    Interestingly, Jef Mallett will be at the Seattle Bike Expo in a week or so:

    My mom's a Frazz fan- I wonder if she gets the bicycle references.

    That's funny? Mildly amusing at best.

    Now THIS is funny: rathergood.commoon song

    It might make you want to buy a sub sandwich.

    Only a Real Fred [TM] would ride in the 53/19 gear.

    I couldn't even make it that far. There is a fine line between absurdity and comedy. That one
    doesn't even come close to that line, and it doesn't land on the side of comedy.

    He might have a wide-range cassette.

    I'll let Julio Perez Cuapio know that he's a Real Fred (TM). I'm sure it'll sting coming from you.

    I don't get it. 53/19 is a great climbing gear for 4-5% grades. Either that or 53/21.

    If one were using a typical double crank (53T/39T) and a 9-speed "corncob" cassette [1], 53/19 would
    be a cross-gear combination. Real Cyclists [TM] do not ride in cross-gear combinations.

    [1] Only a Real Fred [TM] would need anything more unless the grades are extremely steep.

    Only Real Freds [TM] use wide range cassettes - just ask Fabrizio Mazzoleni. 😉
