One star road bike review on Bike Radar

[Baron Blubba]

You don't see these very often.

I'm curious: Are there any examples of a crowd-funded performance bike that came even close to making good on its promises, or was even close to being competitive in its price range?

I'm tempted to comment on the aesthetics of the bike in the BikeRadar story above, but whoever designed it might have a wife, kids, or parents who will Google its name and find this very thread, and I don't want them to read such unkind things about their loved one's artistic creation. So I'm going to keep mum.

The poor spec choices speak for themselves, though.
