I don’t see what the big deal is here, the bike looks great and is built up with a pretty sensible ‘non-wank’ parts list. I’m sure it rides really well and he is smitten with it.
While we’re all sitting on the internet discussing it, he’s probably out riding it.
Spirito is bring the gold this thread,
I’m sorry it just can’t be the Icarus 2 thread.
And spirito I don’t hate one person that is discrimination, I hate every one equally,
I even have a deeper hate for white rich people just to balance out other people’s racism.
I’m with spirito on this one… Johns a great guy in real life, is heavily passionate about bikes and rides more than you cnuts all put together. when he was here jono he road all the way down to tarns workshop and back to take a few pictures and hang out with him…
the bike looks pretty farking nice and i bet it rides real nice too… i wouldn’t paint a bike purple either ( black thanks ) but thats really the only serious flaw with the whole thing…
i’ll buy a full custom carbon roady one day, most likely a parlee and then i’ll ride the shit outa it
Apologies for the marketing wank. It’s bound to happen with stuff like this but it is 100% enthusiastically legit. Like my love of meat pies and FOA. At least when you voice out against me, I listen. :o
But seriously, whites are the worst. I’ve only ever had death threats on the bike from white guys. I’ve only been swerved at by white guys. Fucken white guys. People of other races, I apologise on behalf of all the white guys.
