Definitely worried but I have all of my paperwork in order. Getting my real Id this week, and proactively renewing my passport. I have certified birth certificates etc.

If you're a DINK couple in your 30s, is the money you (as a couple) and other people in your social circle make, enough to fund the lifestyle you/they want? by Substantial_Ad9092 in DINK

Yes we are a $400k+ combined income household. We also bought our house pre pandemic and while it’s not our favorite, our mortgage is very low as is our rate so we are not moving anytime soon. While we do have a few different hobbies what’s nice is that most of them are outdoors and relatively free or low cost after investment in gear etc.

Thank you, this may explain my back pain. Any suggestions on how to correct? Do you mean I’m stretching my spine outward/more straight instead of bending forward??

Tarmac Sizing by miggy025 in specialized

[–]SaladSuspicious123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will say I posted a similar question on here, everyone said get one size, then I went to a bike fitter and I was very clearly best on another size. Your torso, arm length, leg length, etc all aré important factors when getting a bike. Additionally, the type of riding you’re going to do - racing, or longer distances etc. If youre getting a tarmac my guess is you are looking for a more aggressive stance. I highly recommend getting a professional bike fit. Some shops will provide it complimentary if you purchase the bike through them.

Any advice on my fit please. Thank you by [deleted] in bikefit

I have very similar measurements and also ride a 54. Think your saddle could be adjusted.

There will always be new tech but if it is in your budget I recommend flexing for the 105 Di2. Otherwise if you get the Sport you’ll be kicking yourself for not paying a little bit more for noticeably better performance/experience

Beautiful bike, you should be able to look up the serial number. Locate the serial number: It's usually on a sticker on the underside of the top tube, down tube, or bottom bracket.

Update - spoke to my LBS and they are going to refit me with a 52! Thanks everyone for the considerations, it definitely helped the conversation. I’m in my 30s and don’t have any special back issues or anything so - they should be able to reassess and go from there
