Helvetica Bike
When I saw the link for this I thought, oooh, typography and bikes, winner. WRONG! The more I look at this the more I hate it. Two front rings with no shifter. Freewheel with no breaks. If you’re going for “purity and clarity”, don’t use a converted road frame with bottle mounts and decorative lugs. Also, as one of the comments on the site says, “slam that stem”! These guys would have done well to look at Gav’s Boikzmoind boik.

Sigh. I’ve become a bike snob. /A
