Getting an AM HT is never a bad idea.
I rode a dartmoor hornet for 3 years.
Snappy, confident, hard as fuck.

Personally I only cycle for leisure and commuting purposes.

I like /n/ but occasionally I'd like it to be more, say, "down-to-earth", for the lack of a better word. Sometimes /n/ is too much of a tryhard instead of a regular guy with his baiku.

>backpack
I use panniers for grocery shopping these days. Never looked back. Backpacks are okay in winter but my God all that sweat on your back in summer is insufferable.

I used to stand up until I notice I got a better performance sitting riding up hills.

>My bros who bike in a t shirt and shorts, wear a backpack, wear sneakers and shit like that all welcome

That's me. I just like biking, even today wearing jeans. Thing is you can still bike distance without looking like a complete lycra wannabe pro. I did 30 miles the other day wearing cargo shorts.

Specs of the iconic V-Tail variant which sadly, is no longer in production.

flat bar race bike

How fast does a road race go? How many km/h average over a distance of 100 km?

>>996028
depends on the category, race course and conditions. 4/5 will be anywhere from 20-23 mph, 1/2/3 anywhere from 22-25.

There's no standard. Typically, very fast. Over 20 mph for all cats (men at least). (32/33+ km/h)

you know I can respect a passionate cager
whom I don't respect is a sunday driver cager

>>1013715
I appreciate that and I can dig it, certain respect to be had for a person with genuine passion for what they do. Though I don't have much beef with sunday driver types myself.

>>1013715
Approved.

link?

>>1013360
He's trolling you. It's just a bottom bracket located brake and a copy of the THM fork with the integrated brake in the fork legs.

Drum brake in that small a hub !

If you're buying new parts rather than used, Ultegra is overkill on that bike. 105 works just as well and costs like a third as much.

Start with the number of speeds you have on the rear. You're not going to change that unless you replace more shit than your bike is worth.

And ultegra and even 105 are overkill, as you're not racing.

>>1013025
I'll look into that, I read that 105 is very popular.

OpenTTD dudes

that 3d "simulation" thing they hook up to some exercise bikes at the gym

I bought one like that and mounted it at the top of my stem and bent it so it sat above the handlebars. Like 10 bucks on amazon.

I can post a picture when I get home and hopefully you'll see what I mean if you don't get it.

>dripping sweat onto your phone

I've gone that far on 300 km brevets since I ride to and from the start / finish point. I've used both my touring and road bike and had no problem on either. But my road bike is a Giant Defy, which is not at all aggressive.

Are you planning on doing it solo or with a group? My personal best solo ride is around 230 km. If you want to do long rides look at joining a randonneur club. The club I'm with is small and we usually ride as a group, so there are opportunities to draft and take it easy for a while.

Whichever bike you choose make sure it has GOOD tires and it fits you like a glove, your body will thank you
Longest I've ridden has been like 200km and I was aching all over for the next couple of days

I did one on a caad10 with 25mm tyres

Pretty aggressive geo but was riding with a fast bunch so it was appreciated.

The one thing I can recommend is ensuring you have a wide range of gears, preferably a compact crank and 28 or more teeth on the cassette. I rode standard to 28 and it was horrible, grinding up/putting in extra watts up climbs fatigues you too much for that sort of distance and you will bonk early.

Are you sore because you raced and gave everything you had, or are you sored because you are a weakling?. I'm assuming is the second part, so harden the fuck up and ride until you can get a legit rest.
