I couldn't help but notice that the chainguard on my Schwinn looks like it would work just fine even if there were an extra mess of chain attached to it. So...
Hi Susan! Thanks for thinking of me! I have decided to sell my bike and buy an xtracycle but I still don't know if that means finding a decent bike and...
Believe it or not, I just saw your blog before I cam here - I found it googling "Quaker Dress" since our college is doing "Black History LIve" and they...
I have a Raleigh "girl bike" It's only a 7-speed cruiser but I do love it. My commute is only 3 miles each way and I had a very limited budget when I got it...
... You've gotten at the issue with chain guards: they're pretty easy to get (or put) on bikes that don't have a lot of gears. Lots of gears generally mean...
The one thing to keep in mind about cruisers or other hub-geared bikes with a Freeradical mounted on them is that the extra load can do in a hub gear fairly...
Though it's not yet on the site, we've just begun selling the Breezer Uptown SUB. It has an 8-speed internal Nexus and a chainguard, as well as front and rear...
Kipchoge, It's perfect! When will the details be available on the website? I've located a dealer within a reasonable distance and am planning a visit. My...
I didn't mean to dig on internal hub gears. Before my Nexus 7 failed, I loved it. (It is nice to be able to shift while stopped.) And I have heard that the N 8...
Okay, what do you mean by "head unit?" It sounds like it would pack *plenty* of noise by midwestern standards (even the critical mass is pretty dainty). My...
I do like them, tho' they are sort of pricey (but I suppose not much less than a half decent headlight). The batteries lasted from October to now, definitely...
Just heard from my other friend who returned them because they kept going on of their own volition, and the Hokey SPokes Folks sort of just didn't believe them...
My friend Anna has these: http://www.volcanicwheel.com/index.php?page=bikehome No-battery spoke lights that pretty much rock. And I think they're pretty cheap,...
There are TireFlys: http://store.tireflysonline.com/bicycles.html Haven't used them myself, but I've heard from others who have on the Commuting subforum of...
i LOVE my volcanic. http://www.volcanicwheel.com/index.php?page=bikehome put it on my road bike, and never ceases to create a stir on early morning group rides...
... A little while ago Treehugger featured (1) Reelights (2). These are now being imported by a new bike shop in Minneapolis: Hiawatha Cyclery (3). Some...
I've just checked with them and they say they only work on a rear wheel, so I figure not so good with a FreeRad as looks like it would be covered by the...
thats true, i have the volcanic on my road bike, not xtracycle. a mechanically inclined friend suggested possibly rigging it so that you use volcanic/motion...
I have x-mas lights on my xtracycle. Walmart sells battery powered light x-mas lights for a buck seventy-five around the holidays. A cheap, easy fix, and they...
They got these at places like Casey's (so probably at 7-11 in other parts of the planet) and department stores (I assume Wally WSorld, though I don't darken...
Welp, I just sent 'em a bit of a vent on their website (try figuring out how much they cost). I, too, have come up empty on batteriless lights. I'm mildly ...
I've got one - it's very big :-) I have to try to find its attachment now that I could put it on the seat post and not have the bag on my rack block it; in...
I bought a Bicycle Stereo <http://www.bicyclestereo.com/> a couple years ago, so I could play my iPod while on the New York Jewish Environmental Bike Ride,...
Hi I use my Snowboard helmet, which has built in headphones for an extra $15odd The headphones are flat and sit outside your ears, so sound can get in from...
Mine is pictured at http://www.dtovey.net/~dwight/Cycling_Stuff/TailLight_Comparison/ (I was wonderign why it would get into Treehugger, since it's not ...

I've sent a few folks to the site... the U of I triathletes had an indoor bike-a-thon (on spinners and bikes on trainers and anybody could come) Sunday to...
