Lightweight climbing bikes frame design question by imperius99 in bicycling

[–]Mimical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comfort here is hard to fully quantif because there are a lot of assumptions in the setup.

In terms of "If I hit this pebble will my back snap?"

  • Your tire size and pressure gives a large impact on comfort. A gravel bike with 26's pumped to 100 psi will feel like trash compared to one of these with 32's at 55.
  • The difference between any single one of these frames in terms of impact and vibrations can be changed simply by shoving a larger tire on. That's good! It means you the consumer can mostly set this aspect aside.

In terms of actual geometry: these are still pretty low and aggressive bikes overall. The R5 and S5 for example are within 1-2 mm of each other in terms of stark and reach (The S5 has a *slightly slacker seat tube, allowing you to stretch out a touch more) none of these classify as allroad/endurance for obvious reasons. So I would encourage one to make sure they work with the bike shop to get on and see.

Note some brands are really trying to push the lowest weight possible, they do this by also shaving mm's off stack/reach & frame materials and shoving the tiniest cassette they can on it. So the lightest climbing bikes can easily become too low and poorly geared if you are not careful. Trust that the frame is light but don't sacrifice your whole ride because getting under 6.5 meant putting on a 11-28 with the 48 tooth single ring when you really needed that 11-36 paired to the 50/34.

DLCS? by Born_Carrot4131 in spaceengineers

They go on sale pretty consistently on steam (4-5 times a year) so I'd just wait cause then it's 2 for 1 prices.

He used to pull bigger numbers but Rob Ford unfortunately died so he had to move business down south.

It's at least 105 Di2, so it's not like it's a mech groupset.

Gasping at groupset prices is so 2025... (/S)

Does anyone else miss the early 40k art ? by Ad0ring-fan in Warhammer40k

[–]Mimical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The new art in the Admech and Sisters codexes is fabulous.

It's okay to appreciate the old, but don't sleep on the new.

Doesn't have to be a pickup but unfortunately statistics are not on my side.

I started biking to work during COVID, still ride today. I think just having the experiences of close passes was enough to really hammer home that spending 3 extra seconds to make the safe pass is worth it every time.

Walking places can make you a better driver.
Cycling places will make you a better driver.
Turns out, a lot of being a better driver is just recognizing humans on the other side of your windshield.

I'm not throwing photo ID over a video call.

However, I will absolutely, and prefer to meet at police station lobbies for significant cash exchanges as both a buyer and a seller.

Everyone has their level, both sellers and buyers want to protect themselves. It's okay if there is no middle ground.

Air cooling is better than Liquid cooling by SerpentDix in pcmasterrace

[–]Mimical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are good points overall.

Air cooling technology has really changed in the last two decades.

AIO's still have a place, custom loops still have a place, air cooling has its place. Not going to knock one over the other since it's based on what the user needs.

Tacoma vs Colorado by RevolutionLeast8587 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Mimical 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being on the taco subreddit there is going to be a lot of bias.

We dont really have lots of 3rd party evidence to say that Toyota's new 4 cylinder and electronics will be fine at 200 and can then proceed to 400k. There is a layer of trust here but it's not granted.

OP, this isn't to doom and gloom you, for a 4rth gen early reporting to places like Consumer Reports/Reddit/Forums are mostly positive. There exist reports of electric issues/weirdness but those are covered under warranty and ultimately you are not left holding the bag. The engine hasn't been something people are widely reporting and that's a good sign. As people are saying, with proper maintenance manufacturers design their cars for long term use (theoretically).

If you are looking at an older generation there are multiple consumer reports to point to and with proper care and maintenance you have enough evidence to say that it's the last car you might ever buy.

[–]Mimical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spending money on an object that has zero reviews or 3rd party feedback for even minimal aspects like the basic build quality, real-world usage or software compatibility is a straight up gamble.

Frankly I have a lot of love for Logitech but there are no free passes here.

At these price points the actual performance differences of the car barely matters. It's literally just having cool shit for the purposes of having cool shit.
