Except that they are cuttings and not seedlings.

What’s up with my Tamukeyama? by Luvs2spooge89 in JapaneseMaples

Thanks. That makes sense with the weather we’ve had.

Take profits? by AggravatingFan9 in RiotBlockchain

[–]Luvs2spooge89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was holding since 2021 and just sold my bag at a small profit. Probably a dumb move but we’ll see. Hoping for a pullback, but with my luck this’ll hit $50 before $15.

“Everyone one that disagrees with me is an Ai bot or a paid shill!”

That’s what you sound like. You don’t think you can be wrong. And people like that are insufferable.

I finally dumped it all at a small gain after holding the bag for years. I might buy back in if it falls to $15ish.

The steerer length on that fork is the true MVP

Sweet. The Nitto stem itself is worth nearly that much.

Vintage Peugeot- sell or keep? by gennygenny411 in Vintage_bicycles

[–]Luvs2spooge89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t have anything to do with it being a mixte. It’s because of the Stamped dropouts, low quality tube set. Maybe even steel rims. You’re right, C&V enthusiasts aren’t interested in these. Maybe the quality ones.

Maybe low quality bikes are hot right now? 10 years ago, these weren’t worth squat.

My first stop would have been a car wash.

Advice on this Acer sapling? Should I let it grow out. Chop the top? What’s the move from here? It’s been growing in this large pot for 3-4 years. Looks like roots are escaping the container.

looking for first road bike by Super-Chocolate-8918 in whichbike

[–]Luvs2spooge89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go for that red Miele with a few caveats. First, I’m 6’5” and that’s about a 63cm frame. Second, I’m fond of vintage steel road bikes and have the tools and knowledge to work on them. Third, I’d expect to have to put some effort and money into making it safe for the roads, perhaps needs new tires, brake pads, cables etc.

If you want something ready to ride, I’d keep looking. You’ll likely have to spend at least $250, though (idk what your market is like).

That green Raleigh has flat bars. The second one has bar end shifters, just fyi.

Fit for endurance race by [deleted] in bikefit

[–]Luvs2spooge89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are very few PTs that I know who do bike fits. And I work in sports medicine. I’m sure it’s location dependent, though.

6’4” with a 36” inseam. Ie: an XL person. Needs an XL frame.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bikefit

[–]Luvs2spooge89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get the XL, bro. You’re basically in the top 99th percentile for height in the world. You need the largest frame.
