Bicycle Bar Where can I buy a bicycle for taller people?
I'm 6'4 tall, and weigh around 240 pounds, I've tried ever Bicycle they have at Wal-Mart and my knees hit the handle bars on everyone, and I'm just too big to ride it. Is there a company that manufactures bigger bicycles for taller people?
I'm so glad you asked your question, because, as a VERY AVID bicyclist over the past 25 years and tens of thousands of miles, I have felt that it was important to tell people here who have asked bicycling or exercising questions NOT to buy bicycles at places like WalMart, KMart, Target, etc., but to go to REAL bicycle shops and get fitted for a much nicer one for not much more money. A good bicycle shop will measure you for an exact fit, and if they don't have the necessary size frame and handle bars, etc., they'll order the correct one, or at the very least tell you they don't have what you need and recommend you go to another bicycle shop, but NEVER to WalMart, KMart, Target and the likes, because all they have are two-wheeled tanks that they call bicycles. If the town or city where you live doesn't have a bicycle shop, or an adequately staffed and merchandised shop, go to the nearest town that does. It'll make all the difference in the world to you, as I'm sure you're realizing by now. Have fun. God Bless you.

Carson Bicycle Accident Lawyer’s Top Ten Places People Really Would Prefer They Hadn’t Gone Before a Bicycle Accident
1. The all you can eat buffet in town.
2. The happy hour bar you like.
3. Wine tasting.
4. A horror movie that had a bicycle accident scene and a doctor who stalks the victim.
5. The bicycle shop to put all new equipment on your now ruined bicycle.
6. To cancel your health insurance.
7. To quit your job.
8. To tell your friends you’ve decided to take up professional bike racing.
9. To tell your family it’s silly to worry about you getting into a bicycle accident.
10. Home to eat some leftovers that are now rumbling around in your stomach.
Now here are ten useful tips of advice from a bicycle accident lawyer to follow if you have been in an accident. You can also learn more about how to handle a bicycle accident in Carson, or any city, by calling the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson at any of the numbers which can be found on our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com and learning how we can assist you.
Obviously, if you have had an accident, and you are reading all of this advice, it’s probably been at least a few days since the accident. However, if it’s only been a few hours or if you ever have another accident, here’s what you should do the next time from the start.
First, take a look around and determine if you or anyone, are hurt. If so, taking steps like trying to prevent further injury or loss of blood are the most important thing you can do. Even if some other driver caused you to be injured, it’s just good manners to help the other driver if they are hurt. They may even be so thankful that they admit their fault to you. The worst thing you can do is get angry or start a fight.
Second, make sure everyone is safe from being injured further. If you are in the middle of traffic, and you are dizzy, sit down away from traffic. If your vehicle is a traffic hazard and you have accident warning devices like flares or triangles, put them out on the road to warn other drivers and get away from the car. Let the police an other emergency personnel investigate the scene with the vehicles in place and move them more safely at a later point.
Third, call the police. Accident reports are extremely helpful if the police will do such a report. Let the police know you are injured immediately. Answer the police questions honestly. But if you are dazed or confused, let them know you need medical treatment and answer only what you feel sure about. Remember, your statements can and will be used against you if you admit fault, and it will be too late and too fishy to later say you didn’t know what you were saying at the scene. Police know that your best recollection is immediately after an accident.
Fourth, get the other driver’s information including their names, addresses, driver’s license numbers, make and model of their vehicles, license plate numbers, and their insurance company name and policy number. If there are witnesses, get their names, addresses and telephone numbers as well. If the other driver makes any admissions of fault, write those down as well.
Fifth, if you have a camera on your cell phone or in the car and you aren’t too injured, take some photos of the vehicles and the scene. If you can’t do it right away, do it after you are released from the hospital.
Sixth, if you are hurt, obtain medical treatment. Don’t decline the ambulance or hospital examination to save your insurance company money or to be stoic. Take your valuables out of your car if you can and get checked out at the hospital. If you are not hurt, don’t get treatment you don’t need. However, remember, after an accident, you may feel a rush of adrenaline that causes you to only start feeling symptoms of pain a few hours later. If you have a health plan that requires you to obtain permission first, call them and find out where you are allowed to seek treatment.
Seventh, call a good bicycle accident lawyer as soon as you have had your initial treatment, so the attorney can gather other important evidence and prevent the insurance company from taking advantage of you and obtaining such things as recorded statements that you feel fine, when many of your symptoms have yet to manifest themselves. A good bicycle accident lawyer can save you from making a great deal of mistakes and can shoulder much of the hassle of knowing what to do about car repairs, car rentals, medical treatment, witness statements and the like. If you think you will save money by not having an attorney, think again. A good bicycle accident lawyer can almost always obtain much higher settlements, obtain reductions of medical bills and insurance liens and prevent you from making costly mistakes. Also, most bicycle accident attorneys advance costs of obtaining police reports, medical records and the like and are paid and reimbursed for these costs only out of any settlement.
Eight, you will need to report the accident to your insurance company, but since they will want to take a recorded statement from you, just like any other driver’s insurance company, it’s good advice to retain an attorney first. And if the other driver did not have insurance, remember that it is your own insurance company that will be your adversary. You will also need to report the accident to the Department of Motor Vehicles and your lawyer can give you the form for this.
Ninth, do not agree to settle your claim privately with the person at fault for the accident. This almost never works out to your advantage. Don’t agree not to call the police. Police reports that determine the fault for an accident are golden. Your agreement to not involve the police only affords an opportunity for the other driver to change his story and blame you when the police will no longer investigate the accident.
Tenth, don’t pay a traffic ticket without a fight if you weren’t at fault or agree to accept a small payment for your vehicle repairs without knowing that the amount will in fact cover the cost of all the repairs.

What’s with all the bar end shifters? Do people actually like them or are they just a convenience for the manufacturer? I would have thought that the non-brifter default for drop bar bikes would be downtube shifters. Any thoughts?
