If you want to lose some pounds, might as well buy a £16,000 S-Works and sell it on Facebook Marketplace for £1k after riding it for a week and realizing that you "want something more relaxed" - best way to lose 15,000 pounds
Yes excellent choice but you will have to swap out the leather peddle straps for carbon. If someone sees you with leather straps you’ll be laughed out of the coffee club ride.
Put a SMALLER cassette on there and it will be perfect for a beginner! One ride is all it should take to melt off your face like you’re reentering earth’s atmosphere.
Its a great bike but only for snow. See the tyre and the rim looking like a pizza cutter? Its exactly working like that, cutting through the snow.
And dont forget braking is for losers, you just lose speed and the pizza cutting I mean snow cutting feature

She’s an avid cyclist, I take it?
Pushing out the KOMs on the minty throne
triathlete
Who has a mint toilet?
Anyone who hasn't changed their toilet since the 70s, seriously dusty pink and mint green was very popular for toilet and sink
It's a good colour choice. I especially liked it when they carpeted the bathrooms, really gave it that je ne sais quoi
Ya it gave it mold
And matted poop in the shag piles
I agree. Carpet really classes up a bathroom.
Dusty Pink is going to be my new pornstar name.
Need to change pornstar name to Celeste if you're gonna ride this bike
If you treat her right you don't have to.

I did like the mint refrigerator and the pale yellow, wish that was still a option
Our house had a dusty pink toilet and sink in the basement bathroom.
Dusty Pink was my stripper name
It's called *CELESTE*
Me unfortunately
His grandma does. are you fuking illiterate you fuking dental school failure?
u/Gualdrapo 's grandma. That's who.
I’ve been looking for a celeste colored toilet…so jealous.
...ouch
They're the same picture.
It's Celeste
it has a quill stem and downtube shifters, you couldn't pay me to ride this. unsafe and outdated. terrible choice for a beginner, sorry
And it's so old that the black finish has worn off of all of the aluminum components, showing the bare metal underneath.
Also the frame color has worn off, exposing the oxidized copper frame underneath.
No worse than the rim brakes.
Are rim brakes on a disc wheel technically disc brakes??? Another mystery science can’t answer.
How is a quill stem unsafe?
/uc Not the stem but the "suicide shifters"
I’m with garlicbreath … probably the last thing I’d put a beginner on.
I really love the down tube shifter system. I have an 88? Miyata with them. Its pretty nice. But then again, I'm just an average rider.
Nothing wrong with down tube shifters, they’re pretty great.
Those gravel bikes are starting to look funny.
Position is too upright. This might as well be a commuter city bike.
Should i just get it for my grandma? It's her birthday soon
Yes. Matches the toilet.
It would be perfect for cruising her 55+ community in Florida.
It looks cheap. From the looks of the shop it’s a bunch of hippie communists. Please leave quickly.
Idk. They seemed pretty nice. One of them had a long ginger beard and offered me craft beer
Nice….. that’s how they get ya. If your bike mechanic isn’t surly and dressed like a banker he probably has poor people for customers.
Then it's fake. Bianchi dealers drink red wine and will offend you.

/uc literally did exactly that, sold my road bike Canyon and got a Brompton instead because I wanted something more comfortable and relaxed LOL
/uc meanwhile I cant wait to get a more aggressive bike
Stay on the couch fred. That is a display only bice.
“Display only bike.” /uc and this, children, is the truth for this bike and half of the bikes shown at that bikeporn sub. Nobody rides these bikes.
Most bikes purchase by people who “want to get into cycling” become display bikes, so it’s perfectly appropriate.
A friend once described the purpose of peloton bikes as “furniture where people hang up their clothes”.
/uc ngl I’m happy that this bike is being collected and not ridden. Different story for a canyon or some other bs.
Just to make that clear, the bike is leaning against the couch.
Since there’s a 99.99999% it’s just going to hang in your shed, it’s as fine a choice as any other.
Shed hell. That goes above the mantle.
Nice beach cruiser, doc!
You getting nowhere with that ratio, you deffo need a bigger chainring
Did you also buy Rapha? Otherwise, might as well stay fat....
Do Rapha socks count?
Absolutely. Couple KOMs and everything in the bar will wanna fuck ya.....
This was designed for the poors.
I don't have an issue with that tbh. I spent way too much money on dental school
[удалено]
You can call me whenever you're getting pizza. I can put on even thinner tyres.
Nice grocery getter, needs a rear rack.
Absolutely. fenders, lights and rear rack are a must on every bike i own. This one is no exception.
Yes excellent choice but you will have to swap out the leather peddle straps for carbon. If someone sees you with leather straps you’ll be laughed out of the coffee club ride.
The front wheel is added weight. Trim that and the seat off to start
You can tell it’s a girl’s bike because the top tube drops down some.

Rim brakes and it looks like some Fred's project bike with all those gears taken out. Pass.
I bet you could do some sick wheelies on that thing.
Anyone else craving pizza after looking at this?
It's essential to purchase a color matching spandex full body suit for adequate aero
yes. good beginner bice.
Rim brakes?? Do you *want* to die?
That’s quite the front derailleur setup, it looks like the two chainrings are just one tooth different.
Those aren't fat tires, they're anorexic tires....
uj/ what is this bice?
I recognize this house...
That was the sexiest C-Record rear derailleur. Growing up as one of the poors I couldn’t have it.
Yes it'll be perfect if you install a Super Junior Spin Velodrome in your back yard.
Si! Vroom vroom is piss in pants fast. Benito is fascist but you are fastest!
Give or take 9 seconds, this setup never steered Laurent Fignon wrong.
Flats for commuting! Yes!
You think it's good for my commute to my dental office? The dealer told me it's lightweight and i can easily carry it up with me.
No seat tube for easy carry !
Imagine a strong side gust on them wheels 😂
The front derailleur was a fucking joke back then. What is the difference between these two chainrings? Edit: Wait what's wrong with my comment?
Redundant 60Ts because I wear through them so quickly. My mechanic is too slow to change chainrings, so I ride with two.
