Is there a good Shimano groupset that would go with that configuration?

Fully agree, I struggle to see the joke although I know the intention is a joke.

arh geez... how politically correct do we need to be these days?.. This
little boy is probably as happy as ever to have his picture taken with his
new play toy.. yet we impose our ideals of him actually having wheels to
ride it!? No doubt some volunteer will fix his steed, he will fall off,
then sue the volunteer for negligence..

I'm sure all these rock stars who have given up their 'precious time' in the
last week or so for that televised cause will have a significant impact on
poverty in the third world.. or maybe to help line the pockets of corrupt
governments..

cheers,

:ok, who took my happy pills away?:

I think you get it slightly wrong, do not really care about PC, just that the pic on its own makes me sad, and therefore I do not laugh. See what I mean? that is all.

Claes, sorry dude.. all good.. I did misinterpret your reply.... I'll get
off my high horse and think before I assume/speak 🙂

It is a real bugger that McEwen is out of the points though 🙁(((

Somebody please send that kid a new front tyre.
I'd love to send him a bike. I've got two here that my grandkids have grown
out of.
