Yes, riding gummy-feeling cable actuated disc brakes makes you a better cyclist because you can barely stop but you still have all the annoyances of a braking system that you can't fix with a claw hammer and a tub of yak butter

It's a unisex gravel mixte, you ignorant baboon. It is technically superior in terms of compliance and usability. There is zero reason to have a higher top tube

Men don't ride "mixties" outside of clogland. If you want that type of fit just use a undersized MTB. There's no reason to need a girls bike.

Is it just me, or are these triangle frames designed to be able to take less force than a regular designed bicycle? What's the point other than you can drop your saddle further?

Compliance in the seat tube/post. Built in suspension from springy steel

>>1437280 he can literally drink out of none of the bottles mounted to his frame without stopping first or reaching right behind the fork and tire. he's had to resort to mounting a klean kanteen to his bars, which he still can't drink out of because you have to unscrew it

if you have only one bottle cage mounted to your bike you clearly do not ride far enough at a time for frame compliance to be an issue

seatposts are aluminum. significant enough flex to notice=fatigue & failure. seatposts that long and seat tubes made for seatposts that long have to be significantly thicker and heavier to work around the fact that they aren't being supported by a triangulated frame. this makes for a heavier and less compliant frame, not more

Bruh they're literally designing aluminum seatposts to flex now. Giant D-Fuse for instance
