it might save you money but probably won't save your front teethI saw this advertised in Gumtree. Interesting set-up.

yeah we do indeed...the usual "but I got it brand new from asda, tesco, jjb, halford etc etc...and I/They built it up properly, you dont have an f-ing clue" come along with it when we say, erm, this bike is going to cause your child to get injured.
We see kids turning up for Bikeability training with bikes built like this all the time.
track geometries, hmm... like training bra for your first fixie. I would imagine.. ah hem..
Do those forks make Endos easier to pull off?
I see this so many times, commuting... forks back to front, genius! I even stopped one lady to explain, wish I hadn't!

Yep, done the same to a father and son once as the kid's bike looked like a crash waiting to happen. The father gave me a mouthful of abuse for being nosey. I am guessing he built it up for his son and 'knew what he was doing!'
didn't we see that at Eurobike?
Don't often see a bike on Gumtree with both wheels. Although I'm sure there's a Perfectly Reasonable Explanation for the ones that have the front wheel missing
Thank's how all the kids roll round here. It give the bike awesome handling.
Gotta love that aero brake mount - not sure how it would benefit a bike such as this but hey, each to their own!
