Disc brakes are dead

Recycled this from somewhere else I had read it, hadn’t considered the ableist nature of the comment - apologies.

I fit guards with zip ties, huge gaps and untrimmed wire mounts because they don't deserve to be made pretty. #deathtomudguards

Parenthood has not been kind.

Just looked in the mirror.
It never is.

you should have seen them once he got caught in the rain

I knew i’d find a use for this bike!

I'm actually surprised you used London stock brick for your extension rather than breeze blocks.

I always wondered, how do you guys read DBAD? Dee Bee Ay Dee? D-bad? I call for latter

Weeping.

DeeBAD

Some people pronounce is DBAD but I usually pronounce is DBAD

Both wrong. DBAD isn't a word, it's a state of mind, like the sound of one hand clapping.

So you can't directly translate it to other languages then. Like Scheibenbremsen sind tot (SBST) or 디스크 브레이크는 죽었다 (디브죽)

I think it would translate like this: 비극

Who knew you were a fan of the BeeGees?

There seems to be no other sensible place to put this and I feel I need to make this confession...

While I was in the shed the other day I brushed past my wife's bike with a 105 rim brake groupset. The hoods felt so perfectly proportioned and I was horrified with how bulbous my hydro hoods felt in comparison when I got on the turbo that evening. I have now taken to finding excuses to go out to the shed to feel the rim brake hoods and am considering building up a new rim brake bike.

Cool story, bro. DBAD.

this is the sort of organic reaction this thread was built for
