The anti Klein brigade.

I hope you were referring to a klein....not a dentist.........or that sentence is all kinds of wrong...

If I got ridden by a dentist I'd make a formal complaint. The charge is molestation enough for me.

Hi,

Can't agree more.

Personally, I was trying to stay a bit away of any kind of Klein bikes, now for almost 30 years, because some of the buyers, at least some of the original buyers back-in-time, had been a specific type of person or character I'm not looking up a lot. Sometimes rather not interested to buy a great ride for sports activities but to buy something to raise attention or polishing an image.
Anyway, instead of starting a fight, let me share a nice picture, hopefully for a laugh.
From an underwear brochure from 1995, to me those guys look like a dentist and his wife, would you agree?
Of course the accessorizes have to fit to this scenario

Have a Klein, get the girl?

Optometrists. Just saying

From a visual standpoint Klein's are beautiful... until you ride one. And then you go back to steel & titanium.

I didn't know anyone in the 1990s who owned a Klein. Of the people I knew, the flash/expensive bikes were titanium and full suspension.

Any Klein owners have that underwear? NOS vacuum packed in the same build box with a MC stem/bar and press fit BB?

If I were a Klein owner I'd never wear underwear

Two standout bikes I've owned & ridden, Klein Attitude, Pace RC200. Both visually stunning, light, fast, agile, responsive, harsh (well, they are race bikes), and both cracked...
I guess they deserve their places in mtb folklore, but generally the steel & Ti bikes are still going strong all these years later.
