1. no cage for bottle so unless you are a camel about 1/2 the most.
2. the handlebars have no plugs which is illegal to race with.

4. the chainrings of course cannot take a sprint or any heavy load.

he could easily go with one brake caliper and downtube shifters instead. i applaud his achievement.

no he doesn't need a kickstand at starbucks just hang it on the coat rack.
