bikes..pro or cons
First let me say that I'm glad that your happy with your landrider and arent just using it for garage decorations. But let me explain the reason for the negative comments. The comments come from experience, perhaps not first hand experience but experience just the same. I have ridden enough bikes over the years to know what features are important and which are just pure marketing hype. Shifting is not a big problem on todays average bike and adding a auto-shifting derailer is just another thing that will eventually need adjusting/fixing.Originally posted by Filmboard
There seems to be an incredible amount of knee-jerk animosity for the Landrider on bicycling enthusiast forums like this one. Oddly, it doesn't seem to come from first hand experience with this bike. I'll agree that it may be possible to find a better bike for the same or less money at a good bike shop. But, you know, we don't have a good bike shop in my community, and what Sears and Walmart have to offer here is pathetic. I have a Landrider, have used it daily since I got it, it holds up, it's a fun ride, I can adjust the cadence anywhere from about 35 RPM to not quite 70 RPM. .............
I'm a video professional and a digital photography enthusiast, and if you posed a question about any number of television sets, camcorders or digital cameras that I'm sure many of you have, I find it difficult to imagine many of my peers giving you the verbal finger like I see here in this and other bicycle enthusiast forums...........

As to the auto-zoom feature (I bet you thought they don't exist, Dan, but they do). If the feature sounds good to you, and you can afford it, go for it. ..........

Dan, I feel I've made my point. If you don't agree, then I won't labor over this issue. Thanks for your response.
