                        I just realized that bikes are another rabbit hole. Looking for a road bike as cross training option for running (no I do not want to compete in road racing or triathlon) since it helps bringing up the fitness without the pounding on my feet.

                          @Dmart - no doubt, there will be plenty of advice available to help you down that particular rabbit hole…

                              First ride of the season and first ride on this bike. Fast and then even more fast. I’m trying to ride 2-3 x’s a week mixed in with heavy weights and gymnastics. It’s a great mind clearer for me. And I ride in the AM about an hour before sunrise and that is the best having the roads to myself. Usually 20-25 miles max does me good.
                              Bravo to the team at Factor. This is a really nice, fast, comfortable bike. Allez!!!!

                                  the seatpost/ saddle is much too low mate 😬
                                  or the frame is too big for you 🤔

                                    Hahaha. Great eye!!

                                    Since this was the very first ride, something I discovered half way thru the ride, was that the seat post wasn’t properly tightened and it gradually slid down to the stop. FML. Very awkward riding back to the house!
                                    It’s adjusted back where it should be… about 10 inches up from what you see in the pic.

                                      @Daniel-San and I hope it’s not too big!! I went back and forth with Factor on every single dimension on my body. Even compared my other two road bikes. Very thorough process.

                                      The fit is nailed I think. I’m very happy with it.

                                        had same problem years ago too.
                                        Seatpost slide down during a ride 😬
                                        the way back was horrible
                                        this is mine

                                          @Daniel-San damn bro, she’s fast standing still. I see an oversized derailleur cog. I did that too. Everything about my new bike is wicked fast. Maybe it’s placebo, but I’m gonna start tracking my rides in Strava so I can know for sure.
