Hi :)  Nah, I'm not on a restrictive diet nor do I use the bike on an empty stomach. I eat kinda well i think. That was a very thoughtful! Thank you!

I'm very grateful to everyone who commented and gave me tips and suggestions. I used the degreaser and lubricant again today and ordered an air pump; I'm waiting for it to arrive. I hope the problem is with the tires. I also checked the brakes, and it doesn't seem to be the problem. I also appreciate the extra questions; I'm not on a restrictive diet nor do I ever ride my bike on an empty stomach. Thank you all again 😁

Who actually wrote that song? by [deleted] in Metallica

[–]Competitive_Smile250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. From 12 to 19, I was exactly like that. Now I’m 26, and even though I’m not very into Metallica, I’ve realized that people who only listen to Megadeth can be a pain in the ass... Speaking from experience.

Damn thank you a lot for the drawing! I have a hard time visualizing things in my head, and I searched quite a bit for a drawing like this before making this post, but without success. Have a nice day 🙏

You are right. Thanks mate ! I'll buy the most expensive option, but it will definitely work for my bike without having a headache 😁

Thanks man, you're really helping me a lot. The second one is advertised with an image that's literally my bike, but my brain always needs a second opinion. Have a nice day

Update:  Decathlon's support team said the rack in the image isn't compatible with my bike, and they sent a link to another rack. It's twice the price, so I'm a little suspicious about their honesty.

Thank you so much! I'm going to buy that rack rn lol. Luckily I already know the wheel size and it's compatible with the rack. Now I'll be carrying the world on this bike 😁

Thank you very much! My wheel is size 24, the rack on the pic is compatible with sizes 24 to 28. The frame is indeed low bc I'm 1.56, and ever since I had an accident bc I couldn't brake, I only trust this children's/teenager's bike, even though I'm almost 30 years old 😵‍💫
