  1. There's surely a psychological effect that leads to more effort on a better bike. Apart from that, should be easy to just calculate the speed per watt increase.

  2. If you want to get fit, ride an old steel touring bike! Rides can be shorter and you’re not pissing off as many people in cycle paths by riding so fast.

  3. Faster this faster that” real world u wouldn’t go any faster on a bike today as if from the bikes in the 86 TDF, the difference was only 2.2 mph from 86 TDF to 2024 TDF, the 86TDF was 322 miles longer and bikes weighed 18/19 lbs. All marketing, to get you to buy bikes that cost stupid prices……….

  4. I'm a student on a budget, my question is the exact opposite
    Without spending over 10hours of my week in gym & saddle, how much can I improve on a random hybrid bike my dad bought me 7 years ago 😂
