    One interpretation is that there are a few comedy geniuses and lots of gullible people on the internet.

    I was more than happy with my Rim brake Specialized Tarmac.
    Until I got in a little accident and the frame got written off.

    I looked at loads of new bikes but nothing grabbed my fancy so got another Tarmac, only this time a S-Works SL6 with discs.

    I had no other option if I wanted a new Tarmac. Specialized only sell disc frame now. (Yes I could have gone 2nd hand or got a different bike but that's not what I wanted)

    And that's the issue being forced into buying something you don't necessarily want but Specialised in their wisdom dictate you need!

    You can still get a rim brake SL6. I think the SL7 is disc only.

    Nope.
    After 2019 the Tarmac went disc only, even the SL6.

    No where had the 2019 in stock in any decent colours, so I had to go my2020 which are disc only.

    I don’t suppose it matters what position you ride if you are doing under 15 mph average with a cadence of 50 revs per minute.

    I don’t imagine it does, but my average is closer to 19mph ( on an effort where I care ) at a cadence of 80-90, and an NP OF 230-250 Watts. Which isn’t bad for someone who gives less than a single frig about it really. I’m an old fart, and an amateur, and I don’t race ( and never have ) I just do whatever I need to do, and vary it according to circumstance. I rarely ‘open the taps’ I rarely need to,

    That's interesting, because you have previously claimed to have been a keen crit racer, and a cycle coach, and a materials scientist, and probably a load of other stuff that you forgot that you previously lied about.

    Your bullshiit is catching up with you Nick.

    I’ve never raced professionally, is what I was trying to say. I am a materials scientist, have been for decades. I’d never claim to be a professional coach, but I have coached riders in the past

    So you've 'never raced professionally' - or you've 'never raced at all' - which is it? I only ask because BC's race results archive goes all the way back to 1998 and there are no records at all for anyone with your name.

    And no, you are not a materials scientist - at least not a qualified one. And neither are you a qualified cycle coach. Giving a few people some questionable advice while out on your bike, or on the internet, does not make you an actual coach.
    You’d have to go back a lot further than 1998 to find me on any register, I doubt there are any ‘non paper’ footprints. I am a fully qualified materials scientist, and as I said, I’m not a professionally accredited coach ( just yet ) I’m working on that, but Corona stuff is really getting in the way of that at present.
    Fking hell, you're getting desperate. You're not a materials scientist, you're a QA technician for Fibercore in Southampton and an ex BT telephone installer. Loads of people have outed you on this previously.

    Now you admit to not being an accredited coach, despite previously claiming on here, on cyclechat and on CUK that you were.

    You also claimed on here under previous usernames to have been racing a lot more recently than 22 years ago. Earlier on this thread you said that you 'don't race' and 'never have'. Like I said before, you lie so much and so often, that you've obviously forgotten what you've been lying about. Which is understandable, but I don't get why you don't just admit you have a problem with compulsion and try to get some help with it.

    Your ‘info ‘ is so out of date it’s got mould growing on it. I was never a “Q.A technician” anywhere. If you’ve got a problem with anything, furnish me with your whereabouts and I’ll put you straight. “BT telephone installer” bloody hell, that’s news to me, and BT. And ( hilariously ) I’ve never claimed to be an accredited coach anywhere. As I also pointed out, I never raced professionally, I haven’t turned a wheel in anger since 1994.

    It's taken you seven days to come up with that reply - and all you can do is offer another thinly-veiled threat of violence. You already confirmed on another forum that you were a BT technician - so were you lying then, or are you lying now? It must be so hard to keep track...

    Damn right it’s fking boring, the guy has been banned from here and rejoined eleven times now. And every time he starts by pretending it’s not him, and ends up offering to meet up in person to ‘sort things out’. There’s usually some casual sexism, racism or homophobia thrown in along the way. He’s utterly predictable, sadly, and his tenure this time looks like going the same way as all the others. If he didn’t talk such a load of shiit, nobody would notice...

    Your bullshiit is catching up with you Nick.

    I’ve never raced professionally, is what I was trying to say. I am a materials scientist, have been for decades. I’d never claim to be a professional coach, but I have coached riders in the past

    So you've 'never raced professionally' - or you've 'never raced at all' - which is it? I only ask because BC's race results archive goes all the way back to 1998 and there are no records at all for anyone with your name.

    And no, you are not a materials scientist - at least not a qualified one. And neither are you a qualified cycle coach. Giving a few people some questionable advice while out on your bike, or on the internet, does not make you an actual coach.
    You’d have to go back a lot further than 1998 to find me on any register, I doubt there are any ‘non paper’ footprints. I am a fully qualified materials scientist, and as I said, I’m not a professionally accredited coach ( just yet ) I’m working on that, but Corona stuff is really getting in the way of that at present.
    Fking hell, you're getting desperate. You're not a materials scientist, you're a QA technician for Fibercore in Southampton and an ex BT telephone installer. Loads of people have outed you on this previously.

    Now you admit to not being an accredited coach, despite previously claiming on here, on cyclechat and on CUK that you were.

    You also claimed on here under previous usernames to have been racing a lot more recently than 22 years ago. Earlier on this thread you said that you 'don't race' and 'never have'. Like I said before, you lie so much and so often, that you've obviously forgotten what you've been lying about. Which is understandable, but I don't get why you don't just admit you have a problem with compulsion and try to get some help with it.

    Your ‘info ‘ is so out of date it’s got mould growing on it. I was never a “Q.A technician” anywhere. If you’ve got a problem with anything, furnish me with your whereabouts and I’ll put you straight. “BT telephone installer” bloody hell, that’s news to me, and BT.

    It's taken you seven days to come up with that reply - and all you can do is offer another thinly-veiled threat of violence. You already confirmed on another forum that you were a BT technician - so were you lying then, or are you lying now? It must be so hard to keep track...
    I’ve never had anything to do with B.T. I’ve only got so many hours in my life to keep up with your stalking.

    So in other words, you were lying on the other forum. I can link to it if you like?
    I assume this is the Piston Heads thread somebody linked to previously? I remember reading that and thinking "blooooooody hell!!!!!!!" It had gone way beyond a bit of a forum spat and descended into something very dark.
    Yes, he got properly outed on that thread and admitted to being the troll that he is. Unfortunately, in the years since then he has only got worse...

  • Boring, boring, boring. FFS, you two are as bad as each other. From disc brakes to a censored slap fest in one thread. Really?

    Damn right it’s fking boring, the guy has been banned from here and rejoined eleven times now. And every time he starts by pretending it’s not him, and ends up offering to meet up in person to ‘sort things out’. There’s usually some casual sexism, racism or homophobia thrown in along the way. He’s utterly predictable, sadly, and his tenure this time looks like going the same way as all the others. If he didn’t talk such a load of shiit, nobody would notice...

    Boring, boring, boring. You are beginning to sound like a demented stalker, FA. The cycling community is small and we already know what we know. You are just not getting it are you?

    Time to move on ffs.
    Not a Giro Hero!

    Mate, you don't have to read it. You don't have to reply either. If the idea of me calling out the worst and most persistent troll we've ever had on these forums bothers you so much, then simply use the ignore function...
