Window shopping at Phantom cycles I notice that they are selling
Avid Flak Jacket Brake Cable - Bullet-proof Kevlar
Just wonder how many cyclist have had their brake cable shot out?
Sorry, boring Saturday night :-)

My brake cable is shot. Really should replace it.

A friend was out bike camping on his own one night when he heard gun
shots hitting the ground near his tent. He yelled out and the shooters
went away, but in the morning he found a bullet had gone through his
rim (on his bike wheel that is). The shooters must have been attracted
by the reflectors on his bike.
