The RB1K is fine. It just needs a black saddle and a simpler, in front of the stem computer mount.

From the 7 speed cassette, to the wonky bars, that's the weirdest "road" bike I've ever seen. Not sure I'd wanna ride that, too far from home!!

Edit: Actually, there's not one thing on that bike that's not weird. The more I look at it, the more I find!!

Please tell me this is photo shopped or some creation from a mechanic to show just how much can be done wrong on a bike.
Pie plate alert.
32 spoke disc 80+ mm deep wheels...
The list is impressive when one stares at it long enough.
The horror...

@Stolichnaya - This was for sale on a local Facebook page. Mind boggling isn it?

The Eurobike is much worse (or better) than the visp, although both are horrific. I'm surprised the Eurobike doesn't come with gripshifts.

I wish I could unsee what i have just saw :(

To be honest I quite like that. It's unconventional, but it looks like the guy knows what he's doing and had a clear plan for what he wanted. It's kinda cool!

The hints of leather and the select components make it look kinda clean. Not digging the paint, but can appreciate that it's custom.
