^lol couple of month ago I saw a dude on such a 'bike on bike' just outside the city while driving with my family somewhere - it was dark, this bike thing was lighted up like a xmas tree, and while passing him (didn't know what it was till we got really close) I was wondering, how does he get on that thing, or stop or whatever... I gotta stay more focused next time and take a pic!

I know quite a number of roads where that kind of bike would be very useful. heck, if I still get to ride when I'm old and all, this is the kind of bike I'll be looking for :thumbup:

That's a RD-7800 paired to SRAM mechanical levers, it wouldn't shift that well anyway.

If it has Tesla written on it, maybe it is secretly a space ship?
