Allspeeds Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 We’re would you all value something like that? Rarity value plus quality of build plus history status just interested? 15-20k? Or less? Quote
K.H.I Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 I can see a Terrible Tuning services logo, so with that in mind £4. 1 Quote
TLRS Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 Seems like it's quite a well known and loved bike.. makes putting a price on it quite difficult. Quote
Allspeeds Posted October 22, 2018 Posted October 22, 2018 Would love to own it but would have to go back to old school cool paint Quote
davecara Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 From what I saw on fartbook this morning, Marks building another one Quote
bluedog59 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Can't say I like it, form over function and about as much use a chocolate teapot. Quote
clivegto Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Looks pretty dam cool to me, what I would call a TOOL. Quote
Duckndive Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 And unlike another big tube Ali frame the tubes run parallel with the head fins Quote

No Sweary dint listen to Steve just gave him some verbal "how surprising" but he did change it on the oil boiler frames strangely Martek frames always had the tubes parallel Quote

Fine if that's what you want but I'm surrounded by fast and bumpy B roads and prefer something that is fast over the whole route A to B, not something I'm fighting keep the front down on and pointing in the right direction. I'm sure there is probably a good bike in there but not in it's present set up. Quote
Dezza Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 I can appreciate the work and build quality of this bike. It's not my sort of thing either though, as it's all a bit bling. Someone's built the bike they wanted so good for them. There are bits on that bike I would definitely want on mine, and bits on it I wouldn't put on my bike ever. I am sure the same goes for other people when they look at my bikes too though! 1 Quote

I think something like your Harris and the way it's set up would be far better to ride. I'm sure your Spondon will be the same, function first and foremost. Quote

Interesting logic...... Quote
