>>2079645autists are superior and you know it
A liveable city zoomers whining about cars thread died for thisAlso I liek tubeless, boa shoes, and some parts of "the industry"When you grow up you'll see why shoelaces are annoying
>>2079663>When you grow up you'll see why shoelaces are annoyingboa and shoe laces are not the only optionsstraps and buckles are reasonable
>>2079665I'm using Boa in winter on my boots and velcro in summer on the sandals. Couldn't be better. Laces like on velosamba suck.

>>2079641sheldon did some of these things, he fore-ran the 650b trenderino and knew wider tires on road bikes was basedThe guy is interesting because he was pretty value-neutral and just liked riding bikes and tinkering, the new shit is not very amenable to tinkering so it makes sense he's more beloved by retro snobs. But he was living a level of frankenbike chad lifestyle most retro snobs would gasp at, I mean the man never owned an actual repair stand, said his rafters worked fineHe showed you can be a strong, legit rider and still fuck around to an insane extent and enjoy it all. His love of the fine road ride did not diminish his love of the humble raleigh 20, the beautiful duality of the virgin cyclist and the chad cruise embodied in one individual. The drunken master showed us the way but we are still afraid to listen
