Bike of The Month January 2015 - Underdog special

[Ductape]

BOTM is much more than the submission then voting on pretty bikes, it is also about deep thought provoking intellectual discussion about unique topics.

I think we should get back to those red tires. BMX inspired? Certainly my thoughts?

Re: Re:

For what it is worth..

I reckon the contribution of TPC elevate the site.

When I was a youth I used to race cars, motorbikes, yachts and whatever else I could get hold of. Nothing special, but one or two of the people doing the same had seemingly limitless funds, coming from a motor company family or such. Their enthusiasm and love for the activity was no less than anyone else's, despite it being their 'business'.

The posts in this thread have yet again revealed the taking the ball home attitude that no one really should still have by age twelve, never mind the advanced years of a lot of these members.

For goodness sake, there are kids starving in this world!

Perhaps you don't understand my post. Feel free to ask me to explain before attacking me personally. Or are you merely striving to get your post count up?

All I see are rehashed opinions and inflammatory remarks. As usual.

Been on here a couple of years now. Not noticed much building, buying, selling, riding, karma or bike advice from you in that time. Just this kind of thing when you appear to be looking to wind things up.

Post count us an old cheap shot.

This BOTM seems to have become daft enough for me to enter... I'll post a bike up tomorrow.

I like this place more than cheese and onion crisps and I really like those.

If that is all it took wouldn't there be operations popping up like this in every major city. Biggest seller!

Um.....I read recently that they just opened a 2nd location in another major bike city along some heavily used bike trail?

I think the XTR chainstay protector is a nice touch

I almost want you to use blue elastomers to balance the blue cable ends or one red and one blue... Not that they made red ones.
