I agree with you, which is why my last post said he was going on my ignore list, I'm done and want to get back on topic (broadly defined).
I see a lot of people who ride around on department store bikes and they seem to be enjoying it or at least getting to work ok.. I think part of the problem with BF is people who do this will feel intimidated from posting because of the inevitable "no one should" posts that will follow.
So, I'm kind of hoping that people who actually do buy and use department store bikes successfully will explain how they do it and what has worked for them. Judging from your list of bikes, it doesn't appear to be you, but if you do know someone, let's encourage them to post.
Thanks!
