Everytime I see a person on a Seven he is:
1) fat
2) old
3) wearing a helmet visor
4) fat, old and wearing visor.

It seems that way, for guys at least. But at least two or three of
the best six or eight women riders in my town ride Sevens so I don't
think the "rule" holds on the female side.

No. Computers are for Feds, and messageboards are even more Fredly.

In your town? Don't you live in the largest city in the United States? JT,

I've seen the best thing (San Franciso). I was talking to one woman last week who
was riding a 7, and she said she'd been having back problems, and just decided to solve
the fit problem the most direct way, which was to get a custom bike, which she loves.
Of course, there's other custom options, even locally (Sycip, Steelman, Rex, others).

Some people have a build that just won't cooperate with a stock frame, no
matter how much fiddling with components is done.

Those are all very good bikes, but I'm partial to Sycip. I was his first
paying customer.

Women can't be Freds - and that's not merely because Fred is a male
name.

Dumbass,

You've stumbled upon the truth behind why all these women
are riding Sevens. It's to encourage Connelly to talk to them.

It's a great theory, it just needs a little more work
