Perhaps better taking your off topic 'comedy' to the misc forum then rather than attempting to derail the thread here.

I ride a boardman single speed with carbon forks. This is a good deal. Would like to know the weight though, should be very light. Bargain if your looking to get into cycling.

There's something wrong with the picture of the specs - there's clearly no brakes on the picture (which is normal for a track bike) although the specs do list brakes. If it is a track bike with no brakes, its use is pretty limited compared to a single speed road bike.

Dear John, and don't this this the wrong way I know it's hard being a cliche but many of us we can't choose our lot in life, I sympathise with your views I really do but (here we go) the very act of braking induces an element and we could argue a strong element of choice/decision what you will make of it, therefore the very act of deliberately not braking of course can be valued as an argument for decision, now take the decision to ride a non possible braking bike to the mix and we can determine the value of freewill

Women get a fully equipped road bike whilst the man gets lets face it a death trap literally on wheels, feeling the shame here John, I know I am.

Hmm so why is the women's bike almost 3 times the cost of the men's bike, a trend I noticed recently at my local chippy, when I asked for a small bag of chips @ 80p the male of the premises gave me a nice weighty portion (ooh matron snigger, (yes I spelt that one right, now I have to use double parentheses, what a drag.)) whilst his wife a female occupant of the said chippy establishment would give me a most definite small portion , this led me along a path of mystery and mostly misogyny let's face it. The fact I'm alluding to is that the female of the species whilst derelicted by their financial benefiting allusions favour a more financially beneficial portion according to profit I definitely would snigger (yes, how many times I spelt it right! Christ on a bike, a cheap one mind you) about that one.

I'm not sure if you're trying to be funny but the men's bike is an aluminium track bike (not designed for road use at all) with no gears or brakes while the women's bike is a fully equipped road bike with gears and brakes plus it uses a much more expensive carbon frame.
