Have to keep it cool and imagine the beer froth after the froth. Could catch on. Maybe Camelbak need to get involved.

Might be a good spot for a nitrogen cooled cocktail mix. All that shaking could have you pouring out some really well infused drinks.

No! A real thinking man would fill it with a bit of water and hash smoke and turn it into a traveling hookah.

I put this up a few weeks ago. Nukeproof didn't like me putting it on Vital. They claimed they were incorrect renders etc etc. Then admitted it was a poor excuse to deny the images weren't correct

Good idea but pretty much a gimmick. How many times have you burped a proper tubeless? Especially to the point of needing to re-bead it. I've only needed a pump once in the last 5 years on tubeless. Didn't have one, but still made it home 8km on about half normal pressure.

Seat tube looks to be cut down a lot lower than modern convention. Though this may just be a small frame.
