BE SURE TO CARRY SPARE BOB TUBES!
Actually the greatest invention in recent bicycle history is the threadless head set followed closely by external bearing cranksets but ... how is locking your trailer to a tree and riding your bike into town any different from taking the panniers off your bike and riding your bike into town? Or do you just not like the look of touring bikes?
