Model bikes for your desk?

http://www.pedalmafia.com/pedalid/

Obsessed enough to build a 1/9 scale model of your bike? Can't bear to get through a day at work without catching sight of your beloved treadly?



I'm not judging it, just putting it out there.

mmmm, I wonder if I would, it shouldn't be hard to make a copy of your own bike.

That's pretty amazing. Even if you're not into it, it's a pretty cool idea...

You've got a model of your bike in 1:1 scale!?

This forum is nerdier than I thought!

surely this is a repost, and if it isn't then my 2p is that it's pathetic (types whilst nailing fingerflip on techdeck)

I would have thought incontinence sheets would be better?

I can't bring myself to entertain the thought of model bikes on desks long enough to form a comment on it.

maybe later

But you have a bike as the hood ornament on your Bentley, surely you'd like to complete the set?
