Those little baby wheels need a big chainring because they rotate so much faster

So that is equivalent to a less ridiculous chainring on a 700c bike

This looks like 20" geared for track pursuit?

Also clearly the bike is custom made look at all that welded shit

That's how I got all my bikes set up. Right front, left rear. The only silly things is rear brake instead of front. If you only have one, it should definitely be in front.

Uhh, m80, what "motorcycle" do you have that has the rear brake on the left lever?
>>
>>928895
His point was that the front brake goes on the right, that leaves the left for the rear (because bicycles don't have foot brakes). Also some motorbikes do have hand operated rear brakes such as scooters and those are on the left.
>>
>>928905
>His point was that the front brake goes on the right, that leaves the left for the rear (because bicycles don't have foot brakes).
And if you don't have a right brake it has nothing to do with motorcycles at all.

But the owner may have other bikes with a right brake or even a motorcycle. It's common practice that front is right and rear is left and there's little reason to do it otherwise.

>Ahahahaha faggot rides a scooter.
Still a motorbike.

>>928908
It's not that upright, not far off the seating position of most sport bikes. Cat Woman's positioning is quite impractical, it doesn't look like her arse is even on the seat which is probably due to it being designed for a taller rider.

Also, it's been a while since I watched the film but don't the handle bars pivot forward?

Maybe you should just admit you live in ass backwards carlandia where people drive on the wrong side of the road and people put their brakes on the wrong side as well.
>>
>>928918
>i own a motorcycle guys really
I actually do, a pitbike with the clutch on the left. I don't get why you're so convinced that I own a scooter, just because I mentioned them as a rebuttal to your argument.

>you live in ass backwards carlandia where people drive on the wrong side of the road and people put their brakes on the wrong side as well.
No idea what you're getting at here. Brake lever orientation is generally the same for bicycles all over the world (most people are right handed = right hand is more dexterous, front brake is the most important especially when it comes to modulation). When it comes to motorcycles the vast majority have the front brake on the right, they don't switch them over just because they're being sold in another country. There were very few bikes in the past that had switched levers for some reason and even fewer today.
>>
>>928928
Because putting your rear brake on the left has nothing to do with motorcycles.

>he never a britbong motorbike

>>928929
>Because putting your rear brake on the left has nothing to do with motorcycles.
Yes it does. Practically all motorcycles have the front brake on the right and it makes sense to do the same with bicycles, thus that leaves the rear brake to go on the left.

>he never a britbong motorbike
I am British, both our motorcycles and bicycles have the front brake on the right just like most other countries.

No, I seriously doubt you've ridden a British motorcycle, on the off chance that you have, it was a newer British motorcycle designed for export, and not made in britland.
>>
>>930190
Motorcycle = right front brake = bicycle right front brake = bicycle left rear brake

>I seriously doubt you've ridden a British motorcycle
I haven't, but the way you're talking I doubt you have either. There are very few British manufacturers around, especially the big brands. A few of the smaller brands that still make classic bikes may have the switched controls, I don't care enough to check as they're not really relevant.

By "British motorcycles" I assumed you meant motorcycles made for and used in Britain, implying any manufacturer would bother switching the controls for us even when the vast majority of the bikes over here have the same layout as the rest of the world.

don't be so judgy. I'm 6'3"/150 lbs. my hands, like the rest of me, are extremely long and thin. to grip standard bars, I have to clench more, which is fatiguing, and the fingertips double over into the palms. I ride with three layers of tape and if actually fits me properly.
