I didn't know Giant makes an off-the-shelf
singlespeed. Has anyone seen it here?

Curious social phenomenon occurring - since Giant went seriously upmarket
with their road bikes (carbon everywhere, wheels with no visible means of
support) those that have opened their wallets to one have a problem with a
brand that used to be thought of as, well, cheap.

Solution is to change the pronunciation to "Gee - aunt" which is an
upmarket, socially upward trend setting envy creator, not some popular
Taiwanese bargain !

See, taking your brand upmarket is about how well you can spin, and that has
nothing to do with cadence.

best, Andrew (who still loves his Giant Cadex, with ten summers gone)
