TrainerRoad acolyte since 2014. Not possible to get anything done without TR!
My old race bike is now my OTT fixed-gear commuter. BMC Timemachine02 with a very spinny gear.
And for racing/training my Planet X Exo3, love that eTap!

I voted for the log, not the bike. Sorry!
Ratio?
Custom steel bike, carbon fork, Ultegra r8000, and 28mm tires. I’ve since put oval AbsoluteBlack chainrings on it.
That ride, and usually 49-17. I’ll go 49-16 for our group rides
Those are the highest seatposts I’ve ever seen!
Fellow Synapse owner here. Loved it since I got it at the end of 2015 and finding it hard to figure out what I’d like next other than the new Synapse!

Santa Cruz Hightower for the technical stuff
Santa Cruz Stigmata for everything and then some!
Nice. I’m currently running a 48x16 commuter after a few years of 50x15. Knees say thank you!
I tried running 49-16 commuting, but there is almost always a prevailing wind and a couple of climbs that made it unpleasant and grindy. I give up a few km/h but when your age starts with “5” knees get balky. It’s OK to run 16 or even 15 in group rides with the assistance (and to keep up)
Love the HT and the Stigmata! There isn’t enough Santa Cruz in here, so I’ll add some more.

Hey @TheStevenLewis I’m guessing that’s the long cage force derailleur on the SuperX? I’ve got the shorter cage one and was wondering if I could get away with a 40 or 42 cassette on the back.
Yes @Wazm it is the “long” cage on my SuperX, you are not going to get even a 40T on the mid-cage version of the Force1 derailleur. It’s hard limit really is 36T.
Great thanks for that! You saved me $100 and a fair amount of frustration.
