[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 462161, member: 1723"] I had a Schwinn 3-speed as a kid, which was a step up from the Huffy fat tire 1-speed I originally inherited from my older cousin. That Huffy was a bitch though, and due to the lack of low gear made it impossible to navigate the hills. Rode the Schwinn from about age 10-16 until I got my drivers license. 10-speeds had now come into being then in the mid 60's, but wasn't interested. All I wanted was 4 wheels and a motor! Kept the Schwinn 3-speed, and used it briefly in the early '70s when I was living in my first apt and just needed a joy ride now and then. And some years later, I acquired a 10-speed from my Pap who had gotten it as a promotional item. It was a racer and I found the riding position uncomfortable, so got rid of it in due course. Never have had a bike since. Don't care for the uncomfortable feeling on that small seat. Those of you who can tolerate it, more power to ya! Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
