I bet there were people who were satisfied with steel rims, but a safety upgrade goes a long way.
Sure didn't seem that way to me. It seemed like the poster was saying they didn't see the benefit in upgrading from their already existing safety features to more expensive safety features. I am not sure how you equate that to going from 0 safety features to safety features.


I haven't used compressionless brake housing before. No experience with it, and I am actually interested in it. But at $25/foot, Ill hold off for now since the bike I would try it on has housing running along the top tube. It'd be over $100 to even try the housing out.
