It’s worth stating that after a year or two I swore I’d never ride this bike again, after one too many headers, and everyone who rode it after that also got hurt. This is what caused me to develop the much friendlier pennyfakething.
Oh yeah and the name comes from the fact that it looks like somebody just tossed a bunch of pipes on the ground and welded them together the way they fell.
