Feb BoTM 2008 Redux

At first i didn't like a lot of these bikes but the more i look at them the nicer they appear to be. How ever i think the addition of the Stumpy stole votes from Emery. But the Stumpy, Emery, and Ibis are really nice bikes!! I have to say i don't get the Orange but that appears to be just me, It must have some appeal that is beyond me.

Orange clockwork gets my vote - just A-typical UK retro bike

Ditto.. Epitomy of the Era.. Owned three myself.. Love 'em..

I would say something about the Emery versus the Orange:
The Orange is a very nice rebuilt, older then the Emery, and I love it.
But, on the Emery, the Kooka cranckset, Hope hubs, Controltech parts are really more difficult and rare to find than the complete Shimano set of parts on the Orange.
That is why the Emery - in my opinion - took the advantage.

Clockworks never fitted me

The Ibis is awesome but I still want to ride that P20 the most

It's an international bike, french frame, lovely english parts (hope, x-lite), american components (kooka, boone, control tech...) and japanese one :roll:

9 days left. It's all even. Who will win? Orange or Emery? England or France?

Went for the Ibis - but the Alien was a bike I drooled over back in my youth.

Some cracking looking bikes in this selection though - I'd happily have any of them.
