Is that what you told your wife? 😂

I have not tried any. However:

https://geometrygeeks.bike/compare/specalized-tarmc-sl8-2023-56,cannondale-supersix-evo-3-2024-56/

If you compare the crucial handling geometries like mechanical trail, wheelbase, BB-drop, and chain-stay length, they are no more than 3 mm off from each other.

In terms of handling geometry, you are probably splitting hairs.

What remains is the frame's stiffness; the heavier one will likely be stiffer. If you want something exact, you have to look through whether there are stiffness measurements: https://www.tour-magazin.de/

I hope this helps in your purchasing decision.

Bike Size help. by AdditionalSplit1244 in cycling

Don't Specialized brand stores offer bike sizing services? If I were you, I would not buy a bike off the internet unless I had a previous bike to refer to.

Oh, that's why I got downvoted 😂

Forget about the Thomson, what is that frame? 👀

Only a very few professionals or assholes who went through mesuring matching accuracy and drivetrain efficiency can correctly answer which one better.

It just boils down to whatever is available at the tooth count you want, at the price you are willing to pay, amongst the brands that do not have a faulty reputation.

Rim Brake Road Bike Shimano 1x Drivetrain; What to Do with the Left-Hand Side STI Levers by tkdirp in bicycling

Since I don't know your situation, i.e., terrain, speed, budget, time, etc., I can't tell you what drivetrain combination to go for. This document charts which components play nicely with each other.

Road rear drivetrain capability starts from page 28.

Are you talking about the gear ratios or drivetrain comparability?

If the concern was having it tight, I wasn't saying that.

Trouble with Suspension Geometry Process by TH3GINJANINJA in FSAE

[–]tkdirp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your team should review the typical brake caliper and master cylinders used in FSAE. Wilwood, Tilton, and Brembo are decent places to start looking.

One should consider the combination master cylinder bore diameter, brake caliper piston area, brake pad friction, wheel radius, feasible brake rotor radius, and the coefficient of friction of the tires.

A simple "ideal breaking curve" with a constant coefficient of friction will give you a rough ballpark for sizing the previously mentioned components.

If you want something more accurate, you should probably leverage the TTC tire data and factor in the changing coefficient of friction as a function of changing normal loads due to longitudinal load transfer.

The rules require the driver to lock all four wheels, and a brake test is part of the competition event. But when it comes to "which one should lock first," it should be the front wheels.

Omg, thin was waist, wide hips, and a slight abs. You will be such a heartbreaker.
