& gearing, I guess not a lot tbh.

Can you imagine the fun/trouble you could get into commuting with one of them to work

HA ha ! I could just imagine the sort of mess I could get in with that, on one of those inland gusty days when it goes from force F.all to force 6 and back all within 20 seconds. Biggest most painful accident I ever had was windsurfing, but, that was just the once, compared to the myriad of offs I've had on the bike through total technical ineptitude .
