You're right...I have (and love) the Lazy Susan. You're right about the rear rack tubes - hard to get a pannier over bars this big..I had to try a few before finding this one that does fit and is hard wearing despite the pale colours (http://www.cyclechic.co.uk/shop/bags-baskets-panniers/messenger-bags-rucksacks/bolzano-pannier) but you have to take the plywood off the rack to allow for the clips (easily done).<br /><br />And I love that you chose that basket - i'm on the lookout for a front metal basket like it. Just waiting for the perfect bargain.<br /><br />The bike is heavy but enjoyable to ride. As long as you don't mind being overtaken by other cyclists!Emilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2726646815778569168.post-23522864414915648632012-01-03T16:10:02.468-08:002012-01-03T16:10:02.468-08:00Globe makes a bike called the "haul 01" ...Globe makes a bike called the "haul 01" or "haul 02". I got the 01 and i love it! it has 14 speed and about a 250# weight capacity on the back incorporated rack. problem was the tubes are too big for panniers to fit them and too wide for a child seat to straddle. I got creative and made a child seat out of a milk crate and DYI panniers. again, I still love the bike because, even with a 4 year old on the back I can still peddle up the steep hill from the american river to old fair oaks with a coffee in one hand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2726646815778569168.post-76321586323340832892010-09-29T22:05:37.237-07:002010-09-29T22:05:37.237-07:00I need that Lazy Susan bike, my name is Susan, and...I need that Lazy Susan bike, my name is Susan, and I've been known to be lazy.

I have several bikes...Are the tattoos optional?...<br /><br />I have several bikes with that "old school" shifter, it dates from around 1980 or so and is still in production.<br /><br />I also have those panniers on my <a href="http://2whls3spds.blogspot.com/2009/01/almost-there.html" rel="nofollow">City Bike</a>, and no I don't normally bother to take them off.<br /><br />I have not seen any of the Charge bikes around here, but then again, my local Trek dealers doesn't stock anything like the <a href="http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/urban/eco_design/belleville/" rel="nofollow">Belleville</a> either.<br /><br />But then again Walmart does <a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/Genesis-700C-Mens-Fixed-Speed-Track-Bicycle/14089740" rel="nofollow">Fixies</a>...<br /><br />Aaron2whls3spdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16954543886269776858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2726646815778569168.post-67005131247270533292010-08-10T11:11:59.461-07:002010-08-10T11:11:59.461-07:00OOOhhh, nice!
