  1. oh come on. at least flips have some sort of curves going on.

    none of that 'i've seen sheets of paper with more curves than her' east asian 90º shit

    dont confuse oBEASTity with curves. all the flips ive seen in the valley are chubby to some degree...

  2. I'm just going to assume that this was a joke.

    No, its not a joke. Generally a front brake has twice the stopping power according to Sheldon Brown and among other sources I have similar statistics.

  3. Have you tried playing with your seat angle? I know when the angle wasnt right for me I felt alot of pressure on my hands and I would feel fatigued in my arms. However, when I adjusted the seat angle it took alot of pressure off my pressure. Also, if you are feeling stretched, maybe look into pushing your seat forward or backwards. Another thing too would be stem length.

  4. WIth bullhorns, skids are so much easier when you're riding in the actual horn part anyway.

    i would have to disagree. ive ridden ridden flip and chops, bullhorns, riser bars, and drop bars. i found that drop bars were easiest to skid with my hands on the top contour section. im not gonna knock bullhorns just yet, i want to try a shorter stem/bullhorn setup when i get the chance to see if i can get the same effect that i have with drops.

  5. He will not win. Its the bay area, bicycles and pedestrians have priority over cars. I remember walking across the street in SF, dude cuts me off so I slap his rear window open palmed. He skids to a stop in the middle of the intersection, gets out of his car and tackles me. Three huge men come over and pull the dude off to the side and I walk off and look behind me and the dudes are yelling at him and look as if they were going to kill the man. As I am walking back to work, a motorcycle police officer pulls up to the scene. Fuck motorists.

  6. any recommendations for a saddle that comes in celeste green? I'm looking to repaint the ride and am thinking of a saddle and bar tape in celeste to go with the rest of it.
