Ikea's Sladda bicycle
01/18/17 at 06:48:16

Came across an article that Ikea starting selling their bike in the US now. It's certainly not for everyone and not much of a "looker". I thought I would bring it up because it's a pretty cool concept and the trailer makes it a cool cargo bike.

It's about $400. Aluminum frame with 2 coats of "lacquer" (?) and weighs 33 pounds. Front disc brake. BELT DRIVE!!
25 year warranty on the frame and 10 year warranty on the belt drive.
That's already a really good deal.
They sell a sweet trailer to be pulled behind the bike for $130.
Check it out: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30326728/

Naw, make the wife pedal, you hang in the back with a 6 pack. Every once in a while give the rat a squeeze so it'll bark and motivate the significant other.

Tranny's are wolfs in sheep's clothing, but still looking for a wolf.
