No not for me! I had a look at the Stooge site and noticed this http://stoogecycles.co.uk/2018/07/10/ho ... e-horrors/
Looks nice but I'm not sure about that "tank tube".

Re: A New Stooge
Looks awful.
Enough to make a Gnome Puke..
Like the bastard love child of a Jones, and a Kona HUMUHUMU..
Have they got no ideas of their own?

My immediate reaction was, "That extra top tube is going to limit luggage choice."

Re: A New Stooge
Surely it allows you to fit two bags ... and two must obviously mean more space than one?My immediate reaction was, "That extra top tube is going to limit luggage choice."

Re: A New Stooge
I’m not sure of the practical reason for that secon tube. I understand the straight twin top tubes on the original, and really like them, but this one is lost on me, as is the Jones but not Jones other one.
Re: A New Stooge
I think they're worried about the welds joining the top tube to the seat tube, so an extra bit of bracing is required. Interesting solution to a problem?
