Paleo-MTB in Norway
Someone over on MTBR, grousing about equestrians being "grandfathered" into wilderness areas, posted this photo. (If they all can agree on the provenance I'll post back about it.) Check these bikes out! Fixies with very low gears, hub brakes, slack angles, highway pegs, lots of luggage. The bike in the middle has a cable frame and a curved seat tube.

I don't see any "hub brakes" in the photo. The coaster brake had not yet been invented.
