Opinion: Helping, Being Helped & Debt - World Mental Health Day 2020
@nyhc00:
If mental health were as simple as drowning then sweet, but it isn’t.
And your point of view on the matter, along with most peoples. Is part of the problem.
I hear drowning is nice though.

Pinkbike Poll: Which Foot Do You Ride With Forward?
It’s cuz if anyone ever did a lap of anything in their life since childhood.
Running, nascar, Skating around an ice rink, roller rink, whatever.
It was to the left.

@mollow: that’s sweet bud. You’re standing in the way of progress and acting like I’m the dick.
Good thing it’s only bike parts or you’d be a real problem.

@mollow: usually when people don’t notice things that other people do. It’s the person that doesn’t notice that’s just settling for something that could be better.
So congratulations on your ability to be happy with mediocre.
Myself I am not and I’ve had my junk all over your shifters.

@mollow: no you’re just jumping into a comment that wasn’t directed at you. And you’re missing the plot.
I understand how the shifter works in its entirety. Shifts great. Poor ergonomics.

@mollow: you know how I know you don’t know where your shifter and brake controls should be?
Because I’m trying to talk about where your shifter and brake controls should be.
And you’re trying to talk about how I’m a troll.

@mollow: I’m not sure why you’re defending the function of a product that could easily have been made more ergonomic.
I know you can shift with your finger.
But what would be even better is if the shifter paddles were where your thumb wants to be. Pretty simple that you want to separate your shifting and braking digits.

@conoat: that finger is for braking.
That finger is only for braking. If you don’t know what that fingers for.
You don’t know what fingers are for.
And you could be way better at biking if you fingered it out.

Good cuz the old one was a joke. How did they think anyone’s thumbs worked like that? How did any test rider give that the thumbs up? Cuz they’re just in it for the free shit?
And the amount of people saying “oh it’s okay you get used to it” just cuz they want to be 100% behind their purchase.
