And what exactly is that line pointing to..?
Why are they pointing to the kids junk and saying, “special purpose”?
Is this a "the jerk" reference?
I think it's supposed to be for the pad around the bar. But they definitely didn't catch that in editing.
This looks more 90s to me than 80s.
The shorts and fanny pack point to right around 1992.
I'm living in Denmark, so if bikes are cool, I'm living in one of the coolest places on earth
Netherlands has entered the chat
I didn't say "the coolest" just one of them.
Now, FIGHT!
I have the urge to bully this kid
Like you could catch him!
Toooobular
10 speed... Was this actually 80s?
2 x 5 I'd guess, hard to see but that shifter box seems to have to knobs and the right one has 5 marks
Silly me. I was thinking single at the front. Thank you!
I remember wanting to have one of these shifter boxes then, so most probably yes.
cue furious note-taking
I wish I had that awesome fanny pack!
You ever take it off any sweet jumps?
I definitely was not AWESOME!. When i had the money I bought a ten-speed from K-Mart.
