If you have those, you can be out riding in weather that would have
kept you indoors before. I remember when I used to think 50 degrees

True enough. Something I have too often seen people do in a way that risks *my*

I should think riding in the dark without lighting would easily lead

If I remember correctly, the folks at Hiawatha Cyclery who sold me a SON hub
designed for a smaller wheel (which I built up with a 700c rim) told me that
the difference was not the maximum power output but the minimum speed needed to
reach that output. It's all based on German law, which require

Beautiful!
Until I realized that I'm having issues with drops (and have stopped
riding them for the time being), I used stem shifters almost

I like stem shifters. I installed an older set on my Bleriot. They are readily
