An entry level new bike, that is agreeable to ride, not dragged down by antiquated standards like QR, that you won't regret buying, nor immediately feel the urge to swap out half the components because of cut corners, cost approximately USD $1500 at standard retail prices as of late 2024, give or take a few hundred (depending on the finer details).

Now, the prices are going to go up by at least 20%, and the smaller independent brands are going to go under as only the largest players will have the spare cash to ride out the sudden loss of consumer confidence. The most interesting and original bike products will simply disappear from the market permanently until the next wave of prosperity (which may be entirely concentrated somewhere far away and foreign, so that only the wealthiest of your peers will be able to import and use such goods).

How does that make /n/ feel?

>Bike Training
Not sure if this is better on /fit/ or here but I assume I'll get probably less shittier posts here. How are you handling training in the winter? I've been forcing myself to zwift more and I have no idea how people do races so frequently where they can do 2-3x a week.

Autistic railfans side with Brightline trains over the people they kill

> As a train enthusiast, none of these are brightlines fault. The only reason they have so many deaths are because of people doing stupid things around the tracks like trying to beat the train, or walking on the tracks.
Do you autists not realize how sociopathic this makes you look?
The train has killed over 180 people since 2017.
It's killing a person EVERY THIRTEEN DAYS.

>27.5 x 1.60 (650b x 40)
>1000 miles in
>pulled a few glass shards out
>extracted a broken glass bottle shard that was wedged 6mm in the tread at an angle
>no punctured tube
>no flat
>rolls great
>doesn't weigh as much as a Marathon Plus or Mondial
>installing them wasn't too bad either
What's your daily driver? Do you run tubed or tubeless? General thoughts, experiences of tires you've ran with?

bike computers

No.2039903 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
I am currently using a xiaomi smart band 9 to track my rides (so thats GPS from phone + HR from band), I start and end the ride from the band and the app automatically transfers the route, speed and heart rate to strava
I am wondering if I should upgrade to a bike computer cus I am not worried about how much calories I burn nowadays, as I got the idea of it. I just want to know how far I went and how long it took me, and to keep track of cadence so I learn to ride optimally
I have been looking at XOSS G2+ (pic related) with 2 sensors - one for cadence on crank and other on rear hub for speed (rotation)
my questions about bike computers in general are:
>do the bike computer accessories (cadence, speed, HR) connect to it, or to the phone
>does only the bike computer connect to your phone and stay connected constantly, or only to transfer data to strava or an app once the ride finishes?
>can I just get on my bike and ride, and the bike computer will then automatically upload my ride to strava once I am done?
>can I still use my xiaomi band 9 to measure my HR? will I be able to see my HR on the screen? or the bike computer only connects to HR sensors and not other "smart" devices
>should I get a bike computer with an actual screen to show maps/route?
>should I even get a bike computer to begin with, I am riding actual gravel and trails, basically exploring my region on weekends and driving 2-3 times to work a week, will the sensors and shit survive the rough terrain?
>will my mechanical watch (8 year old skx007) get fucked by the vibrations from the single/double track?
Thanks
