunning bike like that ^.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
    Apart from the inflatable forks and the punctured seat-tube, its not bad.

    That's an integrated flask for tea. Do you not see the integrated tea cup on top of it?

    Just getting rid of that odd carbuncle at the seatpost and dropping the top tube a little makes it a bit better.

    It's the standard amount of ugly for a TT bike I think. Is there any nice TT bike?
