12 speed instead of 10 speed. Sequential or compensating shifting.

Thanks EW :tiphat:

No cables connected to the derailleurs... just looks wrong. :rofl2:

I like my mechanical shifting but it's got internal cable routing. It can be a bitch to change cables.

For a road bike, yea. For a MT bike. I wouldn't want it. When you're miles from no where in the deep sticks. I can fix a cable. That, I don't think so.

The lighter the bike. The more is costs. I've looked at bikes that were 10 grand plus. :icon14:

If you break a cable on the rear derailleur, you can rig it up to stay in one gear if you're mechanically inclined. If not, it defaults to the highest gear (smallest cog). If the battery goes dead on the rear derailleur on electronic shifting, you can use the battery from the front derailleur which doesn't get as much use as the rear and should be pretty much fully charged. That is, if you charged the batteries before you left. :rofl2:

My bike has close to 10k in parts on it and it weighs 15lbs. Not super light but it's an aero frame which is a little heavier along with 44mm wheels which adds more weight than a shallow wheel. And a power meter that's built into the crankset. I prefer a stiff frame with a stiff bottom bracket over a super light but flexy frame.

Goes faster than EW's Z.

Don’t hold your breath on a reply this early :stirthepot:

That's what I use in the garage and my job trailer. Melissa just found 2 used ones for $50 in perfect shape. I think 1 was never used and the other used only a handful of times.

Impressive on the bench. I'm about to hit 300 again, last time was in 2016. My bench really dropped when I shed a lot of weight, took a while to get it back. Pushing weight was much easier for me when I was over 200. I build deadlift and squat weight very easily, bench has always been more of a challenge. Currently running 9-12 miles per week.

Now my 'little' brother Joe on the other hand does multi rep sets in the 350s and is aiming for the 400 mark before he plateaus. But his legs and cardio are weaksauce.

Good Friday Morning All. YES IT'S FRIDAY!!! :happydance: 74* for a high today with yet again 0% chance of rain. :icon14: Mexican Food is on the menu for tonight to keep the Mrs happy. Going to get rocking guys so off to the gym. Have a good one. Stay Safe, Stay Positive and Keep Washing Those Hands. Zoren get well Soon!! :tup:

Dropping to 33° here tonight.

I have a culinary degree. 7 courses is just tricky from a time management perspective. It can be done, but the dishes would be based more on timing to make and send out than it would be about the overall flavor.

El cheapo 6500k LED's off of amazon.

I will check them out. ty

And I still have the burn marks to prove it.

Morning and hola itcheZ! Colder than a witch's ballsack here. Taking the pup in to get spayed today.

The generator has been running for the last 2 & 1/2 hours don’t know exactly why but am sure am glad to have it ! The wife is leaving for Columbus Ohio in a couple of hours and it would have been a little stressful without power :eek: no shower ( on a well ) no hair dryer :eek::eek::eek: :tup: party on...

Good morning everyone!:hello:Kinda' cool here this morning also.Supposed to get frost tomorrow morning.:ugh2:Have a great day folks!:tup:

Why? Is that when Spoiler said he could deep throat again????

When I was at Elliott. Elliott had gotten a Corporate membership at the local YMCA. The one machinist there. His goal was to hit 400 lbs. He said once he hits it. He's done. He hit 400 lbs, and quit. Just walked away from it. Never went back. :icon14: He was all upper body. No legs. :rofl2:

Happy Friday everyone :woot:

FTFY :ugh2:

Nah... I picked it up on eBay about 6 years after the movie came out. Pretty sure Mr. Reubens needed the money after his run-in with the law in that Florida adult movie theater :icon17:

All this talk about lifting weights and working out is making me tired..... and reminding me that I really should get back into the dojo....:icon14::icon14:

I think I'll just start with doing more walking.... it's easier on the brain. I don't have to remember all the katas and forms, just one foot in front of the other. Gotta keep it simple for this crayon-eater......:inoutroflpuke::inoutroflpuke:
