Does anyone know what the real danger is here?
I’m planning on bringing my (standard) Miyata to Burning Man. I could buy a
crappy uni from a local bike shop, but the thought of riding a crappy uni for a
week isn’t that appealing.
Does the standard Miyata have sealed bearings? If so, I’m not sure what could go
wrong. I imagine any uni is less vulnerable than a bike, but I don’t know what
the issue is with bikes.
