The Rides




These are what I got so far.


Specialized Hardrock mtn bike from when I was in jr high. It's still up and running, but it definitely needs a tune-up and the gears need fixing.

Diamondback Viper X bmx bike, for doing fun things. Just a starter bike, really. I'll be adding parts as I go along, and the more I need to, I'll upgrade. So if I get really into it, I'll have a bike that will eat this one alive. But as it is, don't have the ca$h to dedicate to that right now.

Komda Compact folding bike (that's what the tag said, even though the frame says Infinity). This is the dilly that I keep in the trunk for when I feel like riding or don't feel like walking. Fun toy, but not for anything serious.


Maybe I'll take a better picture later when there's more light instead of in my garage at night, but maybe I don't care enough to. Ha.



[update]

here's a somewhat better look at the viper x:

What is it about the ride of the Komda/Infininty folding bike that makes it a toy? I've ridden a variety of folding bikes but am not familiar with your model.

I keep a Giatex in my trunk and it comes in very handy at times, like when I'm visiting the French Quarter but don't want to pay to park. It has 6 speeds and basically rides like a standard sized bike but I don't need a bike rack to transport it.

i guess because i don't really use it for anything besides toying around in parking lots or around the block to kill time when i feel like it. parking isn't as bad of a crunch where i am, so i don't really ever have to use it for transportation, just for shits.
