Depending on the frame, the clamping force and/or weight could deform the top tube, as it is not designed to bear vertical loads

Don't grab 'em by the top tubes ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

There is no way it can fit everyone with one size, esp. for smaller riders

I do a lot of work myself too, but there are things I go to the LBS for help. Either it requires a very specialized tool or I am too weak to remove/install some parts

Aren't they like $50 each?

Wait till it still fails to fit my head (I am Asian)

Doesn't that mean you are running run0 as root though?

Huh, I bought wahoo because I specifically know that I could access the .fit files and upload routes via MTP. But I have to customize the layouts via the APP... Does Garmin also allow an MTP connection with a computer?

450 for a helmet? Doesn't make sense if there are way cheaper but just as safe options...

Thanks for your perspective on the admin and overhead cost on charities, I clearly does not know as much in the area.

The main concern I have with WBR, from the information provided in the article, is that there are already cheaper bikes (Black Mamba) and LBS in those areas. W/ Black Mamba I am not sure what the Buffalo is gonna solve. The LBS' perspective is quite interesting, that WBR wants to build their own "ecosystem" for Buffalo bike repairs and exclude the LBS. It is just weird how they operate.
