I thought, I was confused by “mushroom grips”, but his crotch being labeled “Special Purpose” definitely beats it…
Lmao, I thought it was pointing at the seat, but no, it goes right past it lolol
In the movie The Jerk, Steve Martin’s character writes a letter to his mother saying he learned what his “special purpose” was for after having sex for the first time. Presumably, that was the way she explained his penis to him. This must be a reference to that.
…it went drip drip drip
Finally, some proper representation.
Well this is mildly epic
I love when vintage finds are still relevant today.
I wonder who here is old enough to get the reference…
You won’t catch me riding that thing. Here’s my bike, no brakes, no gears, no reflectors, no context…
Shut up, Brian
Just… have an upvote 😂
Nice bike for real tho bro
“Fixed gears; steel frame; no brakes. The bike can not coast. The pedals never stop turning. Can’t stop. Don’t want to either.”
LOL, that’s a fixie. I have a freewheel. My shoes are my brakes.
Ahh, the movie that solidified my hatred of cyclists.
no gears
I clearly see one gear at the hub there m8
No shiftable/selectable gears, single speed. You know what I meant LOL!
This looks like the late 80s (or maybe early 90s) and what looks like a freestyle BMX bike with the caption “how to be awesome” - but no mention of Haro or Diamondback? I call bullshit.
Don’t BMX bikes typically not have gears?
Hell if I know. Were bikes with gears considered how to be awesome in the 80s or 90s?
Where i live they didn’t have gears, yet they had a gear shifter, just for the cool factor, I guess
what would 10 speed mean here? 2x5?
That shifter is amazing.
Pubes shirt?
How to be plagued by wedgies, judging by that seat angle.
And the ball protector 3000
If only a person’s belongings were a true representation of their character.
Man, they’re not kidding! That bike is awesome.
