Anyone fancy anything by Berk Composites for their bikes? Not surprised that there's a full carbon saddle. Strangely no Carbon Clinchers though.

    I often look with fondness and wonder at his creations on WW. He did a saddle combo for Wiggins pre tour. His frame looks amazing.

    I'll be picking up one of he saddles as soon as he's finished prototyping. Can't believe he's just a kid. Absolute artist with carbon.

    Nothing odd about I'm not making carbon clinchers. He, like all true weight weenies, rides tubs.

    Note to self: be less subtle.

    Im definitely on the waiting list for one of the new proto-type saddle. Any idea on when he'll be finished tweaking the product?

    Well, given that it's his name. Are you 12?

    No. I'm 12 and three quarters.

    I wouldn't have anything with Berk written on it on my bike though, or Prick or Tit for that matter... I bet I'm not the only one either.

    Ain't no skin off my back. I ride a bright pink bike and could care less what others think of my lot. If anything I think it adds a certain Cockney flavour that you won't find on other components...

    If you are really getting yourself that worked up over a removable sticker I would ask who the berk actually is?

    It's a work of art

    Is it just me who thinks it's a bad idea to have 'berk' written on your bike..?

    It would seem that you are not.

    Absolutely, especially the cock-er-knee angle - plus if people can read it, you're obviously cycling too slowly.
