The big black thing on the tires and the
chain (I've tagged it) are the skirt guard.
Why this is wonderful is because your skirt -
no matter what length, will not get caught in
either the chain or the wheels.
I wear a lot of long billowy kind of skirts
that are a problem with regular bikes but it
hasn't been an issue with this bike at all!
oh, this is ROCKING. i think i need a bike,
and when i buy one, it should look like this.
maybe in red or yellow, with a basket and
streamers and a little horn or bell or
something! what do you think, alex!? =) i'm
so excited now!

Where is the skirt guard and how does it work? (Sorry, hadn't heard of such a thing before.)
