I can imagine. You really mean "top tube"? Getting the top tube as "close to the ground as possible" means laying the bike down on the road, or maybe turning it upside down. Am I missing something? Aparrently you're not missing anything. I tried this a couple of days ago and was surprised when it worked. I tilted my bike over 'till the top tube was about 6 inches above the pavement and parallel with the edge of the loop. I found it a real bother. -- All characters mentioned herein are fictitious.
