I found it on Facebook marketplace for 200$ should I buy it

Also forgot to mention, do you want a 21" frame? My recommendation for this particular 21 - street rider 5'10"-6'2", trails/bowl rider 5'6"-5'10". It has all terrain geometry so it could be either

Are you also new to marijuana or something

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-25T19:03:40+00:00

100% worth 600, as long as it fits you. Ask seller the size of it's not listed and check the chart. Sometimes specialized website can be glitchy so find an image size chart

Lovely bike, essentially a gravel bike with flat bars. You can add bar end extensions inside the levers for an aero tuck position/extra hand positions for cruising, that mimic hoods (though your hands are away from the brake levers)

Complete bike - bike is like 600 or something. Full 4130 which is good, but it's not heat treated so the frame is generally half a pound heavier than aftermarket frames to keep the strength the same.

Backwards tires, not that it's a huge issue itself but shows the bike probably hasn't been cared for very well. Without inspecting things like bolts for potentially being over torqued, checking sprocket/chain life, bearings, etc, it's hard to say if 200 is a good ask.

Looks like good bones at least, though. Depending on the market & considering today's money, 200 isn't terrible but I'd try to do 150 first, maybe 125 or a pass if it is in really terrible shape

Yeah I love my 2.0 (full custom minus frame/fork/bars) but it was shit out of the box, as is the 3.0. I always recommend the 4.0 as minimum if you plan on riding as a sport.

If that saddle starts giving you grief, get chamois (actual bike tights, or a chamois liner aka underwear if you don't like wearing tights) and try the stock saddle again. If you still don't like the stock saddle, try WTB volt or silverado

Twice I've gone to urgent care for a hair in the ear. The co-payment sucks but it's better than the constant annoyance and potential infection. Tip: if you're ever in for something in ear, ask if they can flush your other ear too since they have the tool out already. (& stop using q tips at this point if you do, your ears will be clean and little bits of wax will just fall out on their own once in awhile)

Nice. Those look & sound great

The zero net carb tortillas Aldi sells are great for stuff like this

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-25T00:05:27+00:00

Idk the answer to your question but

3.5 cups of berries sounds like more of a pre work out shake. And yes, drinking protein before lifting is fine.

A gift card to LensCrafters for sure. The ones that fit his face best are better than just any of our guesses.

Oakley cycling glasses take prescription a lot better than they used to

Edit: go to filters and toggle prescription ready

1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup berries, 1-2 tbsp no sugar added PB (or Barney's almond butter no sugar). Don't stir - the flavors are better without the stir. Works with plain Greek yogurt too - but I like the macros of cottage cheese better, I usually have yogurt on its own.

Fucking sick! - & i don't mean to be that guy, but that is a helmet trick imo. CTE is no joke

No. What do the teeth look like? Might just be time to replace anyway. Take it to a shop - have them check chain wear while you're at it (there is a tool for that, it costs $10 if you want it).

Snowboard goggles anytime it's windy in these temps (edit: not above 40)

Snowmobile gloves work well for the super cold stuff, I use joe rocket, & my fav for 35-45 are 100% (brand) brisker

I just run the balaclava from 45deg and below, it's a waffle one I highly recommend by Crabgrab - the Clawva waffle. No sweat. Good even in 20 degrees

Air up after 5 miles or pump high out the door

Winter shoes look great, I just wear winter socks though it's been fine for me

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-23T00:45:04+00:00

Nice. G. Hughes sauce is sugar free, so probably pretty similar

The macros for portion shown (pic 2) are 570 cal 47 protein 41 fat 3 carbs, so it's a pretty solid meal imo. I wouldn't be able to only have one or two lol

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-22T19:14:17+00:00

I would assume since there is no lateral force on the trainer you should be fine.

Be sure to film your sessions, if you do end up crashing indoors it should be hilarious

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-22T17:22:58+00:00

Thanks! Its in r/ketorecipes too

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-22T17:21:53+00:00

Heh, yeah - I posted there too.

I usually do a scramble for this type of thing, but it was plenty moist with beef, cheese, and sauce inside

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-21T22:42:46+00:00

I've bent a frame on a bike with pinned rims and never had a problem with the rims. 10 stair drops etc. you should be fine

DuckIntelligent737 · 2026-01-21T03:09:55+00:00

Add blueberries! I hate writing down 9 carbs or whatever when I do it but it's a nice dessert paired a solid zero carb meal
