Even that has its place. Where I live, a lot of people (including,
sometimes, my wife) use bikes to exercise sled and skijor dogs in the
summer. It's called bikejoring. The dog (sometimes two, usuall
I'm 5'11", I ordered a 54 Hunq, and I'm going to put drops on it.
Once I have it, I'll post pictures and take measurements if you like.

I would buy some to try. They would have to prove durable for me to
keep buying them, but I'd definitely try at least a set.

Metal fenders can creak. If you have direct fender/frame contact
(probably between the chainstays), try using a strip of handlebar tape
to separate the contact points. I had a creak that was driving me
crazy, and this took care of it.

Thanks for the offer, Dave. What's your advice for getting safe

I have a 59cm bike with a 7cm stem on it. It handles beautifully. If
a shorter stem might make you more comfortable, try it.

I think it's a waste of energy to get upset about something like
this. First, it's a bicycle. Bicycles are fun. Second, if you're
upset about it, give it a few days and see if you still feel the same
way. It's going to be a nice bike.

I like the looks, too, which is relief because I pre-ordered a 54 last
week. I'm looking forward to seeing the blue and the orange panels,
but I might be sold on the red already. Rugged good looks.
No opinion on the lug lining. I think it looks nice, but it might
look even better without it. I
