But I'm intentionally limiting myself to have to work harder; I don't need gears for what I want to get out of cycling, therefore I don't have them.
I feel that buying loads of carbon stuff is just a way of achieving the same goals, but paying for it to be easier rather than working to get there.
Plus your Concorde is rad, and certainly doesn't warrant replacing!
