Yes, you bike commuternauts can just roll your pants leg up. Or you can switch to a Gates carbon belt drive and eliminate chain grease altogether. Or you can slap a little veggie tanned leather steez down around the ankle and call it perfect: Portland Design Works’ Cuff Link is leather, canvas, and Velcro. It holds your pants when the butler’s indisposed. In a pinch, it will strap many other things. Apply daily.
