Hey lads saw a neat bike today at the LBS. Masi Randonneur Speciale 650b...1850 usd. Nice columbus tubing, full fenders and designed for these weirdo baloony wtb 650b tanwalls...

Masis have been shipping with these leglet 48t cranks but on this one it makes a bit more sense.

Do you know what this meme is supposed to mean at all or are you such a frail example of a human being that pushing a 48t chainring downhill is really endangering your joints?

I liked it. I went to my bike shop today and it caught my eye.

Idk if it would beat a marin 4 corners or lht for touring but it was a QT3.14.

I thought we'd want to talk about bikes and seeing a Masi in a pandemic was a shocker.

I ride 46/30T and it is just perfect for my area where 12-18% climbs are the norm

I have 40T in the back because 34T on slippy gravel and dirt climbs wasn't enough

Well don’t tell exactly, i‘m just curious where you have these gradients as a norm. Certainly not in any major mountain range on significant roads.

>on significant roads
Did I tell you anywhere I ride on the road? That is a fucking massacre, going on the road inside the village is already fucking suicide!
I ride gravel and dirt roads, forest trails, the most roadie resembling is bike paths, paved or compacted

Ok retard listen up: XX/YY denotes a chainring set. YYxZZ denotes a gear combo. WW-UU denotes a cogset. XX/YY x WW-UU is the entire gearing of a bicycle.
