CONT

[A] half racing bike [has] a somewhat shorter wheelbase, steeper seat tube, derailleur gears, fenders, [a] rack...

Domaine(s)
  • Sortes de véhicules automobiles et de bicyclettes
  • Cyclisme
DEF

Bicyclette de tourisme munie d'un guidon de course et de roues à boyaux épais protégées par des garde-boue.

OBS

Son guidon modèle Tour de France, ses roues de 700 mm de diamètre […] son système de double plateau et de dérailleur à pignons lui donnent de vrais airs de monture de compétition. Ceux qui la chevauchent en oublient les garde-boue et le système d'éclairage que le règlement du Code de la route et le besoin de confort imposent.
