I made the mistake of putting Newbaums on my Cliffhanger rims, riding them
for a year and then deciding to switch them to tubeless. Newbaums is
evidently *not* meant to come off. It left a ton of residue that I have yet
to find a good solvent for. Have tried rubbing alcohol, acetone, and going
Thanks for the hilarious story!
My only suggestion is to get yourself a bike-geek friend who preferably
lives close by. Down the block is best, although good* bike-geeks are
somewhat rare, and you may not be so lucky. Anyway, I know this is the way
to go because I'm such a bike-geek to some of

accessories too (Brooks saddles, dynohubs, etc...). If you have no interest

downhill, sailing onto campus in lovely spring weather. Masses of parents and
children, half-awake and somber are making their way to the school grounds. On
the last leg of the ride, you apply your brakes and

I saw a man the other day portaging a bicycle as a backpack while riding
another. The portaged bike looked a lot smaller than his other bike, so maybe
his child's. He had the bike arranged with the wheels off and strapped flush to
the frame. It appeared completely stable.
It inspired me to
It's tricky, but I've bungeed front wheels alongside my rear rack. Two
connections on the front of the wheel and one to the towed bike's fork. Get it
right and it's a trailer (not for riders though)

Y'all make good points about the flat, she shouldn't be waiting 'til Thursday

I have seen such thing in my neighborhood park once! Not sure if it was
the same brand, however. I wish I had known about it before I bought the
kid trailer.
Sometimes we want to take the kid to the park for biking there with his
friend. The roads along the way are a bit busy. It would

Goodness, that was 15 years back

I think it was 52 or so days on the road and during that time I only had one

I agree with Ryan.

The other very easy solution is to buy a Brompton (or Tern or probably any
other folding bike) that will take little room in the garage and magically
seems to adjust to fit any size rider quite nicely. Then you are always
