So is this the most amount of spacers you've seen under a stem?

Masochism or fetish?

heck that IF still can get the bars an inch higher. This must be the 56cm bike borrowed by Too Tall.

I don't have pictures but an older guy I ride with sometimes has a double stack of stem risers.

I would seriously watch how many spacers are used. The strength of fork with that amount of leverage (caused by length) is something to check with the fork and frame manufacturer.

That bike is currently on eBay.
I thought about buying it just to de-circus clown it.

They don't make cranks that make the most of those legs.

Those are common here; 70something guys who were convinced to buy Tarmacs..

Pretty scary IMHO..

The color is Absinthe Green I am not sure of the PPG number. I saw another bike painted this color recently and it is an amazing color in person. Someone had an IF Crown Jewel listed recently in this color and I think it has the PPG# shown for those interested...

On a bike that didn't fit the owner? ......pretty much.

Why the cable hanger in the HS spacer stack, I wonder?

the bike used to have a front v-brake, but was recently switched over to the front disc, the owner hasn't gotten around to removing the hanger.
