Old bike tech still going strong!

Bit of a shameless auto-celebration, but I am really surprised on how well my Canyon Ultimate rim performed on the fast segments on today's ride.
I guess some old tech is still really good! Btw the Lun Hyper wheels are fantastic!

Whatever the exposed cable penalty is, it isn't more than rotors/calipers.👍Wear aero gear, maybe put some narrow aero bars on, deeper wheels and you'll fly. Aero bottles?

[@fede1275]

Definitely wearing aero kit is the most beneficial, together with the bars

[@Nehpets1701G]

It's called the Ultimate for a reason - I love my one!

You know you are engine 🦿🦿no matter what bike you ride💥🚴🏻‍♂️💨💨💨💨

Nice ride dude, I can feel the fizz of excitement🤟🚴🚴🚴

Everything you said are thing to AVOID. Avoid hookless rims, integrated handlebars and custom shaped seat tubes. If you want to stay alive that is and also repair something .

[@fede1275]

I am guiltily to an integrated handlebar though, looks very good. No internal cables make it easier to live with

[@barryherron5351]

Representing, why replace a bike with a new bike if there's nothing wrong with your old bike?

[@fede1275]

It's just that I don't like it when new tech must mean that the old bikes have become immediately slower. Not the case just yet

[@manuelluis5456]

Rim brakes fail b/c. the sellers put oil the rim to make it shine and more easy to sell .

[@trajtemberg]

I've seen so many people use silicon based products to shine up their bikes, tracks included, and then blame it on them rim brakes.

Give hope to cable rimbrks...... ❤ by the way..... very good time!

[@elmertolentino-gm2mf]

Very nice 👌 🎉

It's not the bike it's the dude pedalling the bike that's fast or not.

Traditional technology is much better.

[@fede1275]

New tech does not mean old one stopped working 😀

[@lanceblack888]

@@fede1275 New technology is more expensive, more complex, less reliable, adds unnecessary weight and is slower! It’s anti-progress, but very profitable for bike companies 😎

[@albertosantangelo6872]

Perhaps not better but definitely better value for money

[@lanceblack888]

@@albertosantangelo6872 better because you do less maintenance and more cycling 🚴‍♀️

So the video you did the other day about aero, weight, comfort and positioning etc? 😬🤷🏼‍♂️😂🤣🚴🏼💨💨💨💨👍🏻.
