2. Keep all comments and criticism constructive, avoid personal attacks.
3. It is strongly suggested all bikes are placed in the reader's bikes section prior to entry into BoTM. In this way a bike can under go a more gentle critique prior to the spotlight and interest of BoTM. More detail and extra pictures can be added here.

9. One bike per user per month - don't be greedy.
10. Judges decision is final.
11. If a bike wins BoTM it cannot be re-entered in any poll by the same owner. If it is sold any re-entry is strictly at the judges discretion.
12. Bikes can only be entered once in a normal month and once in a special month. That is you can enter any bike TWICE (unless it wins in which case it cannot be entered again - see rule 11).
13. Don't take it too seriously

, Handmade & Handpainted by John Slawta (the founder and owner of Land Shark). I have it set up 7400/7401 with Shimano Dura Ace group. Mavic rims, Selle Italia Turbo saddle, handlebars and stem 3ttt. A nice gimmick is the air pump Silca John has painted the frame color. The paint is very crazy and it lights up real nice too
