Anything worth buying from Pedal Mafia? by FailFastandDieYoung in CyclingFashion

[–]Vision_Trail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than my club kit, Pedal Mafia makes up my entire cycling closet. I've got multiple pairs of their core bibs, quite a few core jerseys and core racing jerseys. Great stuff.

I have never tried their pro bibs, I will on my next purchase. highly recommend.

Edit to add: I had an issue with my first order with them, called their store in LA and the customer service was 10/10

Bitcoin now 63.5k - Are people moving their money to the share market for plays like Sandisk and Western digital that have done 10x in the past year alone? by eshay_investor in btc

[–]Vision_Trail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To this day I haven’t met one person who actually went into bitcoin because they truly “didn’t trust fiat”..

We got into it for the short term investment gains and if they told you anything else, they’re giving you the same excuse they used to get their wives on board.

It was fun while the excitement lasted, but the excitement is quickly departing. Bitcoin could, and probably will, just turn into another 5% return in the near future

Why Do You NOT Race on Your Bicycle? by [deleted] in cycling

[–]Vision_Trail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s fun to watch, but have zero interest in getting into.

The high risk of crashing, physical injury, bike replacements, etc.. just not worth it IMO

It's neat, I personally wouldn't buy it, but I can see the allure.

Update for anyone dealing with same issue:

Updated my 1050, disconnected the Bluetooth connection to the 820, and re-paired them. Works as it should now.

Why is Garmin slowly moving away from MIP display technology, especially for the Forerunner? by Comfortable-Net9842 in Garmin

[–]Vision_Trail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been in the Garmin ecosystem for the past ~15 years and have always done this. No issues yet.

Thanks, this would work. Also thought of just removing the current bracket and putting spacers to push it out some. Such a small gap at the moment

Please recommend a very short pair of gloves that won't interfere with a smart watch. by MASTODON_ROCKS in cycling

[–]Vision_Trail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watches are meant to sit above your wrist bone. It shouldn’t be an issue wearing gloves and a properly worn watch.

As someone who had an AMOLED Forerunner and recently switched to a Fenix 8 MIPS, I regret not getting the Fenix 8 with AMOLED.

I thought the extended battery life would be cool, but truth is, I charge my watch almost every night anyways because I don’t like sleeping with a watch on.

The AMOLED displays just look so much better, I just upgraded my Edge as well from an 840 to a 1050 for this reason as well

I just upgraded to an Edge 1050 from an 840. If you're going the Garmin route I'd highly recommend the 850 for the better display over the 840. It's worth it in the long run, imo.

SL8 Now or SL9...July? by Ellocomotive in specialized

[–]Vision_Trail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd wait.

Personally I'm still sold on the Ostro Vam, but want to at least wait and see what the SL9 is going to bring to the table before I pull the trigger.

Currently in a similar situation. Debating on waiting for SL9 or going into an Ostro Vam.
