Well, maybe in 15 years they will have developed an upgrade. Hip 2.0, or something.

<<That's why the hips only last 8-15 years, and can only be replaced once. The part doesn't necessarily fail, but the biology doesn't cooperate.>>

In 15 years who knows what you can have to replace the hips. I'll bet the ones you get last much longer, studies are based on past performances. How long you want to live anyway? Long enough to go fishing with me anyway, I hope.

I do worry, U of O and a cyclist? Can't he get a drivers license?
