update: i've just ridden this exactly 345meters it has changed my life, what a fool i was to think dynamos were solely for multiday ultra adventurers and the people of the earth simply use lezyne

to see that crisp beam light the road before me, the icy black tarmac illuminated like i was at the Shanghai grand prix, the crisp edges of an artfully engineered beam. magical.

even at my pootle pace i managed to achieve maximum wattage, enough for me and a pal i would say. now one might argue, all light is the same, but there is a reason we no longer ride holding a gas lamp. compared to what i now view as prehistoric tech, the lezyne 650xl, the light of this super nova was incomparable.

the beam from the 650 watts of the the lezyne 650xl was sloppy, directionless, messy, much like my work on the first day back after xmas, in comparison, and it will sound like a cliche, the german light profile was so efficient it left me speechless, at least i attribute it to the light, it could have been the cold.

none the less

i will now be changing my voter registration in the dynamo debate to PRO DYNAMO.

the dynamo debate

I presume that's to be found in the gravel thread; home of all debates

i've just ridden this exactly 345meters

the festive 500 is still on, yeeeeeeeeeha ! only 155m left to go

#dynamos4life

The more I ride, the more I want dynamo lighting and mudguards on all my bikes..

This is the end to 2020 I needed

Disc brakes, full length mudguards and dyno lights... Best best besssstttt

This

I missed this thread and three DIPAs say "fuck reading it" but those tyres must be winning POC awards across the globe. A little puke here a little puke there.

Want.

Whats a DIPA?

Double India Pale Ale = a strong libation

Ah ha... As a lifelong teetotaler... I had total zero chance of guessing that..

I feel the same way, which is why all of my ridable bikes have disc brakes as well.

And at least one rack?

please, do not get it twisted, this thread is not a safe space for either disc brakes or fenders, leave them at the door please, also rapha is banned here

things this thread is a safe space for

rim brakes
hiking trousers
cycling under 25kmh
disliking the bike you ride the moment you finish it
reactionary opinions which could change day to day
good looking bits of cnc
overly verbose descriptions of mundane things
having your saddle pointed slightly upwards
bike bags which ARE NOT tail bags

Hat rack. Tie rack? Burt Bacharack?

Ok ok ok... My apologies... I'm trying to live my imaginary projects through other people's projects threads.... I realise this is not polite..

Though I must say, some of my favourite trousers are hiking trousers.. and I love the CNC-ing on the azonic DH stem from the mid 90s..

hiking trousers

Where do I get these? Can they be double thickness in the gussett for saddle interactions?

having your saddle pointed slightly upwards

unfollow

the best hiking trousers are decathalon or arcteryx, there is no in-between or further level, northface are cut like bin bags. people who wear andwander or snow peak hiking trousers don't go outside (source, i have andwander hiking trousers and i DO NOTY go outside)

@whatfriends you're forgiven for your love of hiking trousers

@cozey glad to get the fake fans exposed

Have you tried road disc brakes? :)

Edit: I forgot you had that Raleigh for 5 minutes

i also had a sram hydro kepler! and a shimano hydro hybrid! i've done my time in the mines to get this pass tyvm
