I could pay £95 for this, but.

An interesting bit from the Guardian about bike fitting, though I think I've done a lot of the same stuff just stopping by the side of the road with a 5 mm. hex key. Doesn't everyone?

Still, good point that adjusting the bike you have, rather than changing bits out, can do a lot for fit.

They look cute for around town or going to work, but I don't think I'd want to be out in 'em in the rain -- though the same thing in a washable wool, I'd probably wear all the time (indeed, this is the "problem" with the wool jerseys I got for Christmas this year, they're supposed to be for cycling and yet I keep wearing them everywhere else, too. No, they haven't got butt-pockets, I'm not quite that big of a dork).

Yeah, the big hinge on the Dahons always looks wockety to me, at least in the units I've seen. I look at them and think, well, for a little more you could be on a Friday, wouldn't that be better? But then, a lot of why we have a Friday is that the tandem has a very, very low stepover height, and my daughter is really short for her age.
