Nothing will prevent mugging; Nothing will prevent mugging; I heard that in some places in South America people have to drive through red simply to avoid the muggers. I'll eventually have to go in cities, and might not be able to find out in advance which neighborhoods should be avoided, and...

A local friend is arranging A local friend is arranging to pick it up, then I'll still have to ship it over for $300, but I'm very happy and grateful! My bike is an extension of myself and I use it throughout the day almost every day, so I was literally heartbroken. I appreciate it very very...

So my bike got sold on ebay So my bike got sold on ebay for $350.. There was nothing I could do. I obtained the bike with my hard earned money; salaries aren't very high in Europe. It took me a year to decide to spend all that money on a bike, only because it was going to be my travel...

I made some panniers for my cruzbike style bike made from wrecks. The material is the thicker style of coroplast, commonly used for big "for sale" signs. It's held together by zip ties, guy lines and finished off with duct tape. The slightly rounded shape makes it very solid; you can actually...

A nice bonus that came up A nice bonus that came up with my bike is that the seat is low enough to jump over from the rear, and the shadecloth (mesh) I use is very slippery, so I can make some speed walking and then smoothly jump onto the bike with the right leg, having some momentum for an...

I forgot to stress how I forgot to stress how superior the general cruzbike design is in comfort, performance, control and luggage capacity. It will definitely remain my transportation of choice and I'll probably end up buying the Quest for it's folding ability. I saw one today in Brisbane; I'm...
