[Flesh Warning] Wet Dreams & Dogma Porn

[Eldron]

This doesn't really appeal to me, I think they've gone a bit too far over the top. I guess I'm a bit old-fashioned. Just as well because I could never afford one of these in any case...

 

Thanks for the pics. [i almost missed this thread though, when I saw the heading I almost passed it over thinking its another eye candy/Liz Hatch/etc thread...]

 

Sadly I think I'm with Tumble - it looks like all straight edges in the building were confiscated before design started - too many swooshes, curves, bends and arcs.

 

The seat tube / top tube junction looks like someone drove into the back of it.

 

That said - it is a glorious looking frame - not my style - but a fine piece of bicycle porn none the less.

 

I enjoy the geek tech like assymetrical frame and fork - interesting stuff.

 

Thanks for the journey Tankman!

I am with Eldron on this... this bike is the latina girl in the corner with puffy lips.

 

I more of a blonde skinny type of guy... but hey each to his own..

 

I prefer the straight edges, this bike although gorgeous, probably has best in class vertical compliance, but will never be the stiffest or lightest bike out there...

[grumpy]

Not for me, guess it's a acquired taste...

 

I get the feeling this is what a normal bike will look like if you are high on speed...

Those Rav-X cages in the last pic are quite nice. They go for about R350 each.

Looks nice I suppose. Even though it seems like some klapped it with a hammer in a few places.

 

What excited me the most are the Lightweight and Most Lightweight wheels! Now that is worth looking at!!

[Skott5]

Not a roadie, but that is a HOT bike !

Why waste so much money on bike that has not even featured on any podium of any significance the entire year..... Specialized Tarmac SL3 all the way. Cheaper. lighter, stiffer and BETTER

Meh. Podium position's more about the team doctor than the team kit supplier.

 

I must say, I'm really not a fan of the Dogma. In an abstract kind of way, I can see how someone might like it, but it just doesn't do it for me. And it's extremely heavy for the price.

Would you meant to say was..... The Dogma is like a hawt Latinto chic (Euro Trash as well). Looks f00kin awesome when they are young and under 30 but age like their mothers. Get hairy top lips and look the shape of trash cans with two (love) handles when they get older. Need too much maintenance & lube when old.

 

Fugly bikes and vastly over priced.

 

When it comes to "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", Dogma fanatics need to buy new white canes !

Me too. The wavy tubes don't do it for me, I really prefer a more traditional looking bike.

[Tankman]

Each to their own whether you like these or not but only someone cycling with baby blue puma socks will call these fugly

But with Shimano? Is that even legal?
