no, they don't make you take off the wheels, but the quickest way between not allowed on the train, and allowed on the train with a handful of bikep parts, is a 15mm wrench.

edit: made for cycling is far from a free pass.. the list of stupid made for cycling items is really really long
Rejoinder: Functional and made for cycling is the issue here... you hate function, hence you're whining about it on the internet, hence this thread.

who is whining? im just throwing a thought out there to be discussed.. and beginning to understand the other side of the coin...like queerpunks situation..

i wish i hated function.. my house wouldnt be littered with different bikes and surfboards for different situations.

i do hate unneccessaries and overkill... which i have to admit i kinda lean towards with chain tugs.. and camelbacks

thass all brudda.. no need to get all pissy

I don't care... I happily hammer away on my fixed, wearing a camelback, feeling the love from all sides.
Yeah, if you're a Roadie the only camelback that's fashionable is the Race Vest that Bobby Julich wears(but only for time trials).

it's definitely going above 80, so the gauge is probably broken. i got it from a repair shop that sells a lot of used ****, i'll see if they'll let me exchange it.

Sorry man. Tried to come across as 'gently with a stick' funny, it came out wrong.

I just like to have a bit of fun with sentiments that tend towards a bit *too* retro around here.
