Stupid Bike of the Day

shit that rights up johnson's nightmares

Saw this ridiculous bike over at Swedish classified site blocket.se

It looks like what an idiot with an arc welder, one of the old Trek Y-bike full-suspensions, and a shitload of acid might do.

Broseph wants 5000 krowns ($700) for it too. MIGHT.

    any time the words ‘octogon, cycle, or pro’ are on a bike, you should steer clear. further: anytime a bike is that color, you should stay away. also, it either has really short stays or a really slack seat angle, both of which arnt good. good find.

    This is the future, don’t let it pass you by! A lugged model will be available shortly.

    I guess when you can’t re-invent the wheel…the only thing left is sitting around for days drunk, thinking of something witty and artistic to do with a frame. I can’t find one advantage to this design…other than I wouldn’t have to clean it after I vomited on it from the pain of having the seat stays break off from what I would hesitate to call a seat tube and stab into my legs just north of my knees. I’m wondering if this is the same Cycle Pro that tried to make BMX bikes in the 80’s and couldn’t figure that out either. OH WAIT!, I found an advantage in this design! After being impaled by the seat stays I would nut myself on the water bottle cage and the water bottle would send a glorious blood stained arc of backwash over the bars and moisten the ground in front of me thus lessening the friction of the inevitable slide I would perform from breaking (read=riding) this bike. YAY!
