Components- I think I will just use this nice Nuevo Record rear derailleur for a while.
Wheels- I will just appropriate this wheel with the Record hubs and Mavic rims.
Bicycle-This Trek will take me to the beach today.
I would love to read of any individual or group advocating this kind of community property. A few years ago, Austin's bicycle co-op, the Yellow Bike Project, spread ugly yellow painted old bikes around town as community property. They eventually had to discontinue this program. The ugly yellow bicycle shaped objects were all stolen.
LOL. You in Texas? OK, well, in the Judeo-Christian world it probably began with that Jesus guy. Lots of quotes you can look at, like: “And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need” ..gospel of Luke I believe...
Lots of churches were you live I suspect. Have at 'em.
