How to Not Feel Stupid Walking Into a Bike Shop
The mere fact that this post exists on pinkbikes main page speaks so much to the toxic culture in bike shops towards new customers who know nothing about bikes or people who know a little bit. A bike shop should be a welcoming understanding place to bring people into the wonderful world of cycling.
This thread shouldn't exist it should be a post to bike shop employees and owners to stop being so Effin snobby and condescending.

Five Things We (Sometimes) Miss About Older Bikes
pretty confusing.
internal cable routing is fine.
i don't have to charge my bike. its a 2023
adjusting stuff on the fly sucks make your bike set up for how you are riding.
derailleur guards are dumb. lets bring back bars with bolt on cross bars too.
I have a bash guard taco and upper chain guide. ONEUP? light and quiet.
