That's ridiculous. Even a kid like you must surely have heard of the saying "never say never." What makes you think that you are clairvoyant enough to say that you won't try a bent when you are 22 or 32 or 42, etc.?

Bents are kinda fun. They're no substitute for a real bike, but it's a blast going 20% faster, thanks to an aero position.

Sam Whittingham, the fastest human on two wheels, is an old mountain biker who just so happens to enjoy setting human powered vehicle (HPV) world records.
