Going Big

To borrow a phrase from our fat tire breathren (I'll have to admit my snobbery here, as I love the dirt as much as the road and therefore have a specific bike for each...death to the Hybrid!), Go Big or Don't Go at All!

Since the Hincapie incident at Paris-Roubaix that's exactly what Trek Bicycles has been doing. As 53rd Tooth pointed out (again, the ironic coincidental reference), the best defense is sometimes a good offense. So far there has been no breakdown of the stem failure, but only ant marching (where's Dave Matthews when you need 'em) staffers drumming to the tune of "years of experience" and "safety records." (Check out the latest newsletter from Waterloo, above).
