Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

This thread is wasted on me.

I just like bikes. Ugly ones are endearing.

Not only can you swap them right out. But thats a standard rear shock. So can simply swap that bit out any number of replacements to tune your ride. Its an amazing bike, if somewhat overdone. I mean each time you point it down a gravel decent. A part you you is going to be thinking you should ride around, and not risk damaging the horribly expensive fork legs, or other carbon bits.

....when you should be thinking weeeeeeeee!

Ohhh, I think linkage forks have dies a death for a reason. I have owned these:

and my friend has owned some of these:

Both of which have been decent enough for a couple of years, untill the linkages wear. The slop in both forks was just silly. The AMP forks were very flexy and stuttery under breaking. Obviously technology has improved and you would hope that those forks on that Moots would be better made.

Telescopic all the way I reckon.

replacable linkages would be the cure.

But yeah. For steering, and climbing stiffness. No thanks.

Spotted on FB. Ugh..

Did no one noticed how stupidly low his seatpost is?...
Raise the seat, get yourself more Aero. Without hitting your chin.
His legs are all bent.

Otherwise he needs this.

Strikes me as the kinda guy that's probably been told all this but thinks he knows best.

Several top testers have been to the wind tunnel (or done virtual CdA testing) and found that lowering the seat makes them more aero

How about those pedals? I think they're about 150 quid for essentially a mini skateboard for a pedal. What a waste.

That GT is rad^max
