I'm seriously considering splashing the cash on some assos bib tights. I'm Just over 6ft and around 31" waist, with a mega skinny ass. Would medium suffice? I've gone small on non-bib shorts before to get the fit, but I guess I need length of strap / leg too now.
Also... Rapha deep winter jersey - worth the £160? They look beautiful
that jersey is alot of jersey. I had to wear a jacket over it in -5 though

Why am I talking nonsense? It's bike porn, it's an opinion. I might not like the same porn as you do. I'm not saying people shouldn't like it. It just don't like it. It's not my porn. I don't think it's anti, I just don't think it's porn.
It's a full aero bike but it has normal wheels instead of aero wheels. (sorry should have said rims not big enough not wheels not big enough). I think that that makes the frame look bulky. I think that more aero wheels (or even disc wheels as in the image below) would make this bike more awesome. The wheels are perfect on a conventional track bike. It's just the combination I don't like.
The clearance between the rear wheel and the seat tube makes it look weird. The owner should have made the chain a little bit shorter so there is less clearance. The looks of the bike would improve. Might be that another wheelset could make the clearance look more normal.
The frame is nice. Really it's an awesome design. It could be in bike porn but I don't like the paintjob. I looked at the Edge frameset on the website of BT and that paintjob a lot better then this paintjob IMO.
Change the cranks for something black or carbon (or even partly) to make it look better. The cranks are way to obvious and hasn't got a wow factor imo.
I'm not saying it's an ugly bike. It's not, but this is my opinion.
The way this version of the same frame is setup is a lot better.

This was the setup for the london olympics. I think that this is way more porn. Made for the track, made for the champions. The wheels, the paintjob, the cranks, the clearance at the rear wheel. It just looks better. This bike can handle the look of disc wheels.
Dont suppose you have ever been to a velodrome and know the difference between training/warmup wheels and race wheels? And what swapping them around on your bike does to the clearance between rear wheel and frame.
Edit: and the same training/warmup setup goes for the gray front ring as well ofcourse.

rider probably needs frame a size smaller. #doyouevenseatpost?
ha. If you buy a Zipp component, but have it fitted so that the full logo is not on show then you are doingitwrong
brah do you even race bikes?
It's as common with shallow bar-drop as it is with steep. Cav's bike is a good example. Here is Simon Gerrans:

A couple of sweet second hand rings of the gb team in manchester going cheap.
A 54t Sugino 75 for 35 is not too bad.
