Excellent necklace, excellent eclectic non-bag matching! I had an huge tray-type rack on the back of my old Civic to carry a recumbent. Loading it was ok, but folding it forward when no bike was on it was quite a workout. That sucker was heavy! -- You received this message because you are subs

I didn't realize how long the top tube is on the smallest Clem. It seems like with an effective tt length of 575 the Boscos would be fine if I went that way. I would love to go with the Bosco Moose but it looks like the stem height is limited. Although the photo I linked to earlier shows a lo

Igor How many bikes does that make in the last year? Bikes that you have either bought sold tried to sell bought and sold By my rough count, it's got to be at least a dozen since last July. You are on fire with the buying and selling. You seem to be on a determined quest for something, and
