A $400 Crappy Tire bike is nowhere close to being the same as even just a $2k bike though? The $400 CT special will be heavy, numb, and rides like a wad of wet noodles. Certainly you must know that?
With weight, in particular, it should be pretty obvious even to a novice rider. The frame stiffness and responsiveness bits are at least more subtle. Quote:

If your really into it, a used 1500$ bike and your good to go.
Those that spend 8k on a carbon bike are the definition of enthusiasts, and the 8k is well worth it. | As an aside, the old man in me often reminds me of how running is bad for my ankles, knees, and hips, esp my knees. No amount of high dollar shoes will be able to save me from that.  |

I don't play with CEOs and politicians at fucking Langara golf course LOL, especially not when it used to cost $40 for 5 hours of play.

The basic outlay back in the day was like a couple hundred bucks to buy a decent driver that wasn't made of wood anymore like 68style's clubs  | Well of course not at langara ! Heavens forbid.
The snobby fuckers are those that go to those private clubs that are invite only.
Anyone a part of royal Vancouver yacht club here ?! You want elitism.. try that club of douchebags. I got a free membership I think through the shipping federation and I still refuse to go to any of their events.

I use Adam’s graphene detailer spray. If I don’t have it I’ll just use baby wipes to at least get most it off or worse case scenario just get a Chinese old lady to spit on it. https://youtu.be/ph-ZcdWquJQ?si=KK961Ij5khh6PTet | |

She stepped out from that Neptune Chinese restaurant and started spitting. Dim sum no goooddddd I guess ?
Either way when our women turn into old ladies they are brutal. You think white karens have an attitude problem ? Chinese old ladies don’t give a fuck about anything.
I can’t wait for spy balloon to hit menopause and starting fights at foodie world

Tire soap does the same trick. One time, this lesbo brought her old white impreza in, covered in moss, so we washed it with tire soap

Update on the Seafoam Bugs Be Gone.
It's essentially a very concentrated soap. You spray it on, let it soak for a minute to a minute and a half, spray if off with a hose, and wipe it off. It worked, but the stubborn bugs stuck on will require some extra effort. I'll need to clay bar and detail my car given all the dirt and grime stuck on it.

There were lots of big ones, the kind you can actually hear hitting the windshield and leave massive smears of guts.
This time I was able to get on it right away so a pressure washer + microfiber with lots of soap got most of the goo off.
