One looks like a complete idiot riding an 1880s highwheel bicycle (well, in the 1880s for sure, at least). Bicycles still caught on. -- Owner of an 1886 Colum

- whenchamenia 7y agoTo use your own example, bicycles only caught on once they started looking reasonable. The huge front wheel on pennys was a huge damper to adoption.
