Tjaba!
So.. From stock bmx's & mtb's inc. A Marin Monocoque that got stolen, to a poorly fitted road bike with DT shifters that made me stop riding bikes - to a Fairdale UK Coaster that made love cycling again!
Currently building a Velo Orange Piolet after selling (but first buying) a horribel "hybrid".
If it wasn't for that POS though I wouldn't have spent 100's of hours the last 10 months reading about bikes. How weird, incompatible, stupid and non-user friendly the world of bicycle is, if, you want change something like a handlebar.
On the other hand I wouldn' t know how beautiful, intriguing, friendly and fun it is if you go down that path!
