Riding a bike is a pain in the ass !

At least it would be if you rode this for too long Just seen it for sale (unsurprisingly ) !

I would rather that than this

Not if you use a brooks saddle !

I think I would topple over the bars sitting at that angle!

Exhibitionist, masochist and bicycle thief ( looks like he nicked it off a smaller person)

One slip in those flip flops and no shorts are gonna save you !

 

[CanucksTraveller]

I was immediately thinking that! Flip flops in the rain, and no saddle? Sore bottom time!

It's just a time-trial or, more likely, triathlon bike. You'd look daft riding it to work or to the shops.

I honestly don't know how you ride a bike with a high seat a low bars, it just doesn't seem to fit with male parts...


Cool looking bike

It's the cycling equivalent of a German sports saloon tuned to fart on the overrun drawing attention to the driver's small self-esteem.

The cyclist in flip flops might need the services of a colo-rectal surgeon if a foot slips off a pedal.

I've seen more painful looking set ups!

My saddle clamp broke near Old Town, a village on the hillside above Hebden Bridge where I lived at the time. I had to ride home standing up (in proper cycling shoes NOT flip flops!) with the saddle in my jersey pocket. I took the precaution of lowering the seat post as far as it would go first though!

My seat is none too clever to be honest. After about 15 miles its a killer on the old derriere. Any recommendations would be appreciated

Oooh now you've done it , be prepared for an avalanche of info/opinions
My four-pence worth would be try a Selle Italia Flight flow if you haven't already done so.
I am gradually putting one on each of my regular rides , they dont look comfortable but if you are far enough back on the saddle with your "sit bones" on the wider padded part l find them ok. and they are gender specific which helps as well .
