Retro bikes you saw V 2.0

[Synthiaks]

Nice saracen spotted in the City of London today....seems original other than seat and tyres, even the Strong seatpost & XCII pedals intact...

Love the giant old-skool bell

I often see one of this model being ridden in a morning by some fella when I'm taking my son to work.

I always thought the forks looked slightly bent and where about to fold at any moment but looking at this photo tells me that's just how they are.

Yep, always thought that when they were current. Awful fork with no attempt at damping but it must have sold a few bikes for them when sussy forks became popular. Less said about the activator II the better though IMO

..... i rate him on the dangerous side of odd.

Aren't we all though?

The audacity to use the bikes as bikes

Terrible behaviour, especially when they're "just" a hack... Would never do that to my '91 palisades lol

Spotted this in Milford on sea today looking a little worst for wear

York city centre... Don't think I have ever seen a miyata in the flesh before.

Went in a second hand store and found this on sale for 65€, unfortunately I can’t bring it home.
