Dunno if this site has been posted before but I love the colour combinations on these bikes, very American, very retro/modern chic:

Why does this remind me of Ting Tong from Little Britain?

I'd like this one for bikenerd's old bike.

As it has no name, it will be christened the Fury Roadmaster.  Anyone who's read Carl Fogel's hilarious postings to r.b.t. will understand.

Some nice looking bikes on there.  I like the way that this one (and others) has brazed on adjustable gear stops on the down tube. :thumbsup:
Actually, it is rocket science.

You can get them for old DT bosses.

I've got widgets to fit adjusters to bosses, but it's so much nicer if the entire unit is welded onto the frame, very elegant.

That brown single speed with the white head tube looks like it was made for someone about 2m tall  :o :o

Ah, not just me then ;)

There are one or two I rather like on there, such as this one but it is only one or two.  Mostly I'm with Damon.
