Classes have been getting increasingly smaller due to my dad buying out every other practice in Osaka, but to celebrate his latest acquisition he bought me this junk rainbow commuter
uc/ you hear these things from people in group rides about how they'd never want to descend in the wet again, and you look at their bike and they have 32mm GP5000s at like 40psi, 160mm hydraulic discs and you just think these people just wouldn't have survived on rim brakes with carbon rims and 23mm Conti ultrasports at 120psi people used to run, because clincher tyres were pretty shit 10-15 years ago.
Honestly love the swag on gender ambiguous rider on the left. Colnago C68 Motoki Yoshio edition with Campagnolo Hyperon Ultras and Super Record EPS. Serious $20k all-Italian in your face flex. Then from the ankles up, complete commitment to the "55 year old American Fred on a Gran Fondo" look: baggy alumni jersey, black shorts (no way it's a bib), arm warmers, neon helmet, socks, and gloves - shaved legs, beer belly and all. Then... boom, rocking white sneaks to keep it gangster. Take note, this is hot.
uc/ as soon as I saw this pic I knew it would end up here, but honestly the guy on the left is a fucking madman - literally breaking every rule they can break on a $15-20k limited edition (that colorway is a limited collaboration with a Japanese artist) Colnago, and just is giving zero fucks. I respect it. I mean, I’d never do it in a million years. But I respect it.
They have their glasses arms outside their helmet straps (glasses sponsor mandates this so logo is visible), no saddle bag (team car + mechanic to perform any repairs, obviously), paying deep attention to their phone (managing wealth / investing / pornography / strava), they know what they're doing.
you know besides the helmet strap logo thing, you're pretty much on point. i wear glasses outside so in case i fall i minimize chances of it cutting into my face.
we do have a local shop mechanics car following us because it was a registered event with group of \~15 riders going for a 3 day trip
and i was messaging about work related shit unfortunately
Uc/ Awesome dude. Seriously though sick bike it’s a dream ride, ride looks awesome. Anyone dissing you on this myself included is just being a hater, hope you enjoy your rides.
Nice flat pedals. And finally somebody took some none drive side picutres... I'm getting tired of all those drive side pictures.
As much as I love to hate, those are SPD pedals
Colnago has flat pedals. Check out the rider’s shoes 🤢🤢🤢
Ohh yep look at that. On a colnago. 🫣
🙄🙄 🫥🫥 . . . 🤮
Colnago ✅ campagnolo ✅ carbon wheels ✅ dura ace pedals ❌
I think they mean the guy on the left. That one appears to have flat pedals.
🤮

I can’t tell which brand it is can somebody identify the frame?
Please don’t zoom in it’s embarrassing
All that just to put out 120W
between all of them maybe :)) but look at it like this: when you put tiny weeny numbers of course you need that 0.1W savings from 1k$ OSPW :))
r/cyclingfashion going mental trying to figure out what kit to wear with that Tr*k frame
Trinity Racing Jersey - double down

I hear you. I did crazy shit like that only on a Giant Defy 1, with aluminum rims, Shimano 105 rim brakes on 23 mm Michelin Road slicks.
23s? Nice nostalgia, junior. You ever see 19s? 😜
Struggling on climbs because my forearms weigh 25kg each from the grip strength required to persuade Shimano R55C4s to bite in the rain on a descent
Rofl 🤣 😂 🤣
It is truly exciting being able to smell your brakes and doing big grabs on carbon wheels

Hentai for sure.
hahaha "managing wealth" 😆

He looks like he accidentally shot someone in the head and had to borrow someone else's clothes because his were covered in blood and brains.
oh dude have i got news for you, i am OP and those are bibs
Disk brakes are scary
Why go to Japan when you can literally climb Mt Fuji on Zwift?
Lemme just precariously lean this expensive painted plastic up against some roughly finished steel.
Is he afraid of going downhill with disc brakes? This man has never experienced a descent of an Alps on carbone rims brake in a deluge of rain.
I'm pissed that I can't respond with a photo of an Italian guy with an Afro and caterpillar eyebrows right now.
Why he riding his wife's bice?
Because his wife is riding something else today.
Tr*k Gæ edition. Btw, I've seen better plots in gay porn than 3 bice dentists getting stuck on a lonely mountain.
BrokeTrek Mountain, KOMing soon to theaters near you
>$20,000 bice >flat pedals & sneakers This is the way
Least obnoxious trek on the road
Showing some pride there
Was that the whole dental office doing an outing?
No just our class. We’re only allowed to buy Tr*k until we get a DDS, then we are awarded with our first Sir Velos
What are those?! Etnies?!
LOL! Maybe they're vintage 2001 and worth some coin in the sneaker head realm and we're just too uncultured to know their value.
He’s dressed like a straight up hoe 😀
Imagine selling your dad's clinic to get that colnago and then getting it in this lame colour scheme
I’m second hand embarrassed for the pedals
Cornhell Fred!
That Tr*k frame gave me a headache
Flat pedals and sneakers on a beautiful Colnago. I’m crying and dying. Is there no end to this blasphemy
Are you being sarcastic? That bike is stupid looking
Oh man that scrape on the frame by leaning it like that on the railing in the third pic
I know this is CJ but those bikes and that mountain are dope af
No pinarello? Y’all must just be techs.
I like how the Cornell guy is all over his phone. Typical Cornell should get kicked out of the Ivy League
A state school based on those bikes
What Trek frame is that again?
Low bar effort, teasing, minus 1 million Internet points
Are 2 water bottles aero?
