Modern Stuff that appeals to the retro crowd...

[Mikey08]

Hi all. Dont know about you but I find most modern stuff really ugly. What modern bikes do you guys like the look of that have that classic look?

2 here that I would happily own but would probably need a lottery win first, The Nicolai is £6500! :shock:

Lol

Ive not seen any up to date bikes that really got me drooling, apart from the Nicolai but thats 2017 so its old hat now But it reminds me of the first Turner Burner I ever saw which was a bike I lusted after BITD.

The Ritchey is 2012 I think.

Most bang up to date stuff has a head angle that looks like it was designed by Paul snr!

Component wise, I m loving the German CNC lovliness from Tune and Trickstuff. Check out the Piccola brakes OMG

If I was forced to buy modern bikes I'd consider these.

The charge cooker midi of around 2016 looked very much like an old school mountain bike but beefed up. Decent ride too:
