Was once told my bike was a "three-speed with five gears." Now posting actual bike repair #BR tidbits here on bsky instead of that other place.
YEAHBUT, the Rollei 35-family cameras had the hot shoe on the bottom when you wanted to take those weirdly-lit grab shots of people.

Technically, trapped by the dreaded burrito blanket?

You're off the hook. Mr. Squirrel is Charlie's dog toy.
Fortunately, your cat toy is in good health.

Also, not having to match indexing shifters to the number of cogs.

I mean, it's pretty hard to mess up with a coaster brake--unless it's a no name hub?

Interesting how @scamperbeasts.bsky.social has a different narrative.
Spice wishes to inform you that she has chosen this yarn octopus as her new favorite toy. Please alert the media.

Sorry I was unclear. There appears to be a simple universal joint connecting the steering wheel to the fork. So unlike an auto, where the steering wheel can undergo several rotations, the bike's "steering wheel" only needs to be rotated slightly--as much as a normal handlebar in normal riding.

Never need to turn too far; there's no gear reduction through the linkage.

Noice!

Eeek--Just noticed the little plastic Mafac tool pouch!

Those self-adjusting brake levers tho...

Oooo, the more vintagey one with the 36T chainring!

Sounds more like AFSK than CTCSS.

I think that having physical and emotional experiences with snowballs tips one's kikki/bouba score. Probably less bias when assessing the OG abstract kikki/bouba test shapes.
