>>1210273Biopace and friction work well together. 90s mtb became a meme because everyone was asking "I got $150 wut bike" and the supply of cheap decent OTSes had dried up. Dick breaks and TAs are perfectly viable for a touring build. If you're concerned about replacing a tacoed wheel in bumfuck, get a salsa with alternator plates and a qr front fork, I guess. Then you can turn your bike into a singlspeed if your derailer blows up. And I don't know why I typed all this out instead of just calling you a dumb fag.
