yep, pull my bike, the last three are the most dead end looking things I have ever seen...

Why enter it and pull it YET again...?

You never Know your bike might win.

He's all shook up :?

Maybe just shy?

Does a linkage front fork count as a dead end? Because if so then all my mountain bikes are eligible lol.

here you go (my apologies in advance if it isn't dead enough) :

Purple was such a dead end colour... ;-)

I would like to throw my freshly build Action Tec F-16 in. More pictures here.

Prototype w/o serial number ...

So, is this month's voting being based on the degree of dead-endness, or the best looking bike of all the dead end examples?

Basically, what I'm asking is are we looking for the best looking stupid bike, or the stupidest bike?

Surely we must vote for the best looking, best built and most interesting dead-end bike. It might be stupid, might be genuis, might have been acceptable in its day but left behind by the march of progress - like a T-Rex.

I couldn't vote for a crap bike that happens to be defunct. That would be like voting for a Dodo with alopecia.

 

[yo-Nate-y]

I'll be voting for the bike that has the best balance of "I am glad not to HAVE TO RIDE it" now, but at one point would have had the most "WOW I WISH I COULD RIDE THAT" then.

Oh, and neon.

 

[Ductape]

I will vote for that stylin defunct Klunker....
I don't care what Ameybrook says!

Oh wait, it's mine.....
