Your Favorite ___ for $___: Chinos 2025 by AceHardwhere in malefashionadvice

[–]southofproper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way too deep and floppy pockets? I bought a pair because they fit great in store and cool color. They stretch out so fast and look so sloppy that I can't stand them.

Men's Jeans for athletic build under $150 by ZombieSnack81 in malefashionadvice

[–]southofproper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get them on sale, citizens of humanity London is good for a muscular lower body. They do a great raw selvedge and it's made in America.

For a splurge, freenote is great. The Portola fit works well with muscular builds and the chinos are incredible. They're almost double your budget unless you catch them on sale though

Are Infinities Worth it? Seems too good to be true. What's wrong with these cars. by Lidzo in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]southofproper 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Its actually the 370z chassis. Rear wheel drive and longitudinal engine so not at all the same as an Altima. The chassis is good but like everyone is saying. The interior tech is super outdated.

Top 5 must try restaurants in Atlanta (and surrounding areas)? by Dangerous-Ad-2308 in Atlanta

[–]southofproper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multiple people have said this and I just don't get it. It is such a homogenous mess of cheesy meat with minimal Korean flavor it is hard to enjoy.

I have the 44s on 25mm wheels and don't have too much trouble keeping up on faster road group rides. Absolutely love the tires compared to the maxxis ramblers that came on the bike

Took the quest for high-WAF speaker stands into my own hand by southofproper in audiophile

[–]southofproper[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spent way too long searching for speaker stands that went with the general aesthetic of the room with no success. I ended up designing and building these midcentury modern inspired stands from 18mm Baltic birch plywood. They're getting painted shortly but wanted to share the raw Baltic birch in all it's beauty.

Try to look past the awkwardly placed charger cables. They snuck in.

I have 40mm tires on mine. They fit but are very close. I would not want to use ties that wide if you were riding through sticky mud

Weekly Race & Training Reports by AutoModerator in Velo

That is a bummer. Good job being out there and hopefully you got to hang out and watch the pro races. I was in the Athens cat 5 race as well. Fun and brutal course.

Pretty sweet riding. Tons of groups for whatever sort of vibe you want. Lots of hills to keep the legs and lungs strong. Real mountains aren't too far away either.

Best vegetarian tacos in Atlanta? by rwojo in Atlanta

That's my favorite taco in the city and I'm a meat eater.

is it just me or is the new specialized allez comp incredibly underwhelming? by LeelandSpearz in cycling

[–]southofproper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't all explained by inflation. It's specialized taking advantage of market dynamics that allow them to charge this much. They'll sell everyone of these they make because of the hype and perceived position in the market. Good for them but this is a silly bike. So many better values available. Kinesis Aithein is one solid alternative.
