I don't agree with the poster you are quoting as far as his general analysis of what a Fred will or will not do. I personally love aero bars and clipless peddles but they are not for everyone. Both take practice to become comfortable with. I find when people can't get over their fear of things they tend to generalize that they are unnecessary and make broad statements like any real pro would never use them. I wouldn't take any offence to such a statement, it is nothing more than someone's opinion

No, I've studied the matter extensively and can say with some authority that Freds don't use aerobars.

Seriously? 2% on a nice day in summer? My opinion of Portland just dropped substantially.

And yet, there was a picture of an aerobar with a light mounted on it. Are we to suppose that a passing Fred vandalized a tri-athlete's bike in this way?

Lest I seem to be just picking on low-end bikes, here's a shot of a Long Haul Trucker I snapped this morning in the same parking area.

I think it sets a new standard, to say nothing of the Fredly number of accessories. Then there's this: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7008/6...cd489db7_z.jpg I'm fairly certain that this bike belongs to local artist/engineer Mark Allyn. I always enjoy seeing his work. |
