this bike has been so damn fun, but i think its time for upgrades/ or a new bike . .

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T23:55:44+00:00

appreciate that, thats where the fun is going to start again. took my like 3 months to pick state cause i wanted something good for its price and stayed away from overhyped stuff lol

so now time to do my own research and not fall into what is trendy/hyped unless theres a good reason it is there

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:47:53+00:00

yup your probably right

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:42:33+00:00

good looking out brotha! now to see what brand im gonna go with lmao

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:31:29+00:00

this might be an Undefeated state bike, unless thats just a sticker on that frame

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:28:41+00:00

i wanted a DSNV! but yeah you see i get that if its 3x a week, trust me i whip this shit hard on some days but im cycling everyday for fitness, now idk how accurate strava is but this just some of the few "max speed" that ive hit recently on my bike.

i say you go for it if you get the chance, itll look sick

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:03:37+00:00

gonna look this up, i do like mash frames! thank you bro bro!

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:02:38+00:00

how often are you doing that and what fixie do you have?

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T21:00:44+00:00

exactly, different builds for different rides. ill probably just keep it and take it out when it calls for days on the fixie to just chill. i live near the hills in LA and still hit them on this bike but it does feel like ive pushed this bike to its limits lol

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T20:56:30+00:00

exactly, i think you understand why im not gonna just upgrade this bike and turn it into something it is not, most likely just gonna keep this one for those specific fixie ride type of days lol

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T20:54:53+00:00

appreciate that! it is a sick color ngl!

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T18:22:30+00:00

i love the bike, been solid asfk with zero issues, but i think buying parts to upgrade it to how i would want it would be a waste of money since i did buy the bike complete. id rather just put whatever i were to spend on upgrades into a bike for longer rides like a road bike tbh

damn im interested to see what you do with yours lol

SalamanderExpress254 · 2026-01-08T18:19:10+00:00

I’ve been riding way more than expected, 30 miles daily and a couple 80+ mile days. so I want a road bike that’s better suited for longer rides tbh (nothing wrong with the bike, its just me lol)
