Quite right. It's not very nice for adults to tease children.

You used to get some really beautiful cranksets back in the days of steel framed ten speeds, I love my Lambert & Viscount drilled big ring on my 60s racer. Even the 90s STX crankset on my MTB looks all right.

When did it all go wrong? Modern shimano road cranksets look to me like someone's glued a UFO to the bottom bracket, don't like them at all!

When the adverts proclaim a "triple monocoque" frame. Like the whole point of monocoque is singular and the marketing department dupe us into thinking more is better. Pfft. I think I saw that on a spesh. They're a marketing company these days right?

Dropped seatstays and Curved seatstays. Got to be straight.
Bianchi Celeste, just vile.
I'm with you on the curved seatstays.
