You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

It's a rare Segale frame, an Italian bike and frame a bit like Bimota.

Thanks Tony, interesting article. I don't know about the "infinitely better looking than any VTR" bit. I can see a lot of nice bits but I still think I have seen better lookers. I suppose it depends whether you are looking at the aesthetics, engineering or performance.

Umm... the fist one is lovely. The other is fugly. Looks like a meccano set and the standard frame is much better looking. In fact I think the standard frame is lovely. Nowt wrong with it at all.

I like the first one too 8) Spondon stuff always was jaw dropping amazing.

A guy I know has a Fireblade with a Steelheart frame and swingarm which looks pretty slick. Here's their site:-

Don't all go rushing to the Adult section now :wink:
