When I envisioned the ride I also figured I could swap out the pedals for any of the clipless pedals from my other bicycles. This would allow me to pull up and back on the pedals, using the hamstrings, instead of simply stomping down. But the Huffy pedal axles turned out to be spindlier than the clipless pedals. Short of rigging, say, toe clips and straps to the plastic Huffy pedals, I would have to use them as is with mechanically inefficient street shoes.

It is great to hear from a fellow enthusiast! That’s so great you rode your 2003 FrankenHuffyTrailKroozer across Missouri. I am even familiar with the stretch of the Katy Trail near St. Louis, as I’ve biked and ran on it while visiting my girlfriend out there. The Huffy had not even arrived at my doorstep before I was planning a grand adventure for it. Colorado Springs seemed a natural destination for it since my friends Lisa and Jeremiah lived down there.
Unlike the Huffy, the Around the Block bike is still a perfectly comfortable bike for riders who aren’t quite 5 feet tall. The Around the Block by sixthreezero is meant to be your outdoor best friend. It’ll feel like you’ve worked it in the minute you hop on it. The amount you can expect to receive in store credit when trading in your bike with a dealer. I did conclude one more thing from the ride, however. Lance Armstrong would not have beat me to Colorado Springs if he was riding the Huffster and I was riding one of my other bikes.
Chains come in one length and are shortened to the appropriate length for the bike by removing links and joining the ends. A special tool is needed to push out a pin to shorten the chain. The chain is joined by either huffy trail runner using the same tool to push in a special pin, or by using a special split link – which is generally easier to do. I took her up Independence Pass this week but she has just one gear and bogged down going uphill.
