Like the good old days…. And if you can do it on rim brakes, mech shifting, tires with tubes, and no-wax chain, then you’ll really be stylin’

I’ve got an old bike in the garage that checks all those boxes just for that reason.

Well, let me know if you want to go for a old-school ride anytime. I’m all set up too (except I still need to roll back my chain to oil based lube) 
Oh, no aero socks, please!

The Garmin straps were only lasting me about 6 months before dying. I sweat a lot, and rarely wash them. Then I switched to the cheap Coospo ones from Amazon, and they last about two years each. I’m on my third now, and they’ve been great.

I have 4 straps that I use for a few rides then I wash them. They are all the cheap generic straps from amazon or Alix. After every ride I rinse the strap and hangout to dry. I pop the hrm off and give it a quick rinse to get all the sweat off. I’m still using my first gen wahoo hrmfrom 2018. I eat a fair amount of salt in my diet too.
