It was a dark and stormy night at Lakeside
After several exhaustive minutes of research (and the loss of all my body hair) I uncovered the truth.
Concerned that our regular customers might begin to trust our judgment, a crack team of Lakeside
mechanics, in consultation with the imagineers at Disney, locked themselves in the women's restroom at a nearby Nordstroms and created the worlds first bicycle with a spare drive-train. Completely useless, it is also costly, heavy and unnecessary.
For the first time in recorded history it is possible for man to ride a bicycle with roughly twice the necessary number of moving parts. The result is roughly twice the probability of failure, four thirds the number of uncomprehending looks and eighteen fifths the number of unprovoked assaults by motorists (no one is sure why. For the most part motorists are such even tempered beasts).
Based on the theory that consumption of a quart of Wild Turkey is preferable to a coherent theory of drive train development Lakeside Bicycles proudly announces a landmark breakthrough in retrograde engineering.
