Might have to add this to my Linkedin profile somewhere, 'Had 3/10 top STW.com stories from 2021' ha. Or you know, make myself a badge or something.
Keep up the amazing work, guys! Look forward to seeing what 2022 has in store for STW.
Ooh, they're interesting! I'm gonna read a couple of them now 😀
Garmin Fenix 6. The last smar****ch you'll buy... from Garmin. Then after you're so ****ed off with it and the software flakiness, you'll go buy something better from Polar or Suunto.
As for the top ten best looking bikes... 8 are still butt fugly. Charlie's choice is still niiiice.
And praise be my bikes still all have a double chain ring and front mech so I don't have to pay 5x for the narrow-wide chain ring, have a garbage chain line, amd have to use a chain catcher where the mech should be.
(Except the one with a triple chainset. And the one with the real solution - a Rohloff hub and Gates belt drive).

In fact, come to think of it, the only times I’ve dropped a chain to my memory are on 2x gravel bike, which when that drivetrain gives up, will move to 1x
