    Woke strikes again. Any bets on how long they're on the market?

    There's a subset of "creative types" who think they're brilliant when
    they deliberately offend people. They're idiots.

    Wow, lotsa popups...had to close the window, but I guess I got the gist of it.

    Is it because it's now cool to be mean to each other? I don't think I'll buy anything marketed to me with an "FU".

    Looks like a 29'er bike for the city that might be theft resistant...maybe. It's sure not useful for anything with no fenders (winter commuting) or racks (panniers, shopping). Just brand-X transportation, I guess...and
    where to you even carry a lock?

    Anyway....

    I agree with you, anyone that thinks that something like that is funny will sooner or later say the wrong thing to the wrong person.
