The trend to cast disdain on what other cyclists choose to ride/wear/do even if their actions have no quantifiable effect on the disdainer.
The opposite of this, people who cast distain on people who know perfectly well that a 100mm (or even rigid) hardtail singlespeed isn’t the correct the tool for the job, but choose to ride one anyway because it’s fun in a completely different way to a 6″ travel bouncy bike.
Evangelists of any type of bike or bike part, infact I’m going to put SPD’s on my Pitch when I build it back up, and cut down my bars to make then narrower!
Stans No-tube rims, the biggest con ever? They’re just a normal rim, but without the spoke eyelets and a slightly different shape bead. Thats the same manufactureing process as an Argos BSOs rim! And no they’re not a small volume manufacturer exploiting a good idea whith high overheads to cover, no economy of scale etc etc etc, they’re a division of Sun-Ringle, one of the biggest rim manufacturers out there!
