Frame & Forks - Those Quirky Design Features That You Loathe

(1/6) > >>

Retrodan72:
I thought I'd ask the question to run in line with this thread, where we've all stated what gets our juices flowing with various frame sets:

Ok, so loathe is a strong word, but what features that have been designed really put you off any frames. For me, the one that sticks out in my mind is the Curtis Freestyler, those rear standers. I loved the frame when I first saw it in 2008, but those standers look awful IMHO.

So what about you guys?

Let's try and avoid Burner bashing here too.  :daumenhoch:

I know they are popular/iconic and well liked but I really dislike the look of the Quadangle.

When they have an attempted 'top tube' (if you can call it that) pad on as well, it looks like somebody has tried to lay a tarpaulin over a scaffolding accident.

oldscool:
That stupid slingshot thing with wire for a frame.

I love the look of a naked quad, but agree with a pad on it looks wrong IMO



deeman:
I actually like the rear standers on the Curtis Dan as they are at 45 degrees and actually look like they would work when the bike is in the air...I do loathe the flat hoop type standers though...useless for anything other than infinity rolls! Oh, and high fork pegs....horrible to use.
Fook it I will be the first to bash Burners other than the Aero Pro......I LOATHE the standard Mk2 frame!  :daumenhoch:
