Thanks, Jack, No one brand of bike is most popular among messengers, but single-speed fixed gear bikes seem to be favoured right now. Some run with brakes, some not, some use drop handlebars, lately many use riser bars. Messengers like them due to low maintenence, better bad-weather traction and simplicity. I'm not planning on racing, so I won't be disappointed at all. ;-) cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
