So, I'm looking for a granny gear and decided I'd search on eBay. A casual search for "chainring" returned a respectable amount of results.

As I scroll through the 4th page of results, I come across some loser who's exploiting his girlfriend:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=36133&item=3683691790&rd=1

Here's how it must have happened:

Dude: "Hey foxy momma... you want to show off your knockers to thousands of people?"
GF: "Sure, huggy bear... you know how much I like to show off my leopard skin bikini."
Dude: "Cool, hold this chainring in front of your knockers... people will like that."
GF: "What is this thingy?"
Dude: "It's for a bike, the chain goes around it..."
GF: Perplexed... "I don't get it... what does it do?"
Dude: "Nevermind, just hold it and I'll take your pictures."
GF: Giggles... "Ok..."

What goes through people's minds when they do stupid stuff like this? I mean, it made me laugh, but I don't think that's the point he was trying to do. Just trying to get a bunch of horny road bikers to buy a chainring.

I like how he implies that he is just selling off the inner ring cause he doesn't use it. So does that meen that he is running a 1x9? If so, doesn he know you can't cross chain so now he will have about a 1x7 or so?

I use the small ring and I live in Texas. He must be Lance and that must be Sheryl.

He was entertaining if nothing else. Entertaining does not always imply smart though.

It makes me laugh at Interbike how everyone goes GAGA over the Bomber Girls. I guess if you get anyone to squeeze into butt-tight pleather, a bunch of horny guys will gather around.

This dude just seems like a real winner to me... :stosh:

That leopard skin outfit...that's her undies, not a bikini. Personally, I enjoyed the ads... in the words of the Blue's Brothers, "how much for the girl?"
