Frame / Size / Year:
Spartan

Notes:

This is not my bike, but I go to whole foods near my place and see this bike occasionally. Finally had a chance to snap some photos. IF you are the owner and you see this, your bike is fucking ill and I've been admiring it for months. But not to worry I have my own bikes :-). I had a sparton frame but the geometry was too compact for me so I got rid of it.

People who friended this bike arthurwoo, mafffoster

so you're the owner! nice build man. i used to go to whole foods all the time and saw it sitting there. it's the only other sparton i've seen on the street besides the one i used to ride. had to chuck it, the frame geometry didn't fit me well.

don't these things have 71/72-ht/st angles?? that's wayy more lax than even a kilo tt. it's almost like old school schwinn road geometry. almost embarassing for the manufacturers of a lugged "track" bike.

i picked one of these things up when i knew nothing about cycling; needless to say more than one mechanic made a comment about the build quality, etc. they have a wide variety of colors though for extra hipster points
