All racing bikes must now come with gimpy front wheels...for the children. |

Next, add accelerometers and crush zones for detecting frontal impact, and an air bag that deploys from the top of the head stem. JS. |

I will respond by not answering your question because I think you are fishing - poorly I might add. I fart in your general direction. JS. |

Managed that move last fall but rolled oer the bar, landing on my
shoulder and side not collarbone. The arm was tucked in aside the impact area. Thought I cracked a rib but not. Rolling from jump over the horse games in HS gym class. Way to go Sabatini ! |

James: Perhaps you're unaware that the UCI already has testing requirements for both frames and wheels, and it's not just whether they will fail, but the manner of the failure that they're paying attention to. --Mike-- Chain Reaction Bicycles www.ChainReactionBicycles.com |

He would have died like everybody used to do willy nilly back in the 70s while riding their turkey wing drop bars DUI style. Corpses everywhere, the disco era was overrated. |
