It warms my cold dead heart to see a proper web1.0 website

Dude was a true og. I remember reading about all sorts of stuff on this site forever ago when I was looking into building a bike: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/frame-materials.html

Unfortunately, he passed away in 2008; the site is now being maintained by his wife and close friend.

I can't tell if this is real lmao

This product is so new that we have not yet determined the actual retail price. Whatever it turns out to be, you'll certainly want at least one. Send us your actual credit card (not just the number!) along with a sample signature, and when the price has been finalized, we'll charge your card accordingly.

Order one and let us know!

I still give it an 83% chance that at least one random dude named Sheldon Brown has received a stranger's credit card in the mail.

That's a breaker bar.
