Secret ingredient stealth brag

Seems clueless about what that bike is even for. Dentist? Eye dentist?

All bike owners are dentists, just the type varies?
I myself am a metal dentist, \m/

I’m a buildings dentist.

this is what I found most egregious. People can get weirdo nitpicky about their geo and what works for them (while it probably shouldn’t) may not work for most. That’s fine. But if someone’s preferred method of riding is watching their front wheel while they go over potholes they should probably just not ride a bike.

The exception is for pacelines imo. It’s annoying to have a lunchbox blocking your view of the distance from your wheel to the next one.

What about beautiful wide butts tho?

I find that staring at the small of the back of the person in front of me keeps at a pretty tight, but not overlapping, distance from the rider in front of me

stay on target

This will be a fun one.

did u know: rim brakes are just big disc brakes

That’s why hydraulic rim brakes are the best brakes ever made.

Brb: putting rim brakes on my new enduro.

Good call dude.

truth

i’ll agree with his one point that road racing bikes don’t need discs. but the technology that comes with using discs, i.e. lighter, wider, and more aerodynamic rims is cool.
