It looks like you posted it at 11:55, which is close enough to the
noon cutoff as makes no never mind (to me, who didn't play, and isn't
handing out $20 credits).

It's definitely the bike I'll grab after the world ends, but to be
honest, the Dylan line just popped into my head before I posted.

I'm not sure if my answer was correct (i.e. was the inspiration for
the thread title). But after reading Grant's first post, wherein he
issued the challenge, I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have posted my
answer to the list. Oops! Sorry if I spoiled the contest.

This may go into the filed of failed fun experiments. Yes, Ian Dixon
was the poster who came up with it, but that's not the answer. Ian
knows the answer--where HE got it from.

No way, Ian! Take your $20 credit when you can get it! Even if it
just goes to 4 more rolls of Newbaums. From the look of the confusion
on this thread, Grant's not going to get 20 winners anyway. I sure
don't know, and neither does google (under my pathetic control, at
least).

Thanks, Paul. The fenders are Berthouds, 700x60mm. Had to trim the
rear fender to get it between the chainstays. Hoping the trimmed

For the record, I'm declaring myself ineligible for the contest.

Great looking bike! I like the grey/orange combination. The
Hunqapillar looks like an über-versatile bicycle.

Thanks! I ride a 58 or 59 road frame. The 54 Hunqapillar fits me
very well. I would not have been able to get a 58 to work for me with
drop bars. I think I could make the 54 work with any kind of bars,
but I wouldn't tour on anything but drops.

I would be between a 54 and a 58 Hunqa, so I was wondering what size
you are and how it fits. Thanks. Beautiful and tankish bike.

I've been patiently waiting for some good shots of the 54 Hunq. Thanks
for posting. Your bike looks awesome. I'm curious about the
orange,which I prefer, thought the Hunq was only coming in red. What
type and size tires are you using? They fit the bike well. Bill
