Welcome @Bonzai Bikes Great forum here. Q&A all the time!

@Bonzai Bikes, welcome to the forum. Where are you based and what do you currently ride? I love the name, though. I love bonsais and starred some as a kid which are some 30+ year old bonsai "trees"...

Anyways, do share more about you .:-)

@GirishH
The trees are bonsai (means potted plant, plant growing in a pot) not "bonzai" (slang for fake cannabis; but unknown if user's name is in reference to same). "Banzai" means 10000yrs, and has nothing to do with plants.

I am truly a FOB ( Fresh of the Boat)..:-)
