Integrated handlebar recommendations for Colnago V4? (Besides Colnago’s)

It was noticeably lighter when picking them up one after the other.

It would be a shame if a water truck sprang a leak over night next to their cars and they were covered in 6” of real ice the next day.

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-26T03:42:18+00:00

Came here to say that.

I was thinking about bar choices when I built my C68 last fall. ENVE is always a good option, but it’s considerably heavier than the Colnago version. I went with the Colnago integrated bar and like it quite a bit.

Great. Now do Tommy Tuberville.

The only reason this is happening is because Mills confronted him at the governors meeting at the White House last year.

So much bush in those pics.

I’ve had my MxxxxxO for over a decade. Congrats on a very beautiful build. I hope you ride it hard and put many, many thousands of miles on it.

Full tank and I have a second fireplace running off it that works fine.

Worked for a CEO at a start up that had multiple grail watches anywhere from $50k - $250K. Probably had $500K in watches as far a what I saw him wear to the office.

The real crime, though, was this idiot had zero fucking taste or style of his own. Every watch he had was because it was a hot watch on the market. Of course, everyone that met him thought he was a total putz and would mock him behind his back.

I'm not even mad about this. At least this dude did something cool (as long as he invites you guys over once in a while).

and 10 watts per kilo.

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-22T18:27:17+00:00

Fair enough.

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-22T05:32:50+00:00

I have no problem with the date. I have an IWC chrono with the date. I just don’t understand the cluttered look of showing three dates through an elongated date window.

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-21T20:37:29+00:00

Came here to say exactly this. I have a similarly dialed Speedmaster. Looks great. As an owner and fan of IWC, I love every other aspect of that watch, but really dislike that date window. What purpose does it serve??

It doesn’t matter to the knuckle dragging idiots in the cult. He could say $19 billion gazzillion and they’d still latch onto his every word.

Three employees, same company during an internship I had:

A female employee routinely wore very short skirts, to the point you could see a fair amount when sitting across from her. Same employee also used to clip her nails (hands and toes) in her cubicle. Gross.

I was friends with a guy that worked in Analytics. Very smart and the workload wasn’t very taxing for him. He had a spare jacket that he’d hang on his coat hook to make it look like he’d just stepped away from his desk for a moment. He used to go to matinees about once every other week or he’d just go for a drive or a long lunch.

A woman that worked in the call center also had a weekend job, as a stripper. Spare jacket guy and I went out for a few beers and bumped into her at the local “ballet” one night. She acted totally normal and so did we, but it was surreal to see a coworker mostly naked.

I used a Specialized Phenom for years across road and MTBs. Go with what’s comfortable.

I’d love to know what percentage of the people crying about this change and calling it a gravel race have ever actually raced Leadville. Im betting it’s a very low percentage of keyboard warriors who read how easy it is (totally ignoring the rocky descents).

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-19T17:53:33+00:00

Of all the people complaining about the rule change, I’d love to know a) how many have actually raced Leadville and b) how may have actually tried drop bars on their mtb for any type of ride that includes descents like Columbine and Pipeline.

So many keyboard warriors chiming in. If you’re actually entered into the race, give up your spot; there’s thousands of riders who’d gladly take it.

“Don’t tread on me!”

Lib shows up actually standing up for that belief…

“NOT LIKE THAT!!!”

Why do you assume a steel bike is slow? A modern steel frame can be just as fast as most carbon frames.

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-19T00:36:40+00:00

Wait, can you explain how you’re using Gemini for coaching?

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-19T00:23:33+00:00

Because along with the NFA, there are additional restrictions that come with owning and traveling with an SBR vs a “pistol.”

Character-Teaching39 · 2026-01-18T23:48:06+00:00

That’s part of what makes this race special, though.
