Forgot to post, as Ckucky and I were working on the FX’s on Saturday, saw HFD go up the street. Sure enough HFD 1 came buzzing by, although at a leisurly pace. They didn’t deploy anything and instead just touched down at the top, picked someone up, then flew to the park.

Chris and Root were at the shop and Chris discovered a 27.5″-wheeled bike. Chris found it more agile than a 29″, and noted that he could controllably wheelie it. He and I both noted that it was short-ish, but that was more a contemporary geometry thing. It definitely didn’t have as much of a toe-overlap issue as a 29″. Root said after riding it around that if nobody told him it wasn’t a 27.5″, he would have just thought it was a 26″, and really, when you look at it next to a 29″, that’s what it looks like.
So essentially, in reaction to the negatives and limitations of 29″, they came up with something that “undoes” those, and essentially ended back where they started. Unless you just want to have something new or different, what’s the point in getting the compromise when you can get either an industry-standard 26″ or 29″? I don’t think the 27.5″ was different enough from 26″ that you’d get any really noticable difference. Go all the way and get 29″ or stay with 26″.
Does everyone with a Genesis Coupe have something to prove? Guess what? I don’t care what the numbers say: Your car is still lame.
(0)Saw a different Genesis Coupe with what may have been some home market emblems and diecut announcing it’s “KDM” heritage. Oh, so it’s derivitive and two generations in technology behind everyone else?
(0)AKB48… Sayonara what? Huh? Even knowing the answer doesn’t make this one any more understandable. Huh?
(0)Loiterous gangsta striding redhead Euro trash barrel-bodied beer-gutted girl, get your blue moon boots out of the crosswalk so traffic can go!
(0)Metal plate across road – I go straight through: 4Runner behind me swerves fully into oncoming lane to avoid it. Pussy.
(1)Amuro Namie – another single: another fail. Has her range decreased to less than one octave? Sounds like she just isn’t trying anymore, like she’s talking over BGM.
