Default WTF? No gears?

£200 for a used bicycle with no gears and no suspension? I wouldn't take that for free.

At least the buyer knows what (s)he is getting. A couple of years ago I
discovered that some bicycles are now sold with brakes as optional
extras. It is a trap because they come fitted with space models that
have to be changed if the buyer wants the working variety.

The code word is "disc".
