I will have to take some pics of my two current project bikes tomorrow.
Both full squish Stumpy's. Ones a 26er and the other a 650b

Forgot about this thread. I retired the old '97 GT road bike and picked up this Cannondale Carbon 3L just over a year ago. Put over 3K klm's in that time. Not quite as fast as my GT but 22 speed helps with the hilly terrain around here.

Holy crap are those expensive.

Was $4,200 up here, north of the border. Only found 3 (in my size 51cm) in the country from the online seller I was dealing with. None locally.
10-4 on the Canada thing, makes sense. I have a buddy in TO and he tells me how expensive everything is up there.

Crazy! Looks like your ready for the Tour de France! I really don't know what I'm looking at but it looks serious.

It is a Canyon time trial bike. If you want to haul serious ass, this is the bike you want.

How do you like the hyrdapac bladder? Does the water warm up on long rides? I use a camelback and fill with ice...

I am not a fan. It only holds 500ml and I cannot put sports drink in it because I wont be able to get it clean. I also have a Trek Speed Concept which I mounted a cage in between the armrests, which is way better. The Canyon is a faster bike though.

My wife has a stryde. I thought it was meh until I tried it. It sure is better than the abuse my body takes trying to do p90x.

as for a bicycle, I have a beat to heck Nel lusso used pos from some lady on fb market place. I enjoy riding the neighbor hood because I lived on a major highway when I was young so I never got to do that.

The Carbon is going to be a full build and I have most of the components for it. The comp needs basic maintenance and suspension rebuild

I'm thinking about giving up mountain biking. I head butted a boulder the other day and I'm pretty sure my helmet saved me from a skull fracture since it cracked the shell of my helmet.
I just don't get it. I've been a BMXer most of my life and can do things on a bike most people can't, but I keep crashing the mountain bike.

Don’t quit.

Try a 27.5+ tired bike and air down to go slower.

I quit mountain biking after breaking my wrist twice in a year.

How about cyclo/gravel/fat tire?
