Kitten of Doom!!!!!!!
I want a New Toy, oh ay oh, nothing too demanding. Ta.
Beer Can Hill has a new resident - Kitten of Doom. Isn’t she fugging gorgeous! KoD is the ultimate set-and-forget commuter, practically the only thing I’ll have to do now is ride the ruddy thing to bed the disc brakes in. And then possibly adjust/replace the head stem. And then decide if 36T is fine … and then decide whether to replace it with 44T … and then have to frig around with the chain line … but like most projects it’s ongoing process of tweaking until optimum results and/or satisfaction is obtained.
The 15′ frame is a Felt MTB of indeterminate gender, the Kona Project 2 forks were pilfered from The Blokes Kona Unit nee Kona Travesty of transcontinental fame, with Alfine 8-speed hub, bomb proof cherry-red Velocity Deep V 32 hole wheel-set, Shimano cable disc brakes and obligatory SKS guards + Zefal toe-clips so I can wear any shoes I goddamn like. The frame was power-coated the same time as the roadie. Read the rest of this entry »
Ahoy! Shiver me timbers!
Well blow me down, tha’r be gratuitous bicycle p0rn booty up on Beer Can Hill!
Arrrrr! Arrryyy!
Cor blimey ….
… phooaarrrr!
Matching red wheelset too.
While you’re dribbling over this German technical loveliness, we be wishing fellow scurvy bilge rats and scallywags a cheery Talk Like a Pirate Day!
Ahoy! And we’ll see yers out spinning on the High streets Seas!
Please don’t try this at home (unless you’ve got a Dremel)
Got send this pic earlier, initially my thoughts were a combination of “it’s obviously photoshopped” and “it’s obviously bollox”.
But no, it’s true, via the ever-creative folk from World of Instructables comes the Cart Bike.
Combine a derelict shopping cart with a bicycle for a ride with ample cargo capacity.
This is a nice way to save a shopping cart and a bike that might otherwise end up in a landfill. It is quite the head turner but not a good corner turner.
IMHO it looks more like a Poor Mans BakFiet that pivots like a brick. And Bill, if you’re reading this, this maybe another project we may need to discuss. Or not.
Lite relief
It’s all getting too much with the tour, so refer to the righthand image for a pearler of an idea to make those troublesome feed zones slightly less risky. Pink bike baskets. A winner, huh? Bonus: the tifosi will absolutely love the surplus hello kittys getting piffed off onto the roadsides.
Big Jonny from DC (aka: two wheels, one dark lord) gets a little boshie and creatively works out his anger with doping cyclists.

And this. Possibly the most disturbing thing I’ve ever encountered on the internets. You’ll possibly require the services of a intensive counseling program if you choose to exercise free will and click on the link.
In closing - GO CADEL!!!!!
Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
The Steed is back from the powdercoaters and is now RED. As with most ongoing projects, the Steed is far from finished and will receive numerous bike p0rn finishing touches. No, the Steed hasn’t 29′ wheels, it’s a itsy-bitsy 41cm frame that’s just dandy for a short arse like me.
Unfortunately the fleeting dalliance with barend shifters and Salsa cyclo-cross levers hasn’t worked out and I will probably commit a serious crime against nature by utilising integrated flat bar shifters with bull horns.
Oh, the sheer perversity!
Must have … must have …

Well, I found my old yellow, rather grubby ones out in the shed yesterday …
