THIS!!!
Strava should ban all those silly “workouts”. A walk to the bakery, a 2km ride to say hi to granny, a short commute with an e-bike. Stop it already!
Agreed. There is nothing " clip " about the old clip pedals. All of them were attached by being bolted onto the pedal.
Strapless…
Imagine how the last few decades would have gone had we replaced the word clipless with strapless from the beginning.
Your strapless pedals have shipped.
I think it’s more like it clips your toes in much like a paper clip holds together a stack of paper.
Yeah I get it. I don’t think we want the whole industry saying the word strapless either. Doesn’t sound right.
There shouldn’t even be a ‘kudos’ option on strava for indoor rides.
Mtn bikes that aren’t ‘modern geometry’ still ride great
Road kit mtn biking is more comfortable compared to baggies
The vast majority of people who fatbike (on actually snow trails) aren’t good enough or fit enough to not ruin the trail
You don’t have to wash your bib shorts every time (kidding!)
These will change your life forever. Pull it down low so it sits just above your eyebrows. You’ll never get sweat down your face/eyes again.
Just rub some hand sanitizer on the chamois ![]()
I’m on the opposite side of this one. Gonna run up two flights of stairs? Track it! I’ll give you kudos too haha.
None of this really matters. We’re just old farts with a day job who look weird wearing tights and loud rigid outsoles at the local coffee shop.
Nothing wrong with wearing non-cycling tights OVER bibs either.
Disc brakes are there to keep LBS mechanics in business.
If you’ve got discs, you’ll never need to have a bell on the bike!
If someone asked me what the word hyperbole means, I would show them any post about a dropper post. “I would ride fully rigid before I give up my dropper.” I would ride without a front brake before I give up my dropper." “I would go back rim brakes with 26” wheels before I would give up my dropper." It’s pretty funny. Droppers are great depending on how you ride. I do mostly XC in Texas. I don’t find them very advantageous.
Stop going on about gravel.
It isnt gravel its just mud with a few stones.
He doesn’t do much XC or XCO anymore. He is top tier in terms of endurance and gravel He’s the best right now. The Lifetime GP is probably the biggest endurance series right now, combining MTB and Gravel and he dominated it last year.
EWS? Is that enduro? Keegan doesn’t race enduro so that’s a strange comparison.
White socks should never be worn while cycling and if you pair white socks with black shoes, you should be sent to prison.
Now that has to be an unpopular opinion. White socks on white shoes is so slick. It’s classic.
*and for people who got a really, really good deal on white cycling shoes! : ) Many times per ride, especially when I see other cyclists who look like they know what they’re doing, I strongly feel like getting a custom jersey made with “I GOT A REALLY REALLY GOOD DEAL ON THE SHOES, SHUT UP.” on the back! LOL But seriously. They were on sale bc nobody wanted them! LOL
Increasing the size of your ‘motor’ is the single best upgrade you can make to your bike.
Not even unpopular opinion. Just inconvenient truth. Lol
If you buy an e-bike and you don’t already own a “normal” bike you should be made to prove you can ride safely at speed
