It's easy. Before reading : I'm sure majority will call it " rude " , I call it "honest". You don't have to agree with me. I don't care. But if your answer to this content will be " bullshit, not true...." I'm writing EXACTLY ABOUT YOU:
1.
NO ONE will admit : " I made mistake, what a crap, etc " - that 1st thing. And everyone will go to place where they have "acceptance", why - there's answer :
2nd : people more than ever need to "belong" and "follow". Look at topic titles/ content : help me choose, what to choose, this is not so popular on this forum, what others use.... for me it's sick, since those are written by adults. Not so many people are "brave" enough to try something new, and belong on their OWN opinion & experience. Sad, but true.
Examples : Zipp: their "tests" are more than funny (only funny to be honest) , hubs unreliable, wheels overall soft. And what : few trendsetters + pro peloton and Zipp is popular ... ( peloton appearance is based on money and ONLY on money, so please save me "pro's using it "
and BTW pro's don't use "so perfect Colnago"
)
3rd. people are liars. Reason ? They can. It make them feel better. Examples : bicycle weight. When Giant published REAL weight of bikes, NO ONE admit: I was wrong, my bike is 1kg heavier... NOTHING HAPPENED: Information was TOTALLY IGNORED.
Last example : ....Cannondale ( 7.45kg, when component weights says is closer to 9kg tah to 7 ) - AND SOME "USEFUL IDIOTS" EVEN DEFEND THIS LIAR ! " Aweosme
"
Another one : Lightweight : 1 Q only : what is trueness tolerance for NEW LW wheelset
.... Examples like that are MANY.
Are more& more examples, but perfect one is Conti - their "employees" here are sometimes pathetic. It's so obvious that their posts are "sponsored".... And what ? NOTHING. no one is "seeing it" . INCLUDING YOU
Acceptance put you automatically to this "club".
Cannondale, Trek, Specialized, Zipp, Lightweight, Conti, 3T, SRAM : those are "liked" here.
That was about people's "experience" expressed here.
All of them ? Naturally no. majority ? I believe yes, incl "followers" and "members"
.
Does it mean it is Supersix "crap" frame ? Absolutely NO ! But TODAY are many better, and on this forum this knowledge is "tabula rasa". Ignored. Forbidden. Dicriminated. Topics are not "discussed".
Caad 10 is best
And Allez . And Conti 4000s2
In racing world of technology, 5y old frame IS OUTDATED, regardless your agreement for that. technology is evolving, there's more data about, design & manufacturing is evolving as well. New is designed to perform better than old. Better is the enemy of "good".
BTW do you noticed any 23mm/25mm tubular rims 5 years ago ? In last 10 years of cycling components dvelopment , EVERYTHING changed. And you think that in last 5 nothing did ? Or Cannondale invented something not known to ALL others ? REALLY ???
