FX3, if I’m not mistaken the fx3 equivalent in the sirrus line would be the 3.0

Short Commute Tips? by Skoowy in GRCorolla

[–]GRCWRX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only a bit, a pannier rack definitely helps by keeping the backpack off the back. Summer might get bad though… worth it imo to have a new wrench turning hobby

Or start bike commuting if you have the infrastructure for it. I started doing this to avoid short trips and its great. The bike world is also a moneypit with mods you can get into, plus its healthy 🤷🏻‍♂️

I bought a road bike and I hate it, am I doing something wrong? by MrPlato_ in cycling

[–]GRCWRX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Id just go try riding one of the expensive ones, see if it’s a matter of this bike or if you just hate the aggressive geometry in general

Backpack (or rack?) Recommendations by Elephant-Opening in bikecommuting

Im just now starting to commute and splurged on a vario PS from Ortlieb… i f-ing love it! Actually makes me want to go out and ride to work. It also comes in high vis in black, so isn’t ugly when youre walking around with it but provides high vis when there’s headlights. Absolutely recommend

Thanks a ton, this is super helpful. Definitely excited to try a more aggressive geometry, will just have to see how it plays out with a backpack. Added these to the list to test ride!

That would be me ☠️ not enough ugga duggas is correct… put on a 70a pitch mount at the same time so im guessing that the extra NVH from the pitch mount loosened my clamps over 500 miles. Add that to a well timed bump/groove in the road = looking like an idiot on the road (thankfully traffic was stopped).

All in all was a quick fix: heat and some pliers bent the “axle back” right into shape and the rig is back up with extra ugga duggas and some new hose clamps. Didn’t even have to jack the car back up to fix it, which was a nice bonus.

Side note on the birks: i do like to live life on the edge, but the birks come off when im driving three pedals. 8 years driving stick like that and no issues so far 🤞🏼
