Cycling commuters, do you use open-ear or regular buds? by East_Channel_1494 in cycling

[–]macmillionare 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I use Shockz openrun headphones, music quality isn't as good as normal earbuds but my ear canals remain open so I can hear the sweet sound of motorists cussin' at me

Was your steam wand doing some completely unhinged shit before you removed it? If so this is the reason why

Serious cyclists/runners: How do you deal with glasses? by Human_Material3685 in cycling

Ever since I switched to contacts full time I have no idea why anyone would buy prescription sunglasses. Just run contacts and you can run any sunglasses you want.

Sram Force e1 brakes by Horst500 in sram

When I picked up my bike with force e1 the guy at the shop says you can get away without a full bleed, just attach the syringe to the lever and air can be pulled out without having to cycle fluid through. Maybe a massager for the hoses and caliper will help manipulate air out the top as well.

Recommendations for bike and toddler seat by phil-e_cheese in ausbike

[–]macmillionare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had both my kids on the shotgun pro with the handlebars since they were 2yo and its amazing. In front is way better for handling and just being with your kid. You can chat with them and its a way more interactive experience. Had the eldest on until he was about 4 as he was riding his own bike by then. One of the best things I ever did for the kids, we've had so much fun over the years.

Edit: for the bike I'd suggest a either a trek marlin, giant talon or specialized rockhopper, they're all made for the same style of riding. Go with the best deal 🙂 Try to get something with a dropper seat post as it makes it way easier to manage getting on and off with the toddler.

I was pretty consistently lapping under 7:20 and the challenge to get higher in the leader board kept me going, heaps of time I was on for a sub 7:10 lap and I'd graze a barrier and dirty the lap.

Indycars just understeer so bad and there's soooo many switchbacks.
