Spelling it "derailler" just to annoy bike nerds.

Currently on the lookout for quill stems with a horizontal extension in the 30-40mm range. Any ideas? @cycling @mastobikes

I have very long legs and a short torso, so "normal" bicycle frames never fit me very well. I always end up with a lot of seatpost height and a short stem, even though I'm leaned forward comfortably and with plenty of power in my pedal stroke.

Ended up going with this little oddity from Crust Bikes, which was made by Nitto. My only worry is that its maximum extension is a little less than my current setup, but maybe the reduced reach will make up for that. @cycling @mastobikes

When I'm riding my I hate the pressure I feel to accelerate to the speed limit when there are cars behind me. My bike can do 45mph but must we!?

In Memorium: The Surly Cross-Check, Discontinued After 24 Years

After over two decades, Surly moved the Cross-Check frameset from their standard lineup of bikes to the ‘Legacy Lineup’ of their website. Surly confirmed that the bike is no longer in production and is unlikely to come back.

If you haven’t owned this gravel/cyclocross/touring/whatever bike yourself, you likely know someone who has. The Surly Cross-Check was the egalitarian choice in cycling, simultaneously someone’s utilitarian dream bike that was attainable and sold at a fair price.

The end of the Cross-Check marks the bike’s reign as the most bike that ever biked, the go-to way to make a pile of parts you hoarded in the corner of your garage into a functioning bicycle, and the defacto option that a bike nerd could happily ride and recommend to their non-bikey friends all the same.

Overrated: front derailleurs and how many people need more than 5 gears, anyway?

Underrated: cargo racks. People should have to go out of their way to buy a bike that can’t carry stuff, not the other way around. Imagine having to retrofit all your jackets with pockets.

Most overrated? Carbon. It’s brittle, has a really unfavorable failure mode, and can’t be recycled at end of life.

Aero-everything. Just like being obsessed with a bike’s weight, aero on the bike is marginal gains for most people, and it has really negative effects on the feel/comfort of those bikes too.

Kind of annoyed with White Industries at the moment. The original press-fit bearings in my Stanyan’s MI5 rear hub needed replacement a long while ago, so I had my local bike shop order them (which took forever to be shipped by Enduro) and swap them out. Unfortunately, the same amount of play persisted after the bearing swap despite said shop following White Industries’s directions to the T multiple times. My shop has called White Industries multiple times only to not be given any recourse.

I’ve been out that Stanyan for several weeks now and I don’t know if I should just get a different hub put in the wheel or something at this point. :blobfoxannoyed:

Also, I just discovered a broken spoken on my other bike's rear wheel that was just handbuilt at the shop a few months back (and also trued after a couple weeks of riding back then to be safe). :blobfoxgooglycry:
