glad you made it back ok though. yeah one leg cycling is not that fun really. ha ha

They are common in folding bikes, 'cause they fold up and get out of the way.

The SwissBike is a folding hardtail mountain bike.

I have ordered a set of DMR V8s from PricePoint. Now I need to remove some of the studs or wear shin guards or both. The new FSRxc doesn't fold and I can carry it in the van with fixed pedals. It rides on the left side, lashed to the air mattresses.
