Boring Bikes
Boring bikes are good. A boring bike will be there when you need it. It will go when you push the pedals, stop when you squeeze the brakes and go round corners predictably.
Not everyone wants a boring bike. Sometimes we are asked for a bike with "personality". This is a mistake, as bikes only ever develop moody sulky personalities. A bike with personality will stop working if you don't use it, need attention if you use it too much and maliciously get a puncture if you look at another bike with mild interest.
