An upper-end steel frame repurposed for functionality while maintaining subtle class. The inclusion of warm colored leather contact points go well to complement the tranquil color of the frame, each bringing each other out in vibrancy. Finally, the gum-walled tires complement the silver components which makes a quiet, yet firm statement of poise. The bike is beautiful and ready to be used in a world that is anything but.
I think its porn worthy, son.

Wow, that was quite the warm and fuzzy response. You're welcome to your opinon, but a track bike with a porteur rack is jackass, buddy. You might look up terms like wheel flop, TCO and trail.

And even if it is twitchy and is an absolute pain to carry anything in the rack, I still think it looks nice.

I'm calling it jackass without any consideration to aesthetics.

Then all of these classic steel bikes that we are seeing are inherently inferior to any carbon monstrosity that we see racing in the olympics nowadays, if we're speaking pragmatically.
Don't get me wrong, I think aesthetic discussion is bull**** like I assume you do as well. But when I talk about "porn", I use that term as a healthy combination of looks and functionality. In a hxc video, you want a beautiful woman that ****s like a daemon-spawn.

Anything i put in here is based soely on aesthetics unless i mention otherwise
any discussion of aesthetics is entirely objective based upon the viewer
One mans treasure is another mans trash, no big deal

Pretty sure that's the French National Track Team's bike. So if there's someone on that bike, they are definitely not a poseur. I want a Shimano Zen ring so so bad.

Yeah, that is what I mean, its just sour grapes on my part, as I could never ride that bike justifiably. Meh, there are other beautiful things i won't get to ride either.
