Revolutionary bike design
One of these was for sale on a local newsgroup (and the seller obviously
thinks a great deal of it $$), so I had to take a look. https://www.healthandbeautydirect.co.../products.html |

It has cranks, gears, chain, 2 wheels, seat, stem, and handlebars on a
frame. Why is this a "revolutionary" bike design? -- - Zilla Cary, NC (Remove XSPAM) "Gwood" wrote in message ... One of these was for sale on a local newsgroup (and the seller obviously thinks a great deal of it $$), so I had to take a look. https://www.healthandbeautydirect.co.../products.html |

I saw one of these autoshift bikes, it had some sort of belt connecting the derailer with the wheel, never did understand how it works, but if I remember correctly it didn't very well. |

The rear derailleur has a weight that makes it shift
instead of the 90s model with the weights on the wheel spokes. All for brain dead or brain less shifting. I'm home from work today and have to go work on that 3 speed Gazelle.Day off and its snowing so wrench time before Miller time. |

I should have specified that the "revolutionary" was part of the original
ad, not my personal take on things... "Zilla" wrote in message . .. It has cranks, gears, chain, 2 wheels, seat, stem, and handlebars on a frame.

"Weight: 33 lbs.
Fork: Steel Seat: Foam" Of course that is revolutionary. My bike has a foam fork and a steel seat. Doesn't yours? |
