Bar End
Not got bar ends, you're not coming in.

Obligatory close up shot of the bar end setup needed to enter (as the second picture)

Is anyone brave enough to enter a bike with risers....

Thats a great idea as not many bikes built now with bar ends in place given that they were THE thing to have on your bike bitd...personally i love them!!

Bar end discussion is blowing up on RetroBike. I think I caught the bug... I'm going to replace the fuzzy dice hanging from my trucks rear view mirror with an old set of bar ends!

There was a time in history where "good" came from Taiwan.
And I'm not referring to the usual Giant or Merida, etc. (which would also work, of course), I'm referring to the "MADE IN TAIWAN"
It would be interesting to see the Marin, Kona and etc etc etc that could appear

I wonder whether we can do a "Bike + Vehicle" themed month, such as Bike + Car, Bike + Helicopter, Bike + Boat...etc if you get the idea.
Have done it before for a car club calendar where its was car + other interesting format of transport.
Might look good if you have a vehicle that is of similar vintage or colour way to the bike, or is simply unusual to look at alongside the bike.

Time to find a new hobby...cars maybe?

I still think a budget BOTM would be really cool.

Only stuff that was originally budget, or below a certain price.

I fully support this motion.
There are a lot of mid-range bikes that made us fall in love with this sport.
Almost all of them were modified according to the tastes of their owners as they became more interested in MTB until they made the leap to the bicycle of their dreams.
Without them and those bicycles, MTB would not exist today.
There are also filth...but hey, I guess we all know how to distinguish between an interesting bicycle with LX 550 and another in "bed tube" iron and with Sunrace changes

It would be interesting, but I'm sorry to say that my passion for bicycles has ruined me. Now I can only continue with this habit and take advantage of all the accumulated material, I don't have a penny left for other hobbies
