..from Ireland. Simple spaceframe design, long slim tubes and logic. I like the cut of his jib.
And I want a few months off work - Siberia, Mongolia, China's deserts and on to Nepal.

It's the best kind of bike, not the sort that you just want to ride, more the sort that makes you want to go places?

Take a bike like that on a transcontinental journey and the front & rear wheels would frequently be in different time zones!

Would make manuals a thing of the past (or at least give me an excuse to be crap at them).

It's like a limo you can pedal, you could earn food and lodging along the way by giving people or cows a lift to the next village..

Nice bit of work there. Has good taste in pedals too (time atacs).
However, the way that bottle cage is mounted is a bit fugly. Also reckon the front mech isn't in the most optimal position...

You say that as if the rest is all just fine! )
The seat tube is odd too, but the basic frame shape and 'slightly barking framebuilder' element earns him a beer or 3 from me anytime.

Theres something I like about it, not sure what exactly as theres so much to dislike there!

I like that but just think what a new Brookes at that angle would do to your barse

Cargo bikes are ace.
All that room and only one bottle holder though, but then I guess you could carry a barrel on the rear.
Tight corners would be fun if he wanted some playtime
