Only major non 3rd world country without a passable public transit system. Even a LOT of 3rd world countries have a better public transit than America. /n/ just screeches about the US because they're the exception to their supposed tram-filled utopia. The only country which proves public transit is redundant and a waste.

Yes, that is the way you would using it on a trekking bike, flat bars, back at 60-70°. The more aggressive stance a drop bar needs where you go 45°or less down close to horizontal makes the B17 and its variants dig into your parts and limit you while you are pushed out of your position. The B17 is also too wide for that kind of riding.
Switching back to the POS Selle Royal my gravel bike came with made me realize why bikes with drop bars use narrower saddles, measured up my bum bones and got my Aspide, been satisfied with it ever since, picrel

Had a similar one to yours on my older fitness bike (flat bar road bike on fucked up BSO frame) from Selle Italia, S5 Superflow IIRC, turned out all that gel padding made a very uncomfortable ride plus in cold weather it froze my ass off. Avoid anything with any amount of gel padding, regular dense foam padding is much better.

You and I have the exact opposite bodies, lucky.
Higher stem stack and low saddle on a larger frame on account of shortish legs and arms for 6 feet tall but a longer torso. And of course my flexibility is just ordinary. Feels bad man. On an endurance frame the adjustments are less severe but with a good looking racing frame it's unforunate.

Acrylic sellers will be able to CNC cut you a perfect circle in any size with crazy patterns in it. And they sell thin stock. You can zip tie it on a wheel pretty cleanly.

a simple anime disc wheel isn't that hard either although it probably won't be aero.

So long as they are held to the same standard during training and while on the job I have no issue. Untrained female passengers have landed general aviation craft in emergencies with guidance - performing flight in normal conditions is something anyone can learn. But doing so consistently and safely, exercising good judgement, communicating, following the proper procedures, maintaining the right cockpit workspace with CRM, that's what defines a good commercial pilot. Pilots of either sex can have issues with any of these and have an equal potential to learn and improve.

If we're talking about from the coomer perspective typically there's a better selection from the cabin crew and some of the uniforms can be pretty flattering. Standard pilot dress code doesn't do much for me. I'm more into the office lady archetype.

i do have some concerns about female pilots flying a manual reversion on the b737 (there are no hydraulics and you need to put a ton of force on the controls)

there are probably some other ergonomic concerns for mechanics and pilots, but nothing that can't be ironed out with some decent design work that didn't escape the 1950s

(see also: car design - although women are safer drivers overall, they are more likely to be injured in an accident because the seats, airbags and belts are designed for someone who is 170cm and 70kg)

women have been F/As forever and i suppose the upper body strength might be an issue if passengers get fighty but nobody seems to care about that

overall i don't particularly care though, go nuts ig

Do you want to realize 50km out that you forgot to charge your bike and have to use hard gears to get home or even walk half of the way because it is too hard on the inclines?
You will praise mechanical shifters the first time that happens.
>inb4 indexing
Yes, you have to index your mech shifter, takes 2 minutes tops and you have to do it once every couple years or so. Also a badly indexed shifter still works 50km out.

/n/ is full of autists who can't comprehend the human aspect of it. It's impossible to have public transit/density when a certain threshold percentage of the population is openly antisocial/destructive to public property. Sure public transit might be able to survive when less than >1% of people would be willing to piss in the bus, but above that the amount of destruction is just too much.

Basically Americans can't be trusted with nice things, what's the point when some fentanyl freak is going to shit in your shiny new Tram every week? Not to mention these attract gunshots/crime, which discourages people from using it/investing in it.
