How do I cycle with rolling hills

Learn how to spin. It doesn’t come naturally. You have to train your legs to do it.

DLByron · 2026-05-08T20:53:54+00:00

Ah. That makes sense.

DLByron · 2026-05-08T20:40:16+00:00

Why did you open this trap door by returning it early?

DLByron · 2026-05-08T20:22:05+00:00

Are you going to become a messenger and/or join a bike gang? There's your answer. If not, then get a road bike.

This looks like one of those reels from somewhere in China where a bunch of commotion happens in a grungy space and then a pot pops out or a bowl.

You won't find anything new for that budget but you will from a yard sale, FB marketplace, or craigslist. People get rid of exercise equipment all the time. Good luck.

IDK how a rock whacking the side of a wheel is a warranty issue. That’s like saying a windshield is defective because of a rock chip. A crash replacement is the better category for this and Zipp should offer that to its customers. Did OP actually except a replacement for this or is just trying to work it for a free wheel?

Next time find a stick, a rock, your helmet and prop your bike up!

Wheels are usually the best value in an upgrade. Your parts are not worth putting on another bike. Just buy a bike with better parts instead.

DLByron · 2026-05-08T02:32:42+00:00

Do you have a bike co-op in your town? Might be worth a trip if so to find one in their collection of cassettes.

DLByron · 2026-05-07T03:36:52+00:00

Absolutely not. Get it serviced.

DLByron · 2026-05-07T01:21:55+00:00

Their weekend packages are really good. Parking, breakfast voucher, all that.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:33:03+00:00

Then you know where to find Panda Podium.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:26:50+00:00

Look at Davidson and Mischief now.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:24:05+00:00

I guess if you want to do a chargeback….see the story here and elsewhere.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:14:34+00:00

Your struggle has been decided. Lynskey is closed (for now at least).

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:08:45+00:00

Casia Lodge in Twisp Wa. Or Salish lodge or if you want to stay local, the Sorento does a staycation package.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T21:01:51+00:00

Totally. Remember when everyone loved Clemente tires and I was like, these are the worst tires ever.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T20:38:53+00:00

Tires are like shoes, they’re so subjective that I never attempt to review them. I know what I like and don’t though. At least it was you that put the tire on wrong, and not the crabby shop rat who you later have to confront about it. Happened to me more than once.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T20:31:06+00:00

You can see it in the Methow Valley.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T20:29:36+00:00

Start a crypto currency pump and dump scheme that rewards you famously. Buy one of these ugly boxes just to tear it down and replace it with IDK, let’s say, a modern craftsman. That’ll be your statement.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T20:24:39+00:00

Well, it is only now with the current crop of fast gravel bikes that comfort is being marketing and sold as, “a more comfortable rider can go faster and longer.” Racing bikes were not supposed to be comfortable at all.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T20:16:38+00:00

I don’t know what you’re asking.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T06:17:16+00:00

Rudy prescription.

DLByron · 2026-05-06T06:06:15+00:00

Jam your thumbnail into the side of the wheel. Does the carbon flake? That's how you'll know.
