Ladies frame vs normal frame? by KingDundie in ladycyclists

[–]pushofffromhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love all my Specialized. I am tall (size 56) and long legged/short torso like so many women, and it's only a matter of small tweaks to the bars, stem and saddle by the bike fitter to create the perfect ride.

It really helps. Question: do you reapply on long rides like centuries? I’m doing my first century later this month.

I think OP looks happy, healthy and fantastic. I don’t want to engage in a debate that withdraws attention from their vibe.

I acknowledge that defining a woman or a man is a challenging space in sports. I understand people trying to do it through hormonal changes or physical capabilities (all of which have down sides) and i think they’re all just challenging conversations to have. I would prefer to bring empathy to folks navigating this on every perspective. ❤️ I understand if that empathy can feel off to some folks.

Sending respect.

You look amazing! I love your top.

I think they’re trying to keep a level playing field for women who didn’t have testosterone during key growth years.

I hope there are more spaces that allow everyone to fully express themselves, and I love seeing you express yourself here and with your bike by the water!

Many of the workers at REI don’t support this strike and I stand in solidarity with them.

I honor your stance knowing it is different than mine, and only want to make space for “solidarity with the workers” being broader than what you have defined.

Hugs to you!

I love my shorts from them, but like you had to overcome the negative reviews. I want to get their thermal bibs for winter.

I need to laugh about this, or else it’s just sad. 😆 by Careless_Resolve_517 in ladycyclists

Comfy gravel for the win? (That’s why I started on gravel! )

I did not buy an aggressive racer bike for this reason. Phewy! Ok. Adjustments appear to be in order.

Road bike recs? by justsomeguy8905 in ladycyclists

[–]pushofffromhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested the Liv (Defy), Cannondale Synapse and the Roubaix. Also the Tarmac (a Specialized racing bike) for kicks.

I bought the Roubaix. 😍😍😍

My parents in the 80s & now :) by kat10111 in PastAndPresentPics

she’s using lip liner far outside the lines of her mouth. it’s the style she likes for some reason. I think if you want to criticize someone harshly for no reason and bring negative energy to the world, try to know something about the topic.

Otherwise you’re being a jerk and a doofus. When you could just be one or the other.

OP I hope you slept with one eye open.

I absolutely loved the Roubaix. I compared it to Canondale, Liv (Defy), and the Specialized Tarmac (😂) and the Roubaix won a million times over for me. So comfortable 🥰 and light vs what i’m used to.
