It might not do it for you but this brought a genuine smile to my face (quite rare). I imagine most of us take riding a bike a little too much for granted and maybe even forget the real feeling of freedom / independence that it can provide.

Well said! Thanks for posting that; made me smile too

Superb :)

Chains a bit slack on that singlespeed

That's a thumbs up from me too, superb.

Good article
My mate Phil has an almost identical handlebar to the third picture.
He has both gear shifters on one side.
It's on his full suss with 150mm front forks !
I hate it when he beats me downhill
