Any modern 4-piece bar.

for real.....they look like giant boxes....i like 4pc bars that get really narrow like the odyssey 4x4 bars

i always thought the 4x4s were too wide at the top for how narrow they were at the bottom, looked proper 90s though which was the point i guess. i prefer the bonedeths, but the bobs are the best looking 4pc.

11z do look stupid even though ive got 2 pairs. someone bring out a 10" high bar with a narrow box for old tall people plz
this year i am going to have sex and it will be awesome

hit up Dylan @ WE bicycles....its flatland oriented but I'm sure he could make you bars that would suit you

Rasta stuff, any parts or clothes with weed leaves on, white parts (made this mistake), any parts that aren't black, raw, red or British racing green, nine piece bars with a really skinny box, coloured pegs, leopard print seats, stem stackers on top of a stem.

i know it has an old school touch. i just dont like the silver linings on it and the teeth shape.



i may think odyssey has gone a long way down just like some other brands. They should focus on making 3 different types of brake lever front and rear and cheap u brakes for the sunday bikes.

I really really really hate the look of these new 2.4 or above tires. It just looks ridiculous. Why do you need bigger tires for softer landings when you know damn well that the majority of your spot is a foot tall ledge.

Agreed. If you need softer landings than "2.25 at 50psi then you're doing something wrong.

i like both of those odyssey sprockets. the chainwheel was cool, and the hawk one looks better in non bronze. wouldnt run either though simply cos i dont trust myself without a bashguard

I think my St Martin frame looks goofy but here I am prying back together again. ...I'll never escape it lol.

Crazy flatland frames are ugly

The Merritt Merritt stem has grown on me which is probably why i got it. In pics it looks weird. Up close not nearly as bad as it seems.
As for 4pc bars the gabe brooks bars look about right. They arent super wide and the box is narrow because of it.
I dont think 10" bars will ever loom good.
Sadly i like the primo cranks, a part of me still loves the shit they make.
Most tripod seats are ugly especialy mutiny's seats. Just cant get with that banana shape.

The ugliness of the MTT tires pales in comparison to the ugliness of the Vans/Cult waffle tire.
