lemmys house of style



Because its winter and there aint much other to do other than drink and zwift
...im priding myself on the treasures that can be found on that old love/hate relationship thing I have called Evilbay
I tell you haters if you have not paid attention over the last few years its a buyers market for the declining bicycle industry..why the human race is still paying full retard for high and the latest bicycle wizardry is beyond my brain capacity..
Yea sure there are those fools out there thinking they're going to make bank on that old purple anodized Kooka crankset..yes there is a sucker born every minute..but not all suckers are lead to the pay more than threshold wattage for the next make me the fastest Cat2 pro who still should be a 3...
No..not me...
If was pedaling a bike and decent numbers along with a skill set that rivaled a few of vets of the scene this is where id be spending my extra booze grip



Buy it now for $175
under the right guy
This early 90s crit specif Cannondale is a deal of the day
Slap on a new cost-effective 105 11 speed group and moderately priced set of carbon Chinese hoops and id bee willing to be that guy could mix it up with even the most untouchables in our scene 






1993 Pinarello Treviso
US $1,243.99 on the infamous pros closet
OK its not made of plastic
and the wheel depth is far lower than the IQ  of the two dollar kid
You might not make the break at The Waterford worlds..but im sure you're going to gain more cool points with the retro grouch




Haro Extreme TEAM Frame Set MTB
Buy It now for 140$
disc brakes..no
29 inch compatible..no
SWAT box equipped..no
tapered steer..no
So the fuck what its got elevated chain stays and uses a real no-nonsense thread in BB hang the latest 1/11 and carbon rigid for and i betcha the guy that rides this will get laid quicker by that 80s Goth chick that hangs out in front of 129 than anyone at The Velodrome



Cannondale Racing SR
Buy it Now 95$
E-Tap it out and with the grip saved to treat yourself to some 60mm carbon wheels and tell the rest of the Cat 3s to suck your nuts.
Im going solo




The Fat Chance Yo Eddy..
a little outta the normal price range
But the Blue/Fade is garner more gawkers  leaning against the shitter at Island lake than your jacked up 120mm travel free ride rig
go home poser no one wants to hear your TSS 





The Specialized Allez 
should be the unofficial protest against credit card debt
these can be had for Ramen money and still hold there own against the best disc-equipped carbon rig with your name on the top tube you can afford with family money
and this one in the one-off rare blue is worth more than what this cat 5 guy was asking for it..




If you need it, you must believe it
