    We had a team riding Devel in Australia for a few years. They loved them.

    Good episode. Proof the legs & lungs are things that matter most. Oompa, you need to try Bromo KOM. It’s gonna be fun. By the way, you can ask him to try some gravel bike with fat tires, or even MTB, as he kept on shaking → post-ride syndrome on skinny tires, perhaps? 😁

      Hahahaha he’s shaking even with 30c tires on! Imagine if he rode 25c 120psi. It’ll be a tsunami

      yes I did bromo KOM in 2019. it's crazy and i will be looking to do one of the mainsepeda KOMs for this year. nothing more humbling than seeing a masters on a bike that belongs in the museum, going way faster than you can

      Ya, but when you rim brake mafias see newer rim brakes getting launched, you don’t buy them. Thus, companies stopped offering them and then you all start whining on the internet 🤪

    Honest question. Rim brakes on carbon rails not irritating meh the sandpaper sound when braking? And raining everyday now won't die meh? And go downslope not scary meh?

    Bro.. rule 1 about replacing tires... never swap the front to the back. Change both at the same time. Reason because the wear line is different between the front at back and may cause you to loose grip when cornering.. remember that you steer your front wheel more than your bike where it runs straight most of the time... 😉

    Where can I find the link for the 290mm handlebar? Also, I noticed that you used LTWOO shifters with a 105 rear derailleur, but the bike in the video has 105 shifters. Is there any specific reason for the change? How did the LTWOO shifters perform before switching to the 105 shifters?

    • @totallynotascammer
      @totallynotascammer 22 дні тому +4

      It's the BALUGOE handlebar in AliExpress. The option says 30cm but in actuality it's 29cm :)
      The LTWOO rim brake shifters broke after 1 month of use. The mechanism unfortunately isn't as robust as their disc brake offering.
      It's like a toy which uses a cheap coiled spring mechanism instead of a solid gear system seen in their disc brake shifters :)

      World Tour & Conti Pros ride at speeds that are beyond comprehension sometimes. TV and cameras make it all look very calm and manageable. And it's fair for pros to have disc brakes since they NEED that stopping power.
      Meanwhile, I'm nowhere a WT pro nor Conti pro. The extra faff and potential problems when it comes to the calipers & rotors, I don't see it worth my trouble. And us, at amateur or club level, we don't go that fast!

      Simple answer…..They are paid pro cyclists to cycling anything given by their sponsors…they have to use it,it’s like no choice….pogacar is so strong even if he uses & rides the most slowest team bike in world tour team and using a 105 groupset with a rim brakes,he will still be in front..that’s how really strong he is and the reality of cheap bikes components vs high ends…just a different of a vey small amount of %,not much…it’s like a car without an engine,engine makes the car moves and how strong is the engine makes the car move faster or no..bikes wont go fast by itself,the cyclist is the engine…so if you want to go fast & strong in cycling & dont have much money, you don’t need to buy expensive bikes or upgrade an expensive bikes components to go fast….just upgrade yourself by doing right and proper cycling training & take the right nutrition for long rides
