a theory on the pads

Well this clearly isn't a modern Mercier frame.
It's possible that this vintage Mercier is in really good condition and the owner wants to protect from scratches, dings etc.
Just a thoery.

Is this more of that clever fixed-wheel sub-culture us bike-riding from another generation types just don't get? Or is this just one massive pile of sick on two wheels? I vote the latter. All in favour(Canadian spelling)...Say a resounding Madre de Dio, che pezzo di Merda!
