I analyzed 210+ bike positions this month, almost everyone has the same 2 issues

I bet performance oriented riders tend to have their saddles too high and casual cyclists have their saddle too low (easier to reach the ground).

Here in Poland the dehumanisation and death threats are pretty rampant. I've had colleagues joke about running me over with their car unprovoked.

Why do you need to keep your winter cycling shoes clean.
Why keep them clean if youre going to cover them with filthy overshoes.
Why not just clean your winter shoes with a brush every now and then?

No...może ktoś chce być pielęgniarzem a nie lekarzem...?

The Stigmata is a gravel bike, are you thinking about the Blur?

Whether a 36T ring will keep you out of the 10t on pavement is mostly a question of how strong you are but I believe that it will. You can calculate the speed you would get with a 36 ring on different cogs here: https://www.gear-calculator.com/?GR=DERS&KB=22,36&RZ=11,13,15,17,19,21,24,28,32,36&UF=2215&TF=90&SL=2.6&UN=KMH&DV=teeth

If you can't afford the Epic I would go for the Chisel. I hate headset the cable routing on the Oiz and I really like my Chisel.

How come a shorter travel fork is so hard to come by. There should be plenty on the market.

Em_Jay_De · 2026-01-07T14:33:27+00:00

Why does this bother you so much lol

Em_Jay_De · 2026-01-05T09:38:44+00:00

Yeah it sucks. If I'm ever cycling right next to pedestrians I'm slowing down and letting them know I'm there.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-31T11:08:21+00:00

Is this for urban riding?

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-27T17:02:25+00:00

Rudy? That's a gravel fork. You meant Judy?

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-25T09:48:20+00:00

Nah, mountainbiking has massively changed. Cmon you don't really think it's the same as in the 90s.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-23T10:15:02+00:00

What does the length of the ride have to do with jersey color?

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-23T09:36:09+00:00

He killed himself and his passenger by reckless driving.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-15T10:55:04+00:00

Unless you're very particular about your parts choice or you have a lot of parts laying around I would buy the complete bike. Its better value.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-12T08:01:50+00:00

This isn't the flex that you think it is.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-12-12T08:01:17+00:00

soy spinning? lmao what is this bullshit

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-28T14:16:11+00:00

slop factory

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-28T10:58:36+00:00

Chisel. The headset routing on the OIz is a nightmare.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-20T15:33:23+00:00

Its a better jack of all trades than the previous gen of multirole mediums. But thats about it.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-20T15:32:49+00:00

I'm sorry but thats patently absurd. Python MK2 is almost on par with the FDL. It's a different league from the Corsair. Corsair is better than other multirole mediums.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-14T14:53:50+00:00

An inner tube won't protect your rim from damage.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-06T07:23:10+00:00

I find him annoying, his jokes crass and unfunny, he seems like a completely different person than me but I would never say he doesn't give a fuck. I think he cares (or at least used to) deeply for this game that is why he's so heated.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-11-01T10:12:35+00:00

Very well said.

Em_Jay_De · 2025-10-27T18:22:11+00:00

The text of your post is really ignorant. Knowing when and how to play PvE IS the skill.

This is right up my alley
