#GoodMorning#Cycling was pretty much impossible today. Straight up dangerous, so I just took the #KidsOnBikes to school and called it a day… Kids had fun, though…😂💀
@arkd szczerze mówiąc to nie tyle, ile wynikaloby z marketingowego zachwalania. Odkopałem jedną z sierpniowych jazd, czas jazdy 4:33, zysk z ładowania to ~27 minut. Czyli (jak dla mnie) lepiej mieć niż nie mieć, zwłaszcza że cena nie-solar była taka sama. @ssamulczyk@rower
#GoodMorning#Bicycle with part of #KidsOnBikes!😂 Don’t let the sun fool you, it was cold. But at least there was no wind so I couldn’t really complain…🥰
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes they are beautiful! That's why I keep that box in my living room. Fanciest thing I have ever bought but I do not regret it.
The Reevo hubless e-bike is a wild-looking electric bike loaded with high-tech features like fingerprint security, GPS tracking, and built-in LED lighting. It also doesn’t have traditional hubs and spokes or drivetrain, and it is the most unique bike I’ve ever reviewed.
The gravel world is about to see the introduction of a bigger wheel standard called 750d.
So naturally, Liam thought it would be good to test if they are faster than 700c wheels, and if they feel any different to ride.
WTB and Moots have been developing this new standard, and they’ve done this for two reasons.
Firstly, the larger 660mm rim diameter is meant to roll more easily over rough terrain and these bigger wheels are intended to help custom builds for taller riders.
What do you think of 750d wheels? Is it something you want to try or just another standard? Let us know in the comments.
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes imho the point of a gravel bike is not to be more/as efficient as a mountain bike off the road but to bring the feeling of a road bike while having dirt roads capabilites. I am saying this as someone who did MTB marathon events on a cyclocross bike back when gravel bikes weren't already a word.
For that reason, even if it might be slower I prefer riding a gravel bike with 650b wheels as the outer diameter feels closer to a 700c wheel with 28mm tire. The bike might not be as fast asa a gravel bike with 700x 45mm tires but I don't care, especially as I am not racing any more. 650B feels more playful and lively.
If I want better off road capabilities, I just ride my 27.5fat or 29+ mountain bike.
Did a loop from home, over Capitol Hill, and through Interlaken Park and I'm really feeling it! I really should've had a rest day after yesterday. :blobfoxdead:
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes it's a must have for #wintercycling. Batteries tend to loose power quickly in the cold, but it's a non-issue with a dynamo. I love mine and I will probably make the switch on another one of my bike in the next few years.
#GoodMorning#Bicycle! Fuck this wet and freezing weather. I’m forcing myself to ride, because I will regret I didn’t go later, but it’s far from my comfort zone…
@achadwick@bikes@cycling Looks like that shackle may be OK, just possibly need a new connector pin to hold it all together. Can't tell from the photo if the shackle itself has broken. But they've got what you'll need.
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes I had an original Purple Pugsley with large marge rims, but the frames had both disc and Canti bosses and i set mine up disc. I later had a local frame builder extend the front triangle a couple inches so it actually fit me, but then later sold it when they came out with the 4.8 tires, to get a frame that fit those.
@tk@biketooter@cycling@mastobikes There she is after modifications. I took the time to remove the canti bosses before having her powder coated. . The person who bought her from me immediately changed the color :(
