Don't get me wrong. I love looking at fancy bikes too. Just a friendly reminder that bikes which are used daily don't look perfect. And I love it that way! I love my bike, I own only a single fixed gear and ride it as much as possible. Sometimes, while seeing all these shiny high cost bikes on the internet I feel like other people when they get confronted with unrealistic bodies on instagram or whatever.
What do you think of my bike though?
Custom made aluminum frame from polish producer mielec, Miche Advanced Pista crank and chain ring (49t, 16t on the back wheel), Columbus Tusk carbon fork, Cinelli VAI stem and seat post and Cinelli Pepper handlebar. Novatec wheels with Gatorskins.

Mielec is hot af keep your NJS 🫦
This does not look ridden at all lol… Or my bike gets unnecessarily dirty…
Your bike looks pretty pristine, almost unused.
aight bro calm down
Are we bragging about riding bikes now?
This bike is nearly spotless lol
Aka what it looks like if you broke
People who own shiny high cost bikes tend to take care of what they paid for, I’ve never acquired paint scuffs from just “riding”
Oh, so we are supposed to ride bikes now too.. Whats next?
Do you just drop your bike and throw it around?
People can get bumps and scratches in just one cycling session… but those straps seen better days, those been definitely used for a lot of time, did you self painted the whole frame?
my bike also looks used like this, but its a much cooler build
Stoked you’re stoked on your (clean) ride, but don’t yuck someone’s yum for rocking another steed. Just keep rolling and keep the gatekeeping outta here. No hate, just my two cents. Safe travels ✌🏻
You know it’s ok to do both right?
I’ve seen nobody pose w/ their bike here. I might post here ionno haha. Nice baaw tho!
Guys, since some people got really salty: The title was written tongue in cheek, I enjoy fancy shiny bikes just as much as anybody here..
Either OP really thinks people out here buying bikes for the sole purpose of just posting them or he gets annoyed when people post dope photos of bikes on the FGB subreddit… must be fun at parties.
Is you posting this for likes not exactly what you’re complaining about?? If you truly held this opinion you wouldn’t post it at all lol
bike is cool. rider is questionable.
Those are not riding marks. Those are low care/city parking marks.
Nice work on the reddit edgy energy though
