And that description... Truly I give this bike & his creator the true Hipster Junk Award Of Stupidness...

LOL Judging by the Ceepo website and their prices (frames alone around 4500$, but on sale for 2200$ - get yours now!) must be some designer drugs. So if the driver of a Rolls Royce with tinted windows says he has an interesting offer for you try to ignore him.
I am not into sport bikes myself, but this one is evil.

Ceepo is no Cheepo!

My own a while ago: Why is it ugly you might ask?
Well for starters, the rear sprocket is a freewheel type which I found in the dumpster and then welded it (very ugly weld) so that it is a "fixed gear".

The first handlebar was made from broomstick-wood. It broke during the first trip...

The paint job is nice though...

Does that bike have... cottered cranks?

What is even the purpose of that kind of races?

 

[MattiThundrrr]

Hemmingway wrote about that form of racing in one of his novels.

Stayer bikes on the street?
