OT – Bike recommendations

[scaredyclassic]

bike weightis meaningless!

the weight
that theoretically matters is your weight plus bikes weight.

a bike that is even 10 lbs heavier is still eprcentage wise justa bit heavier.

and makes no difference anyway because youre not ina race.

i love the way the enw masi bikes look. theyre pretty.

a flat front bar is nowehre near as comfortable as adrop bar. in mtn biking, flat ars are needed to brace against on downhills. no one needs a flat bar on normal roads. th reason its less comfortable is the natural wrist position. let yr hands fall to our sides. see where your wrists want to be. they are in drop bar position, not flat bar.

i love bicycles so much. buy nay bike! thenbuy another! spend a little, spend a lot, any bike is great! REALLY! i love all bikes. dont freak out ont he slection. if you turn out to be a biek nut then you will have a garage full of bieks anyway and it wont matter!

plus they’re cheap relatively to toher crazy hobbies.

and you stay ins hape.

and can save gas.

just buy one! and ride a lot!

except for carbon. dont buy any carbon parts, esp. forks. they are bad. i would rather ride no bike than a bike witha carbon fork. iam deathly afraid of carbon forks.

thats just the way i feel, but i am scaredycat

If I can ever get a job (I moved her in June thinking my wife and I might be employable), I’d like to get something like one of the bikes featured on this page:

http://sdelectricbike.com/

Then I would hook it up with a two-wheel light weight trailer designed for a longboard or with a surfboard bike rack.

put lance armstrong on a rusty chained garage sale special and he will beat everyone except maybe the worlds most elite riders regardless of how expensive a bike you put the remander of the athletic world, even the really strong dudes you may see on the hills of san diego — for the title of armstrong’s book is, after all, ‘ITS NOT ABOUT THE BIKE”. but he’s a freak, he’s not like you and me, and it’s not about hard work, some peoplea re just physiologically different…

even lance armstrong’s carbon bike broke a chainstay durign the tour de france. i will make this prediction; by 2019, there will be ZERO carbon bikes for sale on the market. they will ahve been sued out of existence … or people will have realized theyre dumb. the main thing about bike longevity is not really to ahve the biek forever; if you’re a bike fan, you’ll probably trade it in or just keep it around — the main thing is to avoid sudden failure because you could get hurt! good strong bicycle forks are very important because if they break suddenly it’s bad. so, STEEL. there ar emodern fancy lightweight steels if youw ant a feathery bike by the way. i lvoe steel bicycles so much. i truly hate carbon plastic bikes. you really dont need to buya new bike. for sheer massive durabiluty a 1980’s all steel heavy duty mountain bike witha big steel fork will last into the nexxt century and provide youw ith decades of bicycling pleasure. available now at a garage sale near you for 35 bucks. or less if youc na negotiate or it’s late in the day

I have been looking at these electric bikes as an option if gas goes back up to $4 + a gallon.

I already bike the 15 mile trip to work about one a week. With that setup I could probably do it 4 times a week.

I actually saw one chained up near the NASCO shipbuilding terminal last week as I was driving down Harbor.
