What the Hey?

GM (yes the car company) is buying Specialized bikes.

Go here for the surreal story.

Tell me this is an April Fools joke.

Please.

Hi John -still thinking about a Pugsley? Not yet logged in, so couldn't post to the forum, but this poped up on SLC CL:

Kind-of 1/2-a***d, literally, as its a 1x1 with a Pugsley fork.

BTW, I've enjoyed reading your posts while I should have been dissertating...

Cheers- R

Cool bike. I like that idea and it has gears too. Seems like a smart set of hacks the guy made. I wonder what hardware he's using for "Three cogs on the SS hub." A dingle on one side and a single on the other? Enquiring minds...
Disertate man!

Defending in 3 weeks -would have been done in Jan if you'd not put me onto the dang iBOB list. Now I'm planning a porteur rack building project to celebrate the renewal of 'free time'...
