    Ubersnob, that despite not shaving legs, not using chamois cream, putting on whatever socks are handy, and calling bidons water bottles!

    Bikeradar need to understand the rules better methinks!

    Some snob tendencies.... I'm getting there :)

    "You might not have started matching socks and caps to every outfit, but you're on your way to snobbish cycling nirvana. Keep working on your tan-line, you'll be a snob soon!"

    Titanium and drinks from ring pulls.

    Though being an ubersnob I'm going to only buy craft beer in titanium cans from now on.

    "Some snobbish tendencies"

    You might not have started matching socks and caps to every outfit, but you're on your way to snobbish cycling nirvana. Keep working on your tan-line, you'll be a snob soon!

    pretty proud of myself actually


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 942 ✭✭✭outfox


    Repeating to myself 'uber snob, please, please', with eyes closed and fingers crossed.

    Then result is calculated: anti-snob.
    Balls. Really wanted uber snob.
    I don't trust their quiz at all.

    Uber Snob! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,559 ✭✭✭The tax man


    Uber snob. Chapeau me.:cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,125 ✭✭✭daragh_


    Uber Snob

    Which can't be right as I have a Shimano groupset on an Italian bike and obviously have no self respect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 200 ✭✭Crippens1


    Anti-snpb as expected; but I did agree that Italian bikes are works of art but that's just a fact and not an opinion.

    I'm so snobbish I pandered to the Italian fanboys from my ultra unique Basque bike whilst sipping a nice tempranillo. Italian stuff is mainstream, but I don't look down on it too much as it keeps the rose tinted canyon mob at bay.

    Anti snob and proud of it :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭longshanks


    Uber Snob.

    You're the creme-de-la-creme of bike snobbery. Chapeau. Your next purchase is a full collection of David Millar's Chpt. III kit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭Mec-a-nic


    Anti snob - I must have, sniff, grown up and matured somewhere along the way...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 503 ✭✭✭davidsatelle100


    Anti-snob

    Don't know if that's a good or bad thing

    Alas poor mockler has not been online for a while, but some of us stick around just to pick our moments to remind Jep .....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,386 ✭✭✭lennymc


    im also an uber snob. I wonder can we get a group discount on that David Miller kit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭Eamonnator


    I took the test again, trying not to be a snob.
    Still an über snob.
    Must be true.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,386 ✭✭✭lennymc


    If asked, I, would have said, you were an über snob.

    I'm a bit put off by the fact there are so many uber snobs, would have thought I was a cut above....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,931 ✭✭✭letape


    Über snob - just confirmed what I knew! Italian steel bikes and oakleys for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,565 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 197 ✭✭Corker1


    Not a snob - middle ground I suppose. Though I have loads of caps, love itallian bikes & espresso but only shave my legs when cycling in Continental Europe ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,813 ✭✭✭✭Wanderer78


    anti snob and if there were answers to suit my true opinion, id say anti anti snob. hell yea! get on your bike and shut the f*ck up, oh and mirrors are for women!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,509 ✭✭✭✭DirkVoodoo


    Uber snob, thank god...I couldn't imagine being anything else!

    I wish they had expanded the reflection inspection to include: All shop windows, bus shelters, passing buses, the back of buses (for the head on camera view).
