Stem advice (lemmy.world)
submitted 5 months ago by ape_arms@lemmy.world to c/bicycling@lemmy.world

Anyone have a method for determining the best stem length and rise? I'm a casual road cyclist and I feel like I have too much weight on my hands, noticable more on longer rides. I kinda feel like it should be an inch (2-3 cm) shorter, but not sure how rise would impact that. How do I go about finding whats right without trying 4 or 5 stems? Any help is appreciated!

I recently went to the Bird's Nest on Altgeld on a rec that they had the best wings in Chicago. Now, I'm no wings connoisseur, but they were pretty great. However, wings are not something I usually order. Anyone else been there for wings, and can you confirm or deny if these are in fact the shit?

I wonder if they made the lane long to allow for more merging options with the bike lane. I wouldn't want to be in that bike lane, but it may be safer with a longer lane ( at least in theory).

I'm not sure if this counts. Pop art from the '90s.

It is comforting to think of Trump as an idiot, and he may be, but don't disregard that he has consistently shown that he is superb at manipulating systems. This strategy is the M.O. of the wealthy who can afford legal fees and cheat the system over and over and over again. Every one of these judicial ploys seems ridiculous in itself, but taken together, they show how he can just delay/bog down the system to HIS advantage. The courts have to play by the rules, were he does not. This guy will never serve time. The only way he would is if he pissed off OTHER WEALTHY PEOPLE.

There's a button you can use use to mark NSFW posts. You should learn how to use it.

One thing to consider for both of these guys is that they are ancient. Like, either one could kick the bucket six months before election day. I hope the dems have a serious backup plan.

Still 35k. Automakers are only interested in milking the EV market, not making EVs for most of us. It seems like it would be less expensive to engineer/produce evs since the they are mechanically less complex. Any engineers out there that can verify this?

Yes...the old B17. It was a rough break in, but now I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I moved back to gears after riding the last ten years on a single speed. Just greased all bottom bracket parts and crankset with custom lubricant my friend is piloting. A little science experiement!

Is there any legitimacy to the claims that the Ukrainians want to disassemble these munitions to use as drone bombs? I suppose time will tell and no assurances have been made that this is the case.

It's still in stores by me, but for some reason they changed the name to "fuel" or "marine stove fuel". I had to ask last time I went because I couldn't find it either.

I tried subbing to the one on Lemmy.world, but nobody's home. Perhaps there is one someone can rec from another instance? Any help is appreciated!
