The 'bait ting'

Artisinal > Performance

...Also I remember beating your ass up hills south of London even though I was 20kg overweight and on a lame 531 fixie and you being on a carbon Canyon with your climber's physique

From having a quick look through the Genesis Flyer thread

TBH I really like it, dat price tho'... 😬

Was pleasantly surprised that my appreciation of Acid Arab was mirrored by AW dropping Mattia-Surabaya on that mix

I’ve just reinstated mine [Fixed Gear Bike].
And my god I had forgotten how nice it was to just spin about the place. Slicks and a brand new paved road. The silence, the connection to the road, the tactility and the oneness with the repetitive motion, the aesthetic, the stripped down minimalism.
It is 2007 again and I claim my moustache, new fangled flatwhite and skinny jeans.
Who else is Rollin’ like a former graphical designer who sold up to open an artisinal pencil sharpening business in Shoreditch?

Cross-posting from a whole separate forum, nice

It's got a rider that once tested positive for EPO, if that's not pro-cycling I don't know what it is.

STW? Looks familiar

Ya, was

Road riding is a ceremony when you’re not making it competitive.

Part of that ceremony is requesting a gear change vis a vis indexed downtube shifters.

It's not about maintaining some badass avg speed

my return to a front brake is making me nauseous from embarrassment
