Not the bike, the equipment. I was poking fun at the lazy/suicide brake levers and stem shifters, both of which were original equipment on mine. Mine has served me well also and is moving to FL with me.

On another topic; It seems big brother is watching. Earlier today I made a post offering two of my lovingly reconditioned bikes free to whoever could get here (VT) first. The post disappeared shortly after. Did I unknowingly violate a rule against giving things away on Bike Forums?
