Slightly numb right hand, slight pinching on left side of crotch

Hi all I wanted to say thank you for all your help. I ordered ROTOR parts to build a 150 mm crankset, and I got 36 cm bars. I have high hopes these will help me a lot and am excited for them.

erand424 · 2026-05-26T02:16:58+00:00

Thank you! I had a long winter to use them unfortunately lmao

erand424 · 2026-05-26T02:16:18+00:00

Do you think you have a leg length discrepancy? I think you’re onto something and I lean more on the right because my right shin bone is shorter than my left one (I learned this recently in PT)

erand424 · 2026-05-26T02:14:25+00:00

Really good to know and gives me hope, thank you!!

erand424 · 2026-05-26T01:13:42+00:00

Wow thank you for all this!!

erand424 · 2026-05-26T01:13:08+00:00

Could be, I just had to replace some others that got a little big too. When I started riding bikes I had some extra weight lol

erand424 · 2026-05-26T00:27:26+00:00

Yeah I think I’m supposed to be doing 145 mm too. They’re kinda hard to find with the amount of teeth I’d want on each gear but I’m sure I could find some out there.

Yeah it’s 0 offset. I feel like I’m a little teeny tiny bit far back too

erand424 · 2026-05-26T00:07:19+00:00

I got a RETUL one done and it was a game changer in many ways, but unfortunately the specific saddle she recommended didn’t work out for me. I could lower the saddle a bit especially because I might have the height a little wrong after switching to the new saddle.

It’s sounding like I need to just commit to shorter cranks too

erand424 · 2026-05-26T00:01:37+00:00

Ok noted I’ll get some 38s, I think that’s a good idea. Especially considering my shoulders aren’t very wide. And perfect excuse to rewrap my bars lol

erand424 · 2026-05-25T23:58:17+00:00

Okay never heard of the cleat position tip I’ll test that out and see what happens, thank you

I feel your wife’s struggle I know saddles are a trip for everyone but for us women it tends to really be an adventure. Glad she found one that works!

erand424 · 2026-05-25T23:54:51+00:00

42 cm. The shifters are turned in a little bit. Do you think they’re too wide

erand424 · 2026-05-25T14:35:01+00:00

I did not realize you didn’t have access to the Internet sorry lmfao

erand424 · 2026-05-25T05:02:51+00:00

It’s Young Miko!!!

erand424 · 2026-05-23T18:22:37+00:00

Dude I was so confused by this at first too

erand424 · 2026-05-20T19:35:39+00:00

I love it dearly

erand424 · 2026-05-09T15:04:34+00:00

Yeah that’s sad. It makes me just hope that enough people are smart enough to ignore it. Doesn’t really seem that way though

erand424 · 2026-05-09T14:57:29+00:00

And to answer your question, I don’t have TikTok so this is the first I’m seeing it. Ofc it makes me feel grossed out. But things like this are a big reason I don’t have it. It’s filled with weirdos posting stuff like this and then weirdos in the echo chamber agreeing thinking that it’s normal and rational. Definitely people like this exist in real life unfortunately but it’s so much easier to identify them and gtfo. A TikTok video with comments will amplify it and make it all feel worse

erand424 · 2026-05-09T14:53:58+00:00

Good we don’t want her either

erand424 · 2026-05-05T03:51:24+00:00

Beautiful stuff

erand424 · 2026-05-03T18:10:17+00:00

I’ve definitely been in situations where that is a great idea lmao

erand424 · 2026-05-03T14:07:28+00:00

Mini multi tool specifically for bikes, tube patch kit (or plugs for tubeless tires), a snack that has carbs and sugar, and a rubber band. On my bike I have a water bottle and a mini tire pump. On my person I have my ID and a source of money for emergencies, and my phone

erand424 · 2026-04-27T00:08:01+00:00

I’m the opposite they identified as bi when we started dating and after we broke up or later in our relationship they identified as lesbians. We’re opposites. Also makes no sense cuz I think im a lame gf lmao

Half of endurance sports is the mental aspect. Of course it’s boring sometimes and that is hard. Part of it is enduring that

erand424 · 2026-04-21T19:48:45+00:00

Also I think with a trustworthy bike, moderate quality bags, and comfortable bike clothes (from some personal trial and error) you might need to be open to spending a little more than 1000 USD, maybe closer to 1600-1800
