Don't just ride a bike, KNOW how a bike works
I'm disgusted with folks who want to have a bike and not do what it takes to keep it on the road. I'm fed up with folks who plead they don't have a lot to spend, buy an older bike because it's so much cheaper, and then a month later bemoan that it won't start, without trying to learn what's wrong or...

Re: Cruiser Saddle bags & bracket help!!!!!!!

(You just tie a cord from the bag to the bar to kee...
