Not single speed, not a 29er with portable tofu farm in utility trailer. Just a good old fashioned hardtail winter hack, and I like it!

bring on the "sofa cover's not straight" and "did you build it the lounge? I can see the stand in the background"

Nice but I would've been tempted to use a black seatpost.

cheers for the nice comments...

and yes the white rims are for attention whores. Or for attracting attention when bike and rider are upside down in a peat bog!

Just stating the obvious really, but stevie wonder obviously chose your carpet and my gran seems to have left her 'toilet rug' in your front room by the looks of things.

That looks really nice fella.
A colour scheme I haven't seen elsewhere. Works well I think.

Somebody has left a skid mark on your wall. Nice bike. Your definition of winter hack is different to mine I think!

the porn rug is to hide the hideous cheap carpet... it's a rented place!

Cheers for pointing out the skid mark... it's a blemish in stone at the side of the lovely range fire I've got 🙂

it is indeed a 16" frame, I'm about 5'10" and it seems to fit fine.

trek not exactly tucked away, it'll come out for longer/dryer days. on one for everything else if it's comfy enough.

I may live to regret all the white stuff, but my trek's no better I suppose.
