@james@ssamulczyk@cycling Back in the 80s, I rode a pepto-bismol pink Cannondale racing bike with 32mm Continental whitewall tires. That was a great look.
@ssamulczyk When I upgraded to SRAM wireless, I couldn’t figure out why it took me so long. Also incredibly useful for travelling - it just works when you take your bike out the box, and the charge lasts along time…
@ssamulczyk@cycling@rower I am very old and try to exercise everyday. Cycle or gym cycle, run, weights but not forgetting Pilates and err tai chi. Current plan is to do 5 pull-ups/chin-ups having never done one ever!
My favourite thing about bikes and their gearing is that so many parts are swappable. If you're bumping into the top all the time move things up and if you're bumping into the bottom move them down. I don't use the lowest of the low gears very often but I use the 48/11 even more rarely, though it's nice when it happens 🙂
