>>973565>>973522>>973569Before I saw this i was gonna say the opposite. An /n/ sticky about some used bike buying basics like a quick rundown on different kind of bikes, groupset hierarchy, tells for bike quality and methods for how to test used bikes condition does make sense. Wouldn't that be offensive to the others who inhabit this place though? Kind of like pissing on /n/ to claim out territory. /n/ is charming and idiosyncratic because it isn't simply /n/- bicycles, and wouldn't a permanently top billing bicycles thread be a massive fuck off to all the other people who discuss stuff here?
Hybrids are gay, 10 speeds are too old now, indexed downtube shifter era is the sweet spot for value, single pivot brakes suck, clincher tires should be expensive, 28c is sluggish, brooks are not memes, pros don't normally ride with gloves and neither should you, lyca isn't gay, 2 bottle cages, ebikes are gay, draft strangers, front brake 90%, high cadence.
I don't think we could reach a consensus.
