Too bad these things have an apparently indelible bad rap. They are pretty fun and convenient for curb-hopping type riding. We'll see where this goes, I just put these on as I had them around and was the cheapest option for testing the drop bar configuration on this frame. It remains to be seen whether this is a keeper - w/rack/basket, some smoother tires and fenders, it would be perfect for the urban riding in Japan but unfortunately it is here in the U.S.
