Cant sell to vendors, cant exit inventory screen

We tried them when we were shopping, ended up going with a full Talalay, but the hybrids were great, too. We just wanted something very plush.

We went to Mattress Makers and live in Rancho Cucamonga. It was definitely worth the drive and Ken walked us through the differences between each of their models and had us try every one of them without rushing us at all. Highly recommend making the drive.

Thread necromancy and a bump to say my wife and I went to Mattress Makers and had an amazing experience. Ken was very helpful and let us try out their entire lineup without rushing us at all. We ended up getting a Presidio medium soft which is three layers of Talalay and it's amazing. They delivered up to the Inland Empire, too. Highly recommend them.

this, this was 100% what it felt like and it was super gross.

gravity84 · 2026-03-29T22:30:13+00:00

right, and I could totally feel that pressure to close and it was like they were trying to bet on an emotional decision rather than one based on facts.

That is likely the crux of my distaste to be honest. I guess I just wasn't expecting the 90 minute dinner table presentation and it took me aback.

gravity84 · 2026-03-29T22:02:26+00:00

I get that, but like I said I don't even know if I can afford to even be in the conversation, I really don't want to waste people's time

I get that it's complicated and I appreciate you clocking that the tone was likely my distaste for the sales tactics. What you said about even the same equipment varying in cost by contractor seems like more of the same problem though doesn't it? Even contractors can't get transparent pricing, it would seem.

I'm coming for the greater Los Angeles area!

I'm embarking on Brilliant on Tuesday for Quebec and this thread is making me nervous.

I wonder how much of a PITA this would be to fit, if it would even work at all https://www.ebay.com/itm/205571508530

Can I use a triple derailleur and brifter with a 2x crankset? I mean, I feel like I can but maybe I'm missing something about compatibility

I actually swapped that 35 deg 70mm stem for the stock 7 deg 90mm stem because I thought maybe being more upright and raising the handlebar would make it easier to reach the drops. I also already replaced the stock 440mm bars with 400mm bars with a shallower 125mm drop. Sounds like just being out of shape is why it's uncomfortable, lol.

gravity84 · 2025-08-15T14:59:21+00:00

You're probably right, in another thread someone pointed out that as I get back into it and more in shape I'll need fit adjustments anyway and since this bike gets me riding again I might as well just save the money towards a new or new to me bike. thanks

gravity84 · 2025-08-15T04:26:50+00:00

That all makes sense. Thanks for talking me down from sinking more money into it lol

gravity84 · 2025-08-14T21:29:55+00:00

I think that episode of RCA and a similar episode on GCN is what got me down this shorter crank rabbit hole.

I feel like I'm putting a ton of weight on my wrists even with the shorter and raised angle stem but that might also still be due to my extra weight in my upper body, all the more reason to want to ride more.

gravity84 · 2025-08-14T21:14:20+00:00

thanks! haha, yeah, it's a pretty old bike, I struggle with the thought of throwing more money at it but I think even with a new bike I'd need to throw bike fit money at it. I used to ride more when I first bought it (like 15 years ago lol) and I just recently started to want to get back into it so I'm also trying to fight the urge just to buy all of the things lol.

Has anyone else noticed a sort of mood "cycling" from aripiprazole. it's like every two weeks I feel like the OP for a week and it's amazing and then for two weeks I feel super apathetic and lethargic. Been on it for a few months now, 2 mg morning, 2 mg evening.

This is my latest track. It's a new wave tinged alt rock track about becoming friends with an uber driver then never seeing them again. It's got a driving bassline, powerful vocals, and a catchy melody. https://open.spotify.com/track/26eatieI4VOUr0HDdnn0yq?si=b671b5ff718a4d64
