It's not only the fact that he want big money for a knackered Apidura frame bag but that stack of spacers keeps making me chuckle! Looking at the wheels makes me miss the Burner I had in the 80's..

He's taking the piss - in fact he seems to have collected two bottle's worth already.

So it should be fine for its intended use then, phew!

That's not a big steerer tube. It's a short one with two extenders in 😯

Risky..

I wouldn't pay £50 for the whole bike, let alone a knackered bag.

Also, where the hell is the cable, zip tied along the downtube going?

I'm not sure whether it's ridiculous or [i]extremely[/i] audax. I think it may be audax though. 🙂

This surely has to be the winner so far, I think the aero bars really top it off -

That first bike looks like it is for a huuuuge person. If they really ride with the saddle that high.

It looks like in the OP they've pushed the saddle all the way forward because they are running a crazy long stem. This pitches the weight forward and on the hands so they've then lifted up the bars really high to shift the weight backwards again and take the weight off the hands. The frame might be a tad small too 😆

I wouldn't pay £50 for the whole bike, let alone a knackered bag.
Some nice stuff on that bike, the spacers alone are probably more than £50.

At least the OP bike bag has been used and bike ridden.

More than some of us. 😉

Makes me slightly upward pointing stem look positively slammed. So I'm all in favour

Jeremey isn't that slammed either. Not that it matters

Hmmm I wonder what all the cool kids are riding these days, and in just what sort of attire are they representing?

If one should seek an answer to such a question, who better to turn one's attention than Lewis Hamilton:

Yes multi-function accessorizing - it's frame bag, it's a shoulder-bag.
