I think they look really cool, above all else.
As far as function, it seems they speak for themselves. Who needs a kickstand when you can lean your bike on a tree or telephone pole? And if the wind blows it over, who cares?
Seriously considering investing in a pair of these -- above all they look bad-freakin-ass.
Does anyone have a crash cage on their bike and if so, where did they get it and how much did they pay for it?
