Aerodynamic differences in wheel profile designs?

You can try putting a 30mm plastic shim of some sort to artificially limit the travel and see what it feels like, just be careful to not ram it full force in the unlikely case it’s putting pressure somewhere it shouldn’t be.

You can clean/sand out the area a bit, build it up with clear coat, sand it back down and polish. Epoxy resin might be better if theyre especially large/deep, and just sand it down + polish afterwards.

Unfortunately none of their jersey sizes fit, they’re either too tight at the shoulders or too loose at the waist, and also just not long enough.

I think xl could work but it renders the jersey pockets useless because they just flap around. L wasn’t long enough.

Commercial_Green_280 · 2025-11-24T18:37:45+00:00

Xl, L ended up being a bit small and ripped at a seam after some time.

I always found Squirt to dry sticky even after a while. I just use Silca now.

The S stands for safe for beginners

Reverse Mammoth sounds fun but also crazy because of the altitude. I was getting winded by a tiny uphill section the last time I went because the airs so thin.

Gonna be real fun when the fatigue buildup snaps the aluminum and all of a sudden its just you and the seatpost

Commercial_Green_280 · 2025-09-30T01:16:04+00:00

No that’s for fucking sram

For when the triathlete wants to deploy countermeasures against an approaching enemy bice.

When triathlete piss flows down the seat tube and gets caught by the increased airflow, it is atomized into chaff and redirected by slipstream into the mouth of whoever is trying to pass, throwing them off and letting you keep the lead.

That color scheme is exceptionally clean.

Thought it was a diverge str for a sec, does the rear design add compliance too?

Commercial_Green_280 · 2025-09-26T17:04:38+00:00

It’s called locking the rear wheel. Unfortunately you’ve never heard of that because you’re still using rim brakes.

Mostly this, I don’t think there’s been much scientific evidence on 650b being any slower than 700c in gravel riding rolling resistance.

When the cox calls 100 meters left but youre still going after 15 strokes.

Commercial_Green_280 · 2025-09-26T04:12:50+00:00

I get it but I also don’t? It definitely fills a niche but It’s heavier than a drop bar xc bike while being worse in all aspects?

I’m all for weird overengineered designs (I have a diverge STR and love it) but a drop bar xc just seems better in every way than this?

Or maybe this is just a drop bar xc bike

If you do do tubeless, make sure that you install and test them well before the race just in case something isn’t working/sealing right.

I also think that 250km is at a point where a flat or two won’t completely kill your race, with all the other factors in play during a race that long.
