how come in every forum i ever go to there's the "wise" memebers who know everything (they wish) and everything they say must be gold cause they said it. let people dream of what they want, its their dream or their idea of whats cool. so he put hookworms on a bike that doesn't need em, maybe his riding situation constituted needing them, why does the "wise" one always jump to conclusions. so what if hes a poser, hes a happy poser, some people just don't know. I think its a nice bike, nicolai is a solid brand. Let people be, it takes less effort to ignore stupidity than to spend it on pointing out the obvious.
