Coolwall - Klein

[dbmtb]

Enjoyed looking at the Attitudes and Adroits on display at Harry Halls in Manchester BITD and being impressed by the concept.

Never wanted to own one as I knew I'd be terrified of damaging the paintjob or putting a dent in it.

Finally got to ride one of the last pre-trek ones.

Wasn't overly impressed.

Not cool now, but definitely cool for the innovations made back then.
Press-fit BBs? Check
Integrated headsets? Check
Oversize tubes? Check
Internal cable routing? Check

Three words (OK, one is a contraction) that contain all you need to know:-

THEY'RE NOT STEEL

That is all.

KLEIN = SUPER COOL!
They're the reason I got to retrobikes after all.

Well, as they look like Cannondales with 'Don't bloody crash and scratch me' paintjobs I would say uncool as the only Cannondale I had was a M800 and the biggest pile of shite I've ever ridden. Uncomfortable, bad tracking etc etc. Bikes for walls in American sitcoms..............

Interesting. By that logic, I should dump my girlfriend because she has 2 boobies, brunette hair and is about the same height as my last one. Given what a b*tch the first one turned out to be, I'm sure the current girlfriend will be exactly the same. :roll:

Lend me yours and I'll give it a go and maybe change my mind

Hell, Gator Linear Fade is so damn gorgeous it even makes these Spinergy's look cool.

Gator Linear fade is indeed cool, having seen (and bought) Paul's GLF Rascal in the flesh, I can vouch that photo's really don't do the paint scheme any justice at all......
