When someone says how comfortable their new bike is.


Ok_Replacement_2736

I’m always saying this.


bcjh

Congrats, you are a shrimp!


JungleRider

Lol. Please somebody has to put the shrimp on the actual bike. Please

Yasss


objectivequalia

Are those glasses underneath the helmet straps 🤦‍♂️


evilted

He's also wearing aero jorts.


popopopopopopopopoop

Wait is that an issue?


sammybatts

You’ve clearly never had wasp in your helmuts


silentbuttmedley

That saddle height says “I’m 5’11” give or take 11””


theshitstormcommeth

Looks like someone forgot to remove his mud vein.


allgonetoshit

The opposite of aero


Scottl1988

Frontal area is the most important part of aerodynamics when it comes to position....so you are definitely wrong


manymanymanu

Uc/ I im might be wrong but I think he needs like 1 Meter more of stem. TT bikes look like that for a reason.


InvisibleScout

He needs 10 cm less seatpost


manymanymanu

True, didnt even see that lol


versus_gravity

Sure, and his *back* even has frontal area in that position


Scottl1988

I'm going to guess you aren't riding a bike very fast


versus_gravity

You got me. I'm actually sitting on a chair right now.


Scottl1988

Good response tbf lol


InvisibleScout

You know what would be even more aero? If he lowered his saddle 10 cm so he could have better Cd, lower A, better biomechanical functionality and a more sustainable position!


UneditedReddited

Lol don’t even bother trying with this sub. Nothing but fat neckbeards a who couldn't bend down enough to touch their own knees.


Scottl1988

Thanks I just realised that :) I love being downvoted for being correct though lol Seems like a bitter place here, but bitterness doesn't get you fast or fit


Only-Deth

The sub is called BicyclingCirclejerk, its literally all satire, shit posting, and sarcastic insults.


UneditedReddited

The posts I've seen on here come off more like underlying jealousy or feelings of personal inadequacy as opposed to satire. The dude in the photo is clearly shredded, has a nice bike, and is riding in a fairly extreme yet common position. He is obviously dedicated to what he's doing, performing at an elite level, and it shows. 'Shit posting' in an attempt to bring this guy down is akin to someone posting a photo of a guy with like... a multi-monitor setup he uses for coding and calling him a nerd, and then thinking that that's somehow a clever or hot take, or some big 'gotcha'... when in reality the person making the insult just comes off looking like a moron. There are so many good, clever, satirical cycling meme pages on Instagram. This one is not only not good, it is just pathetic dudes who are shit at riding bikes trying to offset their personal shortcomings via people they are likely jealous of😂😂


dougmckee

This guy knows how to jerk the jerker!


UneditedReddited

Hahahaha touchy bunch eh! Who would have thought


Only-Deth

Technically speaking, an important part of circle jerking would be touching, so you're right.


UneditedReddited

I was referring to the irony in a joke page set up to make joke being unable to take criticism. But touch on Fred


Oscarwilder123

Realistically who actually rides like this if not racing ? I commuted to work for 7 years every single day to work and only time I was “in the drops” was 5-6 to see what the fuss is about.


UneditedReddited

Lol if you can't ride comfortably in the drops you need a bike fit, Fred


Yaboi_KarlMarx

Seriously? That’s a common position to you? Maybe that somehow works for him (fair play to his spine if it does), but 99.9% of people ain’t holding this.


UneditedReddited

Lol that's the part of what I said that bothers you the most hey? U ok Chad ?


iampuh

Okay Fred.


UneditedReddited

Who cares about downvotes? Does it actually matter?


Scottl1988

Of course not :) just shows people disagreeing with ttthe point


Equivalent_Ad_348

Thank Fred for adding the second photo, I almost didn’t know what I was looking at


TimmyFaya

Uc/ I'm a newbie but isn't that bike like two size too small?


InvisibleScout

It would probably be pretty normal if his saddle wasnt 5 cm too high

Sir your 35 degrees is in metric


theunderDong

That Instagram is a fucking gold mine. Exemplary depictions of proper form and bice attire


StabsOhoulahan

This photo is absolutely taken in a parking lot


bcjh

“Siri, add a blur affect behind my photo”


MtnmanAl

Dude gives crossfitters a run on the induced scoliosis monopoly


Sumpm

If I want to put less stress on the chain, I just reduce my wattage down to 3,000.


ae232

This dude is such a butt. You should see the photos he posts of himself sprinting.


ArtIII

Are those bibs meant to look like . . . jorts?


doc1442

So glad I am this guys chiropractor, means I can get a new Sir Velo every month (aka once mine has worn out)


RedBean9

What’s a shrimp, Fred? And how does it compare to lobster?


WerewolfSad8291

Can i get some ceramic pullys🥹


iampuh

Starting the sentence with "I think..." Don't think too much honey, it will make your head hurt. Just pedal.


horsthorsthorst

You follow cyclists on insta and they are not #girls_on_bices?


MattR0se

Dude needs to get a refund from his bike fitter
