Ferrari's F1 unreliability is such a meme at this point that you're really going to have to be more specific when making any kind of 'Ferrari = reliable' claim

OBAMNA PHONE posted:Do you end up riding out to obstruction point? I think I'll try it this year for the first time Riding out to obstruction point is fun, it's a good other viewpoint and feels a lot more remote than the hustle and bustle of the visitor center, but it's a rougher road than I expected. You should do it, just bring your good legs. I agree that descending the hurricane ridge road is definitely the highlight of the whole thing.

What works for me is the rear/wide part of the saddle around flat or a degree up, so then you get a few degrees up on the nose; pic exaggerates it a bit too. bicievino posted:What kind of bike is that?

I have a Specialized Power Pro Mirror on my trainer bike that I got last fall and I like. It looks like it's on sale again for $225. It would be absolutely idiotic to pay an extra $100 for the S-works version to save 50 grams on my outdoor bike right?

Has anyone heard of an adapter or modification that would allow you to use old canti or linear pull rim brakes with levers designed for hydraulic disc brakes? I'm sure it's unlikely, but I just wanted to exhaust my options. I have been itching to start a new commuter project, and I found a pretty good deal on Shimano's failed bullhorn STI concept:  But they only sell them for hydraulic brakes. I'm swimming in rim wheelsets and brakes, so I'd love to hear that there's an option out there.

I'm sure it's unlikely, but I just wanted to exhaust my options. I hardly see how combining hydro levers with mechanical brakes could work, but I'd look into Magura's hydraulic rim brakes and if they would work with those levers. I've understood that if you can connect the lever with the brake hydros often work okay together even if they're different brands. Seems like a great project!

Discount Bike is at my LBS for professional assembly because warranty. I found a powdercoating flaw with one of the pedals, and the saddle is missing a decorative rivet, so already I get to play the customer service game, but at least these issues are purely cosmetic. I told the shop not to hesitate to get ahold of me if there's a defect in the frameset or anything else. Will I set it up for single speed to slowly tool around town, cruise around the campsite, or go on leisurely rides around the local trails? Or will I set it up as a fixie so I can enjoy the extra knee pain and embarrassing falls?

Found an 53/39 DA R9000 crankset for cheap. 300 km on it, $275 cad. Guy also has an 11-25 for a really good deal, like $75. Not sure it would find much use, maybe on my CX bike if I race it this year.

Havana Affair posted:I hardly see how combining hydro levers with mechanical brakes could work There used to be these headtube-mounted devices that used cable pulls from STIs to actuate a hydraulic piston. I was hoping that the reverse might have existed, but there's really no reason it would have. I'll take a closer look at those Maguras though, thanks.

bicievino posted:My lowest is at $0.25/mi, my highest is at $10/mi. Oof. How do you all keep track of per-bike mileage? I get that different sensors of some sort on each bike makes it possible to track, but does garmin or Strava make this possible as an auto tracked feature? Please don’t tell me you’re manually setting the gear for every ride - that seemed to be the only way to do it in Strava last time I looked.

I just set the bike in Strava, yeah. How else would it know? Suppose you could have ride type defaults (Gravel -> Bike A, Road -> Bike B).

Auto mapping a speed sensor, power sensor etc to belong to a specific bike and auto identify it. Seems an obvious feature to me. No chance I’m manually setting stuff on every ride I upload, I don’t even look at >50% of them.

I use the same Garmin for all my bikes so yeah I just have to pick which one. But if you're already editing the ride to name it or add pictures it's just a simple pull down on the main edit page. Veloviewer is another thing I use sometimes that will give you hours per bike per year, and avg time and elevation and such.

It's part of my routine to change the bike if necessary as I'm in there doing an elevation correction anyways because the Garmin Edge 510 can be up to 10% short for elevation, I've noticed any ways. ^^^^^And coming up with a witty ride name title. Cervelo R5: $0.85 loonies per km Focus Mares: $0.70 per km Tk3: $0.75 per km I no longer own it but my $100 Caad7 was $0.02 per km.

bicievino posted:Personally I wouldn't buy any carbon rim brake wheels besides HEDs with their aluminum brake track, but I live somewhere with both hills and rain. I'm still keeping the Ardennes RA black rim in mind (between DT RR411 rims, Pacenti forza, Boyd Altamont and the Farsports carbon). I can't seem to find any rims with the same black machined brake track anywhere apart from the complete wheelset from HED. Are the HED Sonic 515 hubs they come with good? paberu fucked around with this message at 01:43 on Mar 23, 2023 |

Don't know about the hubs but HED rims are super nice. I have the Belgium+ and they have been great. Brake track still in awesome shape. Regarding the black rims I had some H+Sons a while back and they were full anno and the brake track doesn't take long to wear off. HED is probably doing something different but it's gotta wear off eventually right?

They finished assembling my bike... but I can't pick it up tonight because the shop is closing before I could get there. Poop. At least it'll be pissing down rain tomorrow. Maybe I can get it in the back of my vehicle. They didn't find any surprises, which is good to hear.
