Beautiful Bicycle: Dan’s Street Thrashed Stanridge


Photo by Dan Chabanov

Give me a street-thrashed track bike over a wiped and polished wall hanger anyday. Dan’s 2012 Red Hook Crit Brooklyn-winning Stanridge Speed track bike has seen some time on the NYC streets. Love this photo Dan, dead rat and all.

    Good thing the top tube has some tape on it for the drops he’s not using anymore.  Otherwise it might get scratched.  :P

      because swapping out handlebars on the fly is something noone ever does…

        That’s what I thought, but the sidewalk looked angle so I’m still trying to visually figure it out…..
