So I was in the city this weekend and as I was crossing the street I was almost run over by this messenger guy who was traveling WAY to fast against traffic. Anyway, after cursing him under my breath and making sure I wasn't missing any appendages, I noticed something about the bike he was on: it had no gears!
What's up with this? Has the recession gotten so bad that we no longer can afford gears for our bicycles? I went home and did some research on the matter, and as it turns out these types of bikes are very popular (especially in my area). Who knew?
To break it down for you:
1. Bike
2. Cog (this is the "gear")
2. Chain
That's about it.
