/BQG/ - Bike Questions General

No.891695 ViewReplyLast 50ReportDelete
Last one is kil.

So I have a 39/53 + 11-32. Is there some reason that I shouldn't/wouldn't want to convert to 1x11? A 48t chainring and SRAM 10-42 cassette gives me almost exactly the same range (in fact, 48/42 is lower than 39/32).

Where Do I Learn About Bikes

No.885394 ViewReplyReportDelete
>Inb4 lurk more/buy one it'll learn you

I need to know what I'm looking for before I can figure everything out for myself, and no QTDDTOT threads had these questions, and no threads had this question, so

Where can I learn the basics of what to look for in a new bike, where to draw the line on rebuilding a used bike(buy a 90's rigid frame MTB hurr), when to consider upgrading?

I lost my car due to an accident and am so poorfag that I am not getting any replacement for a good month and a half. Currently I walk 12 miles(in America) to and from work, an hour and a half commute, in a large town of over 50,000 and no public transit.

>largest hills are maybe 40ft in gradual grade slopes suited for vehicle travel

>quickest commute and probably only easy route involves shoulder travel where no sidewalk exists at points with gravel and knee high grass

>paved roads the entire way but unless it's not heavy traffic I stay on the side away from cars because I'm not suicidal

This could be considered a 'what bike style for me' and a 'how the fuck do I learn more' thread. I understand mountain bikes are not suited for roads, cyclocross bikes are suited for a little of both and road bikes are suited for.. roads.

I'm relatively fit, male, 5'11 and carry about 40lbs cargo to and from my work, including a uniform.

If this is not at all the place to ask, please direct me somewhere to get the fuck out instead of just telling me to get the fuck out.

Pic related is me on my average commute. Also I will be riding night rides regularly and my budget is around $200. Poorfag.

Sup /n/

I'm wanting to strip an old cr-mo frame and clear coat the bare steel. I've heard it's a bit more involved than that though.

Is it worth it? If not, are there any interesting paints, etc. that I could put on?
