Why is it so difficult to buy an ordinary road bicycle nowadays?
I want to buy a bike.
An ordinary bike.
Not a sports bike.
Not a BMX bike.
Not a racing bike.
Not a mountain bike.
Not a folding bike.
Not a clowns bike with springs and suspension everywhere.
I want to buy an ordinary road or touring bike.
The sort that has 2 wheels, a couple of gears, handlebars that are higher than the seat, mudguards, and somewhere to fit lights.
I find it hard to believe that such bikes don’t exist anymore.
But I simply cannot find a shop that sells them.
Hear hear! I agree! I have searched and searched for the bicycle that you describe – you have to pay about £400 pounds sterling. In the end I just gave up and bought a vintage one. Much nicer too!
I hate most of the bicycles made now. They look horrible – I still think a narrow-tubed steel frame is nicest. I might be able to help you if you email me.

I’m wanting to buy an electric hybrid bicycle. looking at the Victory folding electric bike. anyone own one?
the whole product description is- Victory folding 6-speed 180W Power Assist 12″/16″ electric bicycle. it is sould through amazon but absolutely no customer reviews can be found anywhere. not asking much for the price, just wonering if it is a complete lemon.
I did not see the ad, but I can tell you 180 watts is nothing. we have a 750 watt limit here in the USA for a reason.
Europe has a 250 watt limit and everyone is complaining there.
I80 watts is too small, it borders on being a toy.
found the ad:
However, for the price, if you are a smaller person (under 150lbs) and will pedal a lot with it, it just might be OK.
I like e-folders, and want one. I have every kind of ebike in the shop, if I was not in the trade, I would be tempted by this. Oh and wasn’t 6′2″ and 230lbs.

If I did all those things that people think I was mentally ill? Will the plan?!?
Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Recently, I have become indifferent to me. So for me to care about me, that is, to my character, I'll turn into another. Therefore, this is the plan: 1: After the passage from England to Louisiana, I will buy a folding electric bicycle, transportational end. 2: With this bike, I will charge it up in a nearby outlet and headed to my next destination, Perkinston, Mississippi. 3: After the trip, I go to the Wal * Mart stores, buy cheap candy, and sell at prices Smalltown expensive in the Perkinston. To make me appear more friendly, I use a plastic face mask that resembles a Japanese fox, and give me a false name to be matter to children. I can be on rooftops for dramatic effect. Anyway, here are some problems: a) I have heard that in the South, people are very conservative and rejecting naivety. Is this true? B) People think I'm psychotic? C) Is the FAIL PLAN?!
I Find your great creativity and ingenuity! Go for it! You may need a little tweaking, but onwards! What do you care what people "think" I am impressed by the level of research and planning that have orchestrated, either in jest or earnest. How can you chose, Perkinston miss, of all places?
