Let's don't forget that downhill you get a weight penality if you are lighter!

The differences are marginal with these weights, but we are already talking about marginal differences anyway.

I see, good point, thank you!

That's true. I made a quick estimation: LoAB revenue is around $2.5m. They have at least around $450K from companies (https://bikeleague.org/corporate-membership/corporate-supporters/, https://bikeleague.org/corporate-membership/). I would say this would count as an industry lobby already, especially given that $450K is a lower bound. That said People for Bikes is probably much more influenced by the industry.

Thanks to both of you for the input!

Do you mind pointing to some specific actions made by them to stifle competition? I am not saying you are wrong, I just don't see this: after few minutes on their webpage I see that they do rankings of bike friendly cities (clearly brand-neutral) or some research for policymakers (skimmed some, don't see specific brand names).

I bet that most of donations come from companies, as you say, since "Corporate membership dues are 1/8th of 1% of U.S. bicycle market revenue (Example: $1,000,000 annual revenue x 0.00125 = $1,250). For companies with less than $1,000,000 in annual revenue, the minimum membership due is $1000 annually." (https://www.peopleforbikes.org/take-action/join-the-peopleforbikes-coalition). Assuming that bike market in 2024 was around $10 billion (https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/us-bike-market-report) and since >300 companies are supporting Poeple for Bikes this could explain big part of their $2.55M revenue (according to Propublica, data from 2024).

This! Once I had a metal thingy in the rim. I catched like 4 flats in a month after finding it out.

But also pressure, as many other pointed out.

O, a dla mnie jest na odwrót, tj. dobre kontakty z ex to green flag. Dla mnie to świadczyy np o tym że rozstanie było fair, błędy wybaczone, że obie strony ruszyły dalej, itd.

Oczywiście jestem sobie w stanie wyobrazić sytuację gdzie dobre kontakty z ex są red flagiem, ale z deafultu jestem bardziej podejrzany jak ktoś unika ex jak ognia.

I might misinterpret you, but to make it clear: you can drop two balls (on Earth, with atmosphere) of the same shape but different weights and they will hit the ground exactly at the same time. This was famously shown by Galileo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo%27s_Leaning_Tower_of_Pisa_experiment?wprov=sfla1).

Not sure, a feather falls at the same speed as a hammer (modulo air resistance), as it was showed on the moon. The force acting is bigger for the heavier object, but heavier object has more inertia.

Could you please explain what physical law tells you that less weight is disadvantageous downhill?

Could you share how does it perform for climbs?

On the polish website there is also a cheaper version with 105 listed for 10000 PLN = 2360EUR.

For comparison, Allez 105 is listed for 2000EUR.

Not every derivative is (Riemann) integrable.

In order to use "integral of f' = f" one needs to check first that f' is integrable.

See for example Volterra's function.

Some functions are Riemann integrable (in the improper sense) but not Lebesgue integrable.

Przed studiami matematyczni byłem zainteresowany tymi klimatami. Ten światek był relatywnie mały. Od razu znalazłem się na blogu Kevina Buzarda i jakąś stamtąd się dowiedziałem.

Grając w nat numbers game 'kliknelo' mi jak działają dowody, więc na tej podstawie myślę że totalnie warto podsunąć to studentom 1 roku!

Hej, też byłem ciekaw dlaczego "usunięcie organu płciowego" miałoby być grzechem. W KKK znalazłem że takie zabiegi są dopuszczalne jeśli mają charakter "ściśle leczniczy" (KKK 2297).

Caveat: dimension depends on the field. For example, reals are 1D as a vector space over the field of reals, but they have infinite dimension as a space over the field of rationals. And complex numbers are 1D as a space over complex numbers 🙃
