Eggbeaters and that cassette. It's basically a gravel bike!

The front disc looks photoshopped. Maybe the saddle, too?

It's not a disc, it's cards from a deck of cards

That worn patch at the bend of the bars shows they can't even reach the hoods :doh: :lol:

Doesn't help that they've rolled the bars way up and shoved the hoods down. :unbelievable:

This bike makes me sad. Someone clearly tried quite hard to get it right but just missed the mark in so many ways...

I don't see how that's a freak. It looks like a bad ass commuter bike to me. The dude must be huge and runs like 20 cm of drop.

Agreed. The 9000 crank is the only thing really out of place but I'm assuming he got it for a steal on ebay so no biggie. And all is forgiven anyway for that monster level of drop!

Flip the seatpost forwards and it could be Adam Hansen's hack bike :P

I guess setting up a commuter as a Pro Tour domestique rig is not weird or freakish.

Freaky can be good, no doubt.
