It's not exactly to my taste..... but I won't knock it for that. It's one mans vision of what he wants, and the world would be a dull place indeed if everyone had bikes that looked the same.

There are some really nice touches on there that I have not seen elsewhere. Especially the tail end, which is so much more than just a hoop. The hoop section follows hte same angle as the sloping rear frame section, and the inspired little extension in thin tube to make a tail unit...that isn't a tail unit... but instead an outline of one.

Would I want to own it...honestly...no.

Can I admire the workmanship, the effort and the faultless finish. Hell yes.
