Bike looks super cool.
cool wheel/tyre combo. Frame kudos. That is all.
Let it rest more peacefully in peices, because as a whole it's like the frantic effeminate kid that would do flips on the monkey bars. Not right now clinton...
Does that sticker really say shitshifter.com?
Apt.
No offence though. I'm a big fan, but this thing is an affront to the sweet grass it lays on.
What kind of person leaves anonymous comments like that?
Who are you?
Too scared to say?
ANONYMOUS HATES YOU
Awesome bike Mark, Love how it turned out, but as you know I am a big fan of blue and purple, maybe you share the same addiction as me, why buy black parts when they come in so many pretty colours, haha. rad, anyway looks cool.
No hate, just opinion spiced with a little story. Perhaps the sticker comment was a little over the top.
The post asked for opinion!
Geez, Sorry.
This kind of misconception is why I'm so scared all the time. Thank Buddha for anonymaty.
opinions good or bad are good!
Dear zombie,
who said the living dead couldn't be sweeties? No one as far as I know, but I thought I'd just point it out.
Much love and oneness,
Anonymous1.
P.S. love and monobeingism to you too justinh, even though you scared me. Haha, this is a wierd comments section. I'm gonna go listen to Rush
ha, thanks for the comments doods. Looks like this ungodly mix of parts got people a bit emotional. Im almost scared to dismantle it like striking down Obe One it will only become more powerful spreading its seed into the universe and corrupting other perfectly respectable bikes. anonymous1 is welcome back anytime. I think his comments and musical tastes are comical. well done.
I'm feelin it. Purple is always good
