Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I made the comment about the potholes, because I've never owned a sub 15 lb bike. It seems to me that there is a point of diminishing returns to losing weight, and the trade-off would be a loss of durability. However, I don't know so I asked you since you own just such a bike. My question was: "If you hit a pothole would the bike shatter"? I never implied you don't watch where you're going, or that you ride in potholes. I simply asked a rhetoric question. Yet your response to me was sarcastic.

I'm entitled to make jokes at your expense, when you walk around with a chip on your shoulder!
