Like many members of this fine forum, I enjoy a spot of eBay window shopping. Unlike many members, I run a private and highly personal eBay bike of the week competition - wherein I nominate and select my favourites. This week is a fugly, very foreign looking MZ 500R from '94 - with particularly fetching wheels. For years and years and years I really disliked these bikes - but as I approach the pipe and slippers demographic I am finding myself increasingly drawn to their horrendous lines, bizarre geometry and eccentric rake. Not so much sit up and beg as recline and implore:

What a decadent capitalist bourgeois notion, to have 'concept designs'.

This bike is for getting Comrade Hans to his job at the wooden leg factory in the depths of the east German winter, not for looking pretty!!

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
