So many questions.

I like the way the shot of the back end is blurry so you don't question what exactly is holding that back brake closed!

death.

That said it does have potential for a really challenging project. Start with that thing and turn it into a sensible bike.

Look closely at picture 7/7 and you’ll see that what looks like an innocent child’s bike is also a freak project.

I think, folks, that what we have here is the neighbour kid from Toy Story.

I’m tempted to place a bid. That’s the best (worst?) eBay special I’ve ever seen. How far do you reckon you’d get before it collapses?

I wouldn’t touch that with a barge pole...

...until someone writes ‘DMR MOTO’ all round the tyres, in tipex. Then I’ll have it, at any cost.

Oh it's killing me, I can't open Ebay at work and I love a good car crash bike.  Could someone post the pictures please?

I love the front dropouts that are designed to release the front wheel as soon as you hit a curb, thereby saving the zimmer frame (or is it crutches) chopper style front forks!

But also, 'bike-multitype'...have we just found the 'non-marketing speak' genre for the current crop of adventure/gravel/monstercross bikes?!

I like the way the bolts holding the front and rear of the bike haven't been cut to size.

Er, that'll be negative trail :S (Not sure why your smiley has come out that size...)

Wouldn't try riding it no hands.

That's a novel way to attach the rear triangle.
