Will have a far-reaching influence on mountain bikes in the future.
The free radical is a Genius design.
Only 20 days to make it to Taos NM from Hope ID.
I have kayak touring wired now.
I can't get over the way it handles on trails.
I can't believe that I lived for so long without an Xtracycle.
Best thing since sliced bread.
Of two things that have really piqued my jaded bike industry mind
in recent years, only one is an actual bicycle component.
That thing is the Xtracycle FreeRadical Catalytic Conversion Kit.
(The other is the Whistler Mountain Bike Park.)
the thing that impresses me most is
how far it exceeded my quite lofty expectations.
My life is as much as 20% better because of this device.
I was a happy camper before I got it,
but now I am like the happy campground host.
I am stoked.
It's one of the greatest contributions ever to cycling, and mobility in general.
Initially got an Xtracycle because of my concern for the environment.
But now half the fun of going anywhere is the ride -
the people I meet, the conversations we share, and of course,
the traffic jams I whiz by.
My only regret?
I wish I had gotten one sooner...
It rides as well fully loaded as empty.
It's the answer to my prayers.
My Xtracycle is beyond the new toy phase and into the full-grown,
what-the-f**k-would-i-do-without-this phase.
Just took my first camp-touring ride and I am hooked!
Xtracycle is the dating machine!
I haven't used a car to get groceries since I got an Xtracycle.
umm, I just want to tell everybody that it doesn't matter what the weather,
traffic, whatever, it is always way better to go somewhere
on the Xtracycle than any other way.
I've been riding to work ever since I got it together.
The old commuting bike is still around, but haven't ridden it since.
Here's a picture I took this weekend with my chainsaw in the sling,
just before I cut up the tree that had fallen across the trail.
I'm still so in love with my Xtracycle.
It has changed my life.
How many products can you name that are fun, confortable, useful, imaginative, practical, and inspirational?
I can only think of one: the Xtracycle.
We figured there was about 180 pounds of stuff on there.
I am amazed by the stability under load.
Thanks for producing a product that is so inspiring.
