merge function to stop this endless spread of 'the same shit'

Yes

mudguards suck

No

No, we need a merge function to stop this endless spread of 'the same shit' with one slight difference that some nutbag thinks makes a new category of bike

This thread seems to cover all types now

Except TT bikes, but that's just riding a turbo trainer outside

Waterproof shorts/trousers

spits at mudguard

Except TT bikes, but that's just riding a turbo trainer outside

that's gold

Yes.

I am purposely burning every piece of plastic that arrives here and I now only travel around the UK in a plane or a Hummer, just so I can globally warm this shithole to the point where there is no more rain and I never have to use a mudguard again.

Except TT bikes

Here's my old gravel bike...

That might be the worst bike photo I've ever seen

And I've seen Amey's

If there's one thing that I'm good at, it's making bikes look shit.

This can go on my headstone.

How much do you want to offer me for this one?

I can frame it up real nice for you.

They're pointed at the rear brake, that's how you set them up

LOL

I thought it. But decided to not comment on things on the Internet unless it's positive.

That sort of thing will never catch on

Aw c'mon roast me big boy!

All dry and clean and comfy over here, need taken down a peg.

I have said the same thing about the same photo multiple times

My advice would be to have the bar ends pointing towards the seat stay bridge and then position the shifters so that there's a nice flat transition from bar to hood.

And trim those mudguard stays :D

Aye I know, set them up and got the tape on, few rides in needed adjusting but I'm yet to be fucked taking it all off again so a wee tilt for now which is comfortable....probably until March tbh.

Thanks for the advice but would have preferred abuse :(

Okay better bin it then!

Put it in the bike porn thread if you want proper abuse

You can get away with posting any old shit in here ;-)

Does anyone have any real world feedback on the rockshox Rudy yet?

I've got a proper CX race bike on order for next year, so my NS can go back to being just a bridleway smasher.

Pic for attention
