FORTY FIVE?! BRUH!!

nah that can't be right, the app must have started recording while i was driving

it was a light ride, we weren't gunning it...i wanna say my top speed was like 21mph

rode around with MakeNTGreatAgain today in my city, shout outs to him, he a real close friend of mine

bonus picture of my brother's bicycle, excuse the mess. he told me his stand was about $150 usd btw for those looking for one (considering he has a park tool stand, you could probably get one for cheaper than that i think)

what size is his super pista? need detailed pics of the bike and components

off the bat i see he has Omnium cranks

Oh yeah, I should have guessed it because that's happened to me, too. 45 is effing INSANE on a bicycle.

it's pretty generic tbh, not sure how to explain it. nothing fancier than what is present. it's a 51
i can post my steel 2008 pista in a bit (just lazy and depressed), my part list is listed on the front page i just deleted the photos and i don't rock the aerospoke anymore, just my regular wheelset.

Threat it like a car. Low-ball maybe 800? Just remember it's a seller's market right now with the pandemic going on.

My Giant OCR2.

Man, my days of super long rides are definitely behind me, at least for now. Something to work back up to.

And you know, because it's NT, I had to keep up with the WDYWT vibe :

LOVE the Zoom Challenges!!! I still wear my pair from time to time.

With the components and everything the way he has it set up, that's easily a $2k bike brand new. Bianchi frame, carbon fork, seat post, and wheels, FSA chain ring, 105 & Ultegra components, and he has it in VERY nice condition. MAN!

Honestly, the $1200 he's asking is fair, but I would approach him with $1k cash, and $200 in another pocket in case he was firm on the $1200.

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

It also has carbon wheels

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

New bike, copped it for $700

going to take off these 25c's and throw on my 23's

Why? They’re not faster and I love the extra cushion of 25s - in fact I’m thinking of trying 28s next time.

makes me feel like lance armstrong.

but these25s have tread where as the 23's are LRR i would assume they are a tad faster

Nice climb this morning.

 

[thefreshlife]

Nice! I just bought my first road bike the other day, and it's also a Bianchi Via Nirone 7 (though nowhere as nice as yours!)

Bianchi boys indeed

Buddy posted an elevation gain of almost a 1/2 a mile. I get excited with an elevation gain of a few 100 feet.

Really had to push myself to knock this out tonight. Been working since 5 this morning, and hopped on my bike at about 7:00 p.m., already drained from work with my knees and ankles killing me. Trying to lose 20 pounds, though.

Bruh it HURTS.

I downloaded Strava that’s what y’all be using to track data?

 

[darthska]

^ TONS of people use Strava. I don't. I have a Garmin bike computer, and I just use the Garmin Connect app. Before I had a Garmin, I just used mapmyride.

There are so many apps, man.

 

[Fong$tarr]

So wait. People are paying the $60 fee for the Strava app?

There is a free version. The $5/month is for premium.

Hell nah.

Joint had my heart racing.

I was born in Cali and half that state is built on a damn mountain.

I use to spend my summers there and one day my brother, cousins and I got the bright idea to take on a steep *** hill similar to the ones in this vid. Only difference was our hill was a straight shot and steeper.

Our dumb asses walked up there with our bikes for a good 45 minutes until we got tired than rode down.

I must've hit a good 50 mph that day.

The only reason I estimate it at that speed is because my oldest cousin's father cycled as a hobby. He'd given my cousin his old road bike which was super legit. It was a solid cycle that cost in the 4 figure range.

Anyway, he was in front of us all and his bike had one of those speedometers and it clocked him at 60-65 mph. They're not perfect but they do give a decent ballpark.

Meanwhile, I was on an old BMX purchased from the flea market that had NO BRAKES.

I had to break with my feet to stop from zooming through an intersection. The bottom of those J's was torched after that.

P.S I had no helmet and was 12.
