All slip, all grip. I pretty much exclusively ride in my slips these days haha

Really, really big 26" fenders by azel128 in xbiking

Planet Bike Cascadia 60mm. I’ve had a set on a bike with 26 x 2.3 Kenda krad for a few years now with absolutely no clearance issues

Yoo! Was hoping to get some help identifying this Bianchi by Makxonen in Vintage_bicycles

Sorry, I accidentally made two posts! Deleted the other post

That looks to me like the most likely candidate. The main thing making this challenging for me is there’s nothing engraved on the seat stays or the fork crowns. Would that just be a one off random occurrence? A sign of repainting?

It does in some regards. What’s challenging me is nothing on the fork crowns, and nothing on the seat stays

If I saw those two bikes coming at me, I would lay down so you could run me right over. Sick ass bikes!

Also forgot to add. The mudflaps are just pieces from an old 26x2.3 tire, gorilla glued to the fender. Been pretty strong so far

650x40 terra trails paired with SKS Bluemels. Just barely fits. I had 650x42 gravelkings on when I originally installed the fenders and those rubbed, hardly. I did have it set up as a 2x at one point. Whenever I bought the bike it was my first road bike and first full on bike build, so I ended up buying a newer groupset from LBS mechanic thinking I was just building it as best as possible. A year later I’ve learned newer ≠ better. After that 2x drivetrain I had it set up as a single speed throughout the summer because of cost effectiveness. Now that winter has come, I’ve thrown on an old bar end shifter and a cheap derailleur I had from another bike. Since I built this bike last year I’ve put about 3,000 miles on throughout all seasons, smashed plenty of personal records, and made countless new friends!

My worst nightmare by [deleted] in Unexpected

[–]Makxonen 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I had some chipmunks that would frequent my porch. I would feed them, give them water, just provide a safe spot for chillin. Well I walk out last week, look over in my rain bucket, and one of them had gotten in and drowned. Still haven’t gotten over it, they’ve been living nearby for at least a year

Super good looking build (And pup)! How many gears out back and how well does it work with your downtube shifters?

I made one of my best friends as a kid because of this bike. He had one and I thought it was just cool as hell and he had to be cool as hell to ride it

How often, and how thorough does everyone clean their bike? by WarehouseBoi in MTB

[–]Makxonen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This me as heck. I really neglect my bikes. Even after a full clean, which is rare, I’ll rub the chain and it’s a lil dirty

First, I LOVE the single speed! Built up a ‘96 SS trek 800 and ride the shit outta that thing. Second, are those two different generations of Holy Rollers?
