well, this one is a bit different.
after my mate broke his frame and 'borrowed' my spare one, i went looking for another eye catching one.

so here is my new single speed!

10 points to the first person to tell me the frame.......

(and no, its not street hawk!)

    Dunno, but I'll give the first branch/stick/ditch 11 points if it decables your front brake.

    Pass the eye bleach please.

    Looks like a blind man went on a shopping spree on CRC.

    I can't figure out the purpose of it, It sort of resembles a MTB, but the SS gearing looks far too high and it's got skinnies on and a rediculously long, high-rise stem.
    For that reason I'd say it was a commuter hack, but it's got a droppy post, and what appear to be pretty big discs, which seems pointless on a road bike.

    Also, your seat tube is bent.

    I agree... this is odd.

    And that's a nasty kink in the seat tube, might want to get that looked at..

    Just seen the kink, buy a layback post and run back to front. Sorted.

    I'm guessing the frame is a grown-up BMX and pre-dates hydroformed tubesets. Is there a welded joint at the kink in the seat tube? Apart from that insight, I give up - what is it?
