Culture, well, you could put it like that

Proprietory parts and short service intervals but I am a sucker for Dales! If it puts a smile on your face it's worth it!

I have a Dale myself and having said that, I wouldn't consider anything else

So yeah, there's two of us suckers

What's your discipline, road, CX, XC? Or multiple N+1 and all, but I've managed to avoid that... Just!

I let go of my favourite C60 and Bianchi to keep my forever Bike. A made to order item from the Rockies. Rolls well. Very well.

Well having retired myself from cyclocross racing (at club level), basically sick of the cold winter races! I decided to go down the XC route, as I'm more a technical rider than having roadie speed it made sense, and it's a summer discipline mainly.

I'm a Lefty myself so why shouldn't the bike be?

I've always wanted to ride a Cannondale with a lefty... purely to see how my mind would manage just one fork leg up front! Cannondale bikes always look "fast" to me, especially the Scalpel line.

Moots make some of the best looking bikes in the industry. Is that a Vamoots DR? The Routt 45 is high on my gravel bike wishlist... Really any of their frames would do!

New cassette, oval chainring and chain on the Ripmo. Just crested 1,000 miles on her this past weekend.

Beautiful
It’s an older model Vamoots CR. I went with classical rim brakes for ease of maintaining. The braking track on the Gen2 ENVE rims are almost alloy quality in the dry.

I can’t fault the workmanship. It’s an understated beauty.

Well I'm not nearly as much of a bike nerd as I am a headphone nerd, but I just got a new bike. It's a Giant Roam E+ class 1 ebike with a Yamaha mid motor. It wasn't my FIRST choice (I'd have liked the Explorer E+, a step up in components and motor), but COVID shortages are a bitch and I feel lucky to have gotten my hands on one at all.

I tried out a hub motor one and, though cheaper, I really didn't like the feel of it compared to the mid motor. I've got some upgrades planned, most notably getting a new stem to raise the bars because I'm old and want to be more upright on my casual/exercise rides. But so far, pretty happy with the purchase.

All things considered XC would be my cup of tea, but next time I'm here I should finally take a decent photo of my ride and post it here.

I had a road bike frame custom made about 15 years ago. I asked for the rear brake bridge to be mounted the other way, just because I prefer the look.

Also, there's enough clearance between rear wheel and seat tube to put the pump there.

I have a Rohloff 14-speed hub in this frame. The hub was fairly new on the market at the time and came with a twist grip shifter that fit on mountain bike handlebars. There was no aftermarket shifter for road bike handlebars yet, so I made my own out of wood:

Orange Four. A couple Hope upgrades. I need more than Hope on my side!

Cool bicycle, lots of good wine, moths, lotion for its skin…..

I had at least five memes, but they were all offensive in one way or another

Hello fellow two wheelers, I just love when two hobbies come together like this

I've come upon another Yeti and have had it powder-coated as well as doing some upgrades to my old one with full Carbon rims, Pedals and Crupi Ti rail saddle

Currently building up my 6' 3" (baby Boy) a 29 Redline I had powder-coated like the Yeti by the same coater. Should finish up tonight and will post it up tomorrow, hope everyone is having excellent riding weather
