following up a hot story dropped many moons ago on this very blog...the demographic bike is now oh-so-hot in Seattle right now (Spring fashion time '06).
the key ingedients are a RACER frame, preferably VINTAGE and only ONE SINGLE speed can be available to the rider (if u're really cool then there should be no brake either). THe rider should not wear a helmet and should definitley be from one of the hipper demographics (21-29 - sorry old folks).
Economical and sporty perhaps but I think there is a TOPOGRAPHICAL error being made - NAMELY HILLS^^^^ and 2nd also a BIOLOGICAL error - namely the tendency of the body to get tired or slowed down by fatigue, wind, alcoholic beverages, etc .....a simple equation called the GEAR RATIO can solve these for U. GEN Y: Y must you deny it???? Are you just going for a spin around the block or can you access all parts of the city at all times of day like kojak does on his 10 speeed? also i doubt the economical aspect cuz most yard sale bikes already have 10 speed or at least 3
...to the hardcore who need a challenge, I suggest you try this:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~SK8~~~~~~~~~~~00
rocky and I did for a bit before we dropped the hard-core image for more sensible transport. but when you sk8 you transcend challenges to a greater extent than the demographic bike.
kojak (tru to the 10 speed)
