You would be surprised how many bikes are sold this way. My friend Steve Willis has an eye for this. everytime I bring in a new bike that I just purchased, it seems his eyes go there first. I'll bet 25% of the bikes I bring in have reversed pads. Not going to bid any of these as I already have my prize, besides a bit to small for me. I would look like the scarecrow from the wizard of oz coming down the street on any of these, all elbows and knees.
