I leave 3 inches of slack ever since I went into the Woodward foam pit head first and my helmet strap nearly choked me out. Plus it's a 26, the rollover is so bad compared to 650b that on rocks you are barely moving

Because rich people are attractive, and since mexico is a fucked up third world country with massive inequality, people who can afford carbon fiber bikes in mexico tend to be stupendously rich and thus very well taken care of.

Seriously. Kelly square gets all the flack for being a seven way intersection of anarchy, but Lincoln square is worse if you don't know what you're doing.

There's some steel is reel meme rigids and hardtails, but that just shows you that they cater to retrogrouchy people. In a full susser, there's no disadvantage to stiffness. You don't want frame flex to absorb shock, you want your tuned suspension system t do it.

Probably ~2/3's the weight of an equivalent steel frameset, which is probably a bigger difference in weight than going from hiten shit to nice steel.

thoughts? concerns? is there anything better for turning signals i could get for my electric assist bicycle?

i was using a home made blinker that i made with a project box, a couple of 555 timers and transistors and a 3 way switch on my handlebar but that got stolen when they failed to take my whole bike, which i now fold up and take with me into businesses and work.
