I am a bit busy right now ( actually too tired after work) so there are not too many comments. Life doesn´t leve too much space for bike passion right now. I miss my bikes, and the time I used to have to care for them. There is only my commuter and at least the youtube video.

But no matter how they're setup, they're worthless for any serious riding. My Peugeot was set up as a single-speed when I bought it and even that was a pretty worthless ride, unfortunately. No gear high enough, no gear low enough.<BR/><BR/>Yeah that bamboo bike seems to use some kind of composite, either fiberglass or carbon fiber. I'm guessing fiberglass, but it's painted black so hard to say.K Matthiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10302994067650991669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429507979098695847.post-37217096981007496362007-11-21T16:20:00.000-08:002007-11-21T16:20:00.000-08:00Great coverage!... until you blaspheme fixed gear ...Great coverage!... until you blaspheme fixed gear bikes. While they are incredibly irrational, they certainly do look much better than functional bikes. Did you see what the bamboo bike used for all of its joint sections?Mr. Jeffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06142513435202298779noreply@blogger.com
