    i LOVE the simplicity and design of this bike and would ride the shite out of it, but i just can't get over only having one gear. i don't get it. my dad's schwinn from 1979 has a 3 speed shifter built into a motorcycle type grip that's linked to a simple, elegant derailleur on the back hub. i'd really love to combine the both. i get it that it's supposed to be as simple as possible but man... do hipsters realize how utterly moronic they look walking their bikes up a hill that they can't climb?

    • You could easily throw a 3 speed internal hub on that bike and keep the clean look.MarleyMarl
    • shit not the back hub. i stopped typing 1/2 through and lost my train of thought. front derailleur.kona
    • for sure!kona
