Bikes: 1977 Bridgestone Kabuki Super Speed; 1979 Raleigh Professional; 1983 Raleigh Rapide mixte; 1974 Peugeot UO-8; 1993 Univega Activa Trail; 1972 Raleigh Sports; 1967 Phillips; 1981 Schwinn World Tourist; 1976 Schwinn LeTour mixte; 1964 Western Flyer

Well, I can't see the article (school firewalls), but my UO-8 is probably near the bottom, and my Professional, while not technically a 10 speed, is probably near the top, I'd guess...

ETA, I don't hold much with Consumer Reports anyway. The same people who rate toasters rate vehicles. In '83, they said that the Jeep CJ has a bad propensity to roll...yeah, if you try to slalom like a corvette. Idiots.
