It's a condemnation of Landrider, which is an overpriced, low-quality, ill-conceived solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Any decent bike shop can sell you a better bike for less money. RichC |

For example; * They claim that shifting gears is confusing on regular bikes. * They claim the Land Rider is faster than a 21 speed bike because you arn't wasting time shifting. * They claim to be safer since your not focused on shifting and can focus better on the road. Come on, those are way exagerated or all out false claims. Shifting isn't really a big issue, and this is more of a gimick than anything else. Stick with a regular bike, they are much more reliable and better quality. Dan. -- |
