Literally never heard of that helmet brand until I read this post a little bit ago and now;

loving creepy facebook somehow skimming the text of webpages I load in safari iOS and then serving me ads for it on instagram.

Install Lockdown (iOS), use pihole, block ads in safari, don't use fb products

Can't feel them, but on my non-mountain bikes I unscrew them about halfway so they chew my shoes up less.

42t x 10-42 is the best drivetrain, change my mind

The Honzo is an excellent bike to be terrible at mountain biking with. (I'm terrible, it's great)

Did a part just fall off? Did I hit something? Catastrophic failure? Pebble touring the fenders? :shrug:

finally got the bike i ordered in july. it's a steel ribble endurance 725 with 105. put purple pedals on to see if the color scheme worked as i'm waiting on a wheelset with hed belgium+ rims and purple hope hubs. hoping it'll be around 20 pounds with the carbon bars/seatpost and lighter wheels/tires/saddle

Went and rode the hard water today. Almost made it on to Lake Winnipeg but the ice at the mouth sketched me out so I turned back before I ended up taking a swim in the middle of nowhere.

Put the flats back on and ditched the dropper. No reason for those today and I kinda want my Baffin boots for middle of nowhere ice riding.

this rules and i wish i had a wonderful expanse of ice and snow to play on

Hey look it's the wheels that come on a Lochside bike.

My wife bought me some dope socks for xmas but they're stuck in the mail so she drew me a picture of them to put in my stocking.

Sick.

I'm starting a new job in January so I thought I'd take advantage of staff prices at my current one. Ignore the Rapha bag, it doesn't fit properly and is Rapha.
Frameset, wheels and lights are new, the rest is taken off my old bike. It's an All City Super Professional 52cm, wheels are H+Son Hydras on a SON28 on the front and an oilslick NS rotary hub rear (clearance find). B+M lights. Drivetrain is a SRAM/Shimano/Box/Absolute Black mongrel that works like a charm. Brakes are SLX.

I love city bike

It is no steel beauty but I fell so hard in love with my single speed belt mtb I decided to try something better suited for road rides. Not sure yet if I�ll need to bother with slicks but I did stick some clipless pedals on there to help use every muscle group.
