    He also has incredibly muscular forearms.

    He does? 🤔
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Yes, places your hands on the hoods like he does and you will see an absence of lumps and bumps compared to him. My forearms are in pretty good shape having rock climbed for 50 plus years at reasonable standard. However nothing compared to Hirschi’s

    A young Stallion perhaps...

    I ride like that when not chatting on a cafe run and it has never crossed my mind.
    My forearms are full of lumps and bumps, I just thought everyone else was the same. Obviously have unknown skilz. 😉
    Pecs and abs are a different matter. 🤣🤣🤣

    Undoubtably true! Needless to say that when I got back on the bike due to an ever expanding waistline I had a few spacers under my stem and sat considerably higher.
    I can still remember the first day my thighs hit my ribcage instead of my belly! 🤣🤣
