Yehuda Moon works at the Kickstand Cyclery, lives on his bicycle and dreams of a day when everyone does likewise.
The comic strip is about two guys who run a bike shop and the challenges they face in the store and on the road. Yehuda‘s the utilitarian advocate; Joe‘s the go-fast pragmatist. Thistle Gin, a wrench and biking mom, rounds them out.

650B is a smaller-diameter wheel – similar to 26″ actually. Some bikes designed especially for short women run them. They were previously most common on French touring bikes.
It just occurred to me. If this guy IS the bike hypochondriac, it looks here like it’s Joe & Yahuda’s fault that he IS; it was the confusion THEY caused that MADE him the bike hypochondriac…
Joe saying campy while Yahuda voices support for shimano seems out of place. You’d think Yahuda would like the classic italian components while Joe would go for the modern Japanese stuff.
Yeah, I see Yehuda as more of an old Klein or a Surly. Maybe a Brooks saddle, agree with the leather tape.
I’m sure Yahuda says Shimano over Campagnolo because Campy doesn’t have an internally geared hub. Secretly he mocks people who have derailleurs on their bikes……

I think Yehuda should have said “Sturmey Archer”
650B isn’t the same as the old 27″ x 1-1/4″. In fact it’s effectively the same as 700C x 32, except with a slightly different rim diameter.
Maybe Yehuda should have said SRAM? I doubt he’d have said Rohloff, cause he’s not made of money.
