Hi,

I'm looking for alternative bicycle designs -- things that actually
affect the ride and handling. Below is a list of links to various
alternative designs -- I'd appreciate knowing of any ones I forgot.

Also, any comment on particular designs, etc... will be appreciated.
Finally, I'd love knowing of good shops in the Houston, TX area that
can accomodate some of this.
