Can someone can tell my how an elevated chainstay monocoque carbon-fibreglass near 30lb full rigid bike is NOT a "Dead End" design?

If it's not dead end, there are flaws and loopholes in this month's category... ;)

Ouch.... I thought this was Retrobike not VRC

Lets see what you have put together...

Or at least your interpretation of decent.....

there are some seriously screwed up ideas of whats "dead end" in this thread


is it still 2 pic max, or is that per page?

Nobody in their right mind would seriously make a bike like mine again. There was a short lived period of drum braked MTBs around 1985/6 but they were heavy and the brakes are shite (they improve your downhill riding though).

My entry this month is just for fun.

meh, however you wanna justify it. I was hoping/expecting to see a bunch of oddballs, not a buncha normal looking bikes with a dated component here or there

didn't think the rule re # of pics was open to interpretation too
