Looks a fair amount of scoblebrick drop action on that garish Cannondale.

Can't see the issue woth this apart from MAYBE the stem/cages.

moved to the right thread

^^^ rad English is rad. Stem, cages and everything.

Even patchy wheels and valves not aligned with tyre logo can't spoil it for me.

valves not aligned with tyre logo can't spoil it for me.

They are aligned, just opposite to the valves. So when the valves are at 6 o'clock, the logos are right side up and readable at 12.

"unless u race professionally, i think that the perfect frame size/geometry is what makes u feel good and confident. its more about spirituality vs comfort. i always prefer small sizes, cuz their stiffer and easier to maneuver."

Guys, we've been doing it all wrong. Bike fit is about spirituality

good thing I'm an atheist

no oats for you

it is even better when you see how low the saddle is for the rider

Is that low?

Also that he rides it around wearing a Casco visor helmet that costs more than those weird wheels.

it rather looks like he is hovering about his saddle, and his knee is quite bent, so yes it looks a tad too low

though he'd have grown out of that sort of ride at his age,

must a looked better back in 07

It's getting better and better

An absolutely inspired build. Could you give me some more insight into your lack of foot retention? Does it make you more at one with the bike? (guess it's a troll)

yes personal choice. i dont like to be attached to anything. at red traffic lights i want to be able to take my feet off the pedals naturally. i dont race and i dont ride superfast and even when sometimes i go faster that the average, e.g. down the hill, my feet never fly off the pedals.
generally speaking, i just mind accelleration and the small gear ratio doesn't strain my knees too much.

Haha imagine seeing him in the street in his cargo shorts with the gloves and helmet on, going about 12mph

I'd let his tyres down for being such a melt.

I nearly cried.
