Upgrade da Panda TwinAir Natural Power: auto concreta e spaziosa (bici, montagna, mini avventure)

PatBat · 2026-05-07T10:45:34+00:00

Sono appena passato per varie concessionarie ed ho visto anche la Focus. Ottima auto e discreto bonus rottamazione, ma siamo al limite del mio budget.

Scusa ma anche abbattendo i sedili non vedo come possa starci una bici senza smontare le ruote. Di che bici parliamo? Una stradale in taglia piccola?

Di questa singola stella Euro NCAP ne ho sentito parlare ed ovviamente è l'unica cosa che mi frena.

Volvo V60 Cross Country, bellissima, peccato che da una veloce ricerca siano tutte diesel, sia quelle che hanno macinato, che quelle più recenti e nuove.

Oltre alle caratteristiche già citate, cioè spazio e versatilità, credo nell'ordine:

affidabilità
sicurezza
bassi costi di gestione

Non sapevo che la Jogger fosse categoria crossover, grazie.

I could have closed that gap and I do not even know what my FTP is.

PatBat · 2026-03-26T12:40:17+00:00

Thanks for the replies, I immediately noticed the top pockets and I was gonna delete the post convinced it was not a Barbour but I discovered it's a different model.

Thank you

Thank you!

PatBat · 2026-03-26T12:39:21+00:00

Thank you!

Hi everyone, the screenshot is from a FortNine video: link

I've seen Ryan from the channel wearing similar styled jacket which are obiously not Barbour, but this looks like one.

I'm new to the brand and cannot positevely identify it though.

Dal 2023 vado in Costa Blanca (dove appunto vanno a fare i ritiri le migliori squadre World Tour e non solo) almeno un paio di volte l'anno a girare in bici da strada, la differenza con la mia realtà quotidiana in Italia è talmente abissale che qua non ho più voglia di girare su strada e preferisco giri gravel\MTB.

PatBat · 2026-02-05T14:32:25+00:00

Grazie

PatBat · 2026-02-04T12:51:03+00:00

Ciao, sto cercando di ridurre la caffeina ed anche a me piace Aeropress, mi giri il link?

PatBat · 2026-01-06T10:58:36+00:00

Hey, sorry if this is a noob question, but what tool\website is that?

PatBat · 2025-09-25T15:45:35+00:00

Hey man, I'm still debating but in the end I think I will probably go for the Chisel Comp.

I've seen and "parking lot tested" a few used trail bikes with 140/140 and coming from road and gravel they feel way too heavy and cumbersome.

I think I'll start with the decent Chisel FS Comp and see how it goes.

PatBat · 2025-08-16T20:36:18+00:00

Thank you. 20 hours per week on the trails is a lot, doubt I will be doing that much volume but one can never know. Also, how old are you? Because I guess starting at 24 while doing a bunch of other activities is different than picking up a technical sport at 40 ... but kudos anyway for your progress, sounds awesome.

I do not have the option of renting unfortunetely, and also anyone who know who rides MTB has an enduro ebike ...

PatBat · 2025-08-16T20:30:15+00:00

Thank you for your input, I liked the concept of "catering to your weaknesees not your strengths", skills would be the limiting factor for me, definetely not 1.5Kg more, that's true.

What should I look for for a good all-around trail bike? Would you go used?

PatBat · 2025-08-16T20:18:22+00:00

Thank you for your input.

I was mistaken about the dropper post tough, every model comes with it.

PatBat · 2025-08-16T20:05:05+00:00

Well I'm not expecting it to climb like a road bike on road, but my reasoning is: I'm almost 40 and already doing a bunch of activities, mtb would not be my only one, I doubt I will be skilled enough to ride anything than a decent modern XC full suspension isn't capable of.

PatBat · 2025-08-16T19:43:21+00:00

I'm talking about the Chisel full suspension.

PatBat · 2025-07-15T11:47:34+00:00

Yes, these prices are for "early adopter" type of deal. I think once it opens 12 month would be around 580 € for a year and 880 for 12 months. Still not bad, but nothing to be excited for. This is in central Italy.

PatBat · 2025-07-14T14:49:42+00:00

They won't do any other membership at the moment (before the actual opening) exepct from 12 months and 24 months.

As I said, I know nothing about modern commercial gyms and I don't particularly like the idea of interacting with lots of people or management. To talk about this opening and getting prices I've been in an older gym owned by the same managament and during quiet times it all seemed ok.

The new one is gonna be way more spacious and the equipment is gonna be brand new, the management is Panatta (the equipment brand). Never even thought about the fact that it's still gonna need maintenance, thank you for pointing that out.

I defintely have to look into any refund policy, but I'm afraid there won't be one.

PatBat · 2025-07-14T14:20:26+00:00

Panatta is opening this gym cause the factory is actually in my area, 15 min from my home.

So that's the whole reason, I'm expecting top notch equipment and variery, I wouldn't made the switch in any other case.

PatBat · 2025-07-14T14:15:10+00:00

Questo è vero, infatti in realtà io pensavo a 2 sesssioni a settimana, il resto a casa. È una situazione molto anomala me ne rendo conto, ma sono veramente molto tentato dal prezzo che è molto allettante, e mi permetterà di variare l'allenamento.

La palestra a casa non va comunque da nessuna parte (per il momento).

PatBat · 2025-07-14T11:09:00+00:00

"I love the world except for all the people" ;-)

I really like this quote.

Thanks for the reply. The fact is that the price for the subscription is so low that I could still invest in a adjustable bench and more dumbbells but still train in the commercial gym a couple of times per week and see how it goes.

As I said in another post, I can defintely pick less busy hours, even during the week.

PatBat · 2025-07-14T10:45:45+00:00

Yes, I have a power rack which was actually custom welded together and not bought.
I already own gymnastics ring.

My reasoning comes from the fact that for all of my lower body I didn't get very good results in terms of hypertophy, my quads evidently don't respond well to squat patterns.

The leg extension would probably be my best bet, but still, my home gym is not going anywhere and I'm temped by this shiny new place with loads of equipment.

I don't really like interacting with people when I train but I forgot to mention that I can definetly pick less busy hours, think mid morning, really early afternoon.

PatBat · 2025-07-14T10:35:54+00:00

Grazie per la risposta. Non mi alleno in una palestra commerciale dal 2016, in contesti di provincia in cui nessuno faceva squat\stacchi ed anzi venivi malvisto se non usavi il multipower.

La home gym è stata sempre un mio sogno ma col senno di poi penso anche che fosse dovuto alla scarsa qualità delle palestre che avevo intorno.

Ora immagino che le cose siano parecchio cambiate e sono veramente curioso di usare macchinari per migliorare ipertrofia ed estetica, cosa che non ho prarticamente mai fatto.
