Just scored a pamir hypercracker for $1
 

Won an ebay auction for a nos pamir engineering hypercracker, no other bidders, didn't get shilled. 1+5 (sh) usd.

I should go look for a flickstand now...

The flickstand is really a nice part. The problem is that they only work on bikes without front fenders and anyone that owns a touring bike these days should have fenders on it.

Riding in the rain with fenders and a rain cape is really the way to go. You stay mostly dry and don't get soaked by sweat inside your own personal sauna.
