Yes, I know, for some it's actually one thing (envy you!), but I guess many know what I mean, so a long story short:
That 130mm Jaguar with deep drops, super high seatpost with superlight saddle, the 23c tyres, all for the looks - or give a shit and use those risers and take it all a bit more easy?
How do you handle it? HTFU or just enjoy life? Who's giving in, you, or your bike/style?
How many of you actually own a 'show' bike that is more or less not ridden, and something less cool that is the secret everyday bike?
