    Frame Designs that Shouldn't Work but Do!

    There's a village in France celebrated Obree for years (they had a fete for the 'Flying Scotsman') appreciated the skill of the amateur, constructeur and general genius of the guy who not only took on Boardman and humped him, but also the UCI and made them look like the stuck up, stuck in the...

    Obree was probably 10 years ahead of the technology/materials science. Eventually Mike Burrows helped him out with carbon construction but by then his athletic star was on the decline. It should be remembered that he absolutely humped Boardman (the best that British Cycling could provide) on...

    Not a big fan of the grief they give, but Foreigner on here sells a lot of stuff on it (Foreigner65). I guess them 'London Types' got all the munny! Have a free bump anyhow!

    Reduced Colnago Mega Master Azzure Blue 55cm with h/set

    Yeah, I think everyone waiting on election results, hoping for a catharsis before hand goes in pocket. There won't be one of course! Governments change and nothing much happens. Best we can hope for is a partial reintegration into the currency union/free trade with Europe and maybe freedom of...

    The night he did the 18'45" it was a typical Scottish June evening, not near warm and rained all the way out to the turn. He was on a massive gear, a 55x13 as I remember and my pal who was stood at the roundabout turn said he almost killed himself trying to get in front of a volvo estate. First...

    I was lucky enough to watch Obree clock an 18'45" ten on the original bike. Totally unassuming guy, just stepped off the bike a quick nod to the timekeepers and then into his hooded parka and away.
