Piso Mojado posted:here's my hawg ^^^ This bike rules, and makes me pine for Seattle. I dig your choice in panniers and saddle. The fenders and front rack make it look totally badass. This is 100% my kind of bike. Here's my normal bike, with an assload of ice and a spooky jack-o-lantern hanging from the saddle: Here's the bike I keep at work, on account of I walk to work and this helps me get around campus quicker: |

Olympic Mathlete posted:I need to change the gear cables (inners and outers) on my road bike so I bought some. It was only when I got home that I remembered the annoyance of road bikes and replacing cables is you need to put new grip tape on too. And I hadn't bought any. I always just cut off the cap at the derailer, then yank the other end out of the shifter. Then you can cram the new cable into the housing and pull it through once it pokes its head out the other end. I use bar-end shifters, though, this may not work with the "I don't have time to move my hand to shift or pull over to pee because I'm busy winning the Tour de Poughkeepsie" integrated brake-shifter race-o-matic things. |

i flunked out posted:anyone else ride a fixie? I had one for a couple years, and it was okay I guess. One day while I was fighting like mad to control my downhill speed (lots of hills in the rocky mountains, turns out) it occurred to me that humanity has invented the technology to not make hills a complete pain in the rear end. In that moment, I was enlightened. |
