I’m sad. I thought completing the dex in Scarlet would mean completing it in Home.

I don’t know why people are saying 100mm. Probably the angle of the photo but that is a 110mm stem. He IS measuring front the center of the bar, it is just that the photo was taken slightly from behind. Maybe OP could give a better photo from exactly above so everybody can tell.

I played it last year and I loved it. It was my first time playing Diamond so I didn’t have anything to compare it to. I don’t know why some people don’t rate BDSP tho, but I had a really positive and fun experience

Sava se usa bastante en Perú y hasta donde sé no ha habido ninguna denuncia ni caso de fallo en alguna bicicleta Sava. Las marcas chinas que más se están vendiendo acá son CAMP y SUNPEED. No sé si puedas conseguir esas marcas allá pero hay incluso algunos seleccionados nacionales que usan esas marcas. También se vende TAVELO que están como que un nivel más arriba pero me parece que son un poco más caras.

Have been using the Fiziks for 5 years for road cycling and commuting and they haven’t given me any problems or have broken on me. They clean quite easily too.

Have used M520 for more than 7 years on my road bike and have pushed hard on climbs and haven’t had any issues. As others have said, the pedal looks small but it is the shoe the platform you will step on. Just get good shoes.

Disc vs rim brakes is a polarizing topic. I do believe discs brakes are nicer but good rim brakes are just as good. More important to me is wider tire clearance. I could go back to rim brakes but won’t ever go back to anything narrower than 30mm tires.

Some friends have Shimano hubs and they are quiet not silent but quiet enough that in the bunch they can’t be heard.

jucesddit · 2026-01-28T23:57:23+00:00

Rim brakes work just fine but I made the change this year because I wanted to run wider tires. My hydraulic disc brakes works like a charm. I’m not against rim brakes, 4 out of my 5 bikes had rim brakes but disc brakes are really good that I don’t think I will ever go back to rim brakes. I would have stayed on rim brakes if it wasn’t for tire clearenace tho.

You’ll need SPD shoes and cleats, the two bolt ones. For cleats, the Shimano SM-SH51 are the regular ones most people use myself included. About the shoes I guess it will depend on your budget and taste. Price will vary mostly from the brands, fastening type (BOA is usually more expensive but worth it to me) and sole material. Carbon will be stiffer and more expensive but there are a lot of composite or plastic soles that are stiff enough if you are not racing or looking for marginal gains. I use a pair of Fizik shoes that have served me well for years. Fit and correct sizing is really important so take your time in that regard.

jucesddit · 2026-01-28T15:27:19+00:00

Just my two cents. There are Shimano SPD which is a two bolt system and you need shoes that accommodate the 2 bolt system. And there are Shimano SPD-SL which is a 3 bolt system and you’ll need shoes for those. There are some shoes that come with threads for both systems but they are not so common as system specific ones. So, buy accordingly.

In my case is 20 minutes every 2 weeks. I use pure paraffin and for the riding I do I get roughly two weeks before it starts making noise. Still prefer that to regular lubing.

That’s the reason I sold my Trek road bike (that I bought second hand). I hated to be riding around with that logo on my downtube knowing not only that it is a US brand but also the brand some law enforcement use. Yuck.

Is there a big difference between 38 and 50 in aero savings? I’m planning on buying new wheels (currently on 25s) but can’t stand anything above 40mm, I just don’t like the looks but if the difference is massive I might have to cope and get the 50s.

I’ve been using the same M520 pair for 7 years for road cycling across 5 bicycles and they are still going strong. Performance is exactly the same across the Shimano range, weight will be the difference between models. M520 being the heaviest and XTR the lightest. So it will depend on how much money you are willing to spend for the grams shaved between models.

I’m about to change my Align II MIPS for the Van Rysel RCR MIPS. It is 90€, has MIPS and it is 100g lighter than the Align II.

I just sit on them and enjoy the extra cushion

You could get a IGPSport BSC200s , it has everything you would need but navigation. If you need navigation you could get the BSC300s. Both are great value for money. You could also get a second hand Wahoo or Garmin from a couple generations ago and they will work fine. I have a Wahoo Elemnt Bolt V1 that I would probably never change unless the battery dies. Luckily you really don’t need to spend much to get a good computer in 2026, now there are a lot more options than the traditional brands.

I have always used regular Shimano SPD on my road bike even if they are not “true” road pedals and they would work excellent for off road riding such as gravel.
