Specialized tri spokes ....perfect!

Ditto.

Mine is still chugging along as well. Lately its been having occasional problems being detected by my computer, so I sometimes have to put it in mass storage mode to upload my rides...

"I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10, and I don't know why!"

That's one reason why I will be talking about the Shimano 685/785 levers when this thread is resurrected in 15 years. There's so much hood that I feel like I can do that position with enough to safely hold on to. They are the perfect size for my hands as well. Love them. All mechanical levers feel too small anymore.

I like it! Why no bar end shifters, though?

"They're made of latex, not nitroglycerin"

I've thought about it, but living in Kansas (flatlands) I rarely get off the large front ring, and only use 2 maybe three gears in the rear. I just don't shift that often. I'm also a very old school rider (raced in the 80's) and my muscle memory fully embraces the downtube shifters, as well as out of saddle and riding the drops often.

Athlinks / Strava

I race with tubular zipps 404 from 2006 (they were super cheap when i bought them but cost me an arm and a leg in tires every time I have a flat by now).

I do my long rides outdoors on a trek alpha 1 from 2010.

Does kit count? My first 4 team jerseys (consecutive years) from the early 80s.

Do you use both a front & rear still? Those are the ones that require the narrow tyres, right?

Timex Ironman watch (mentioned earlier).

An old Cateye bike computer (not sure about the model number, but it's on its third bike in about twenty years).

Rim brakes on alloy rims (along with lots of other folks).

Cable shifters (also along with lots of other folks).

Doing all of my riding on the road (I don't even own a trainer, and we've got nice weather and not much traffic in NM).

Running intervals on the high school track (mentioned earlier).

"Human existence is based upon two pillars: Compassion and knowledge. Compassion without knowledge is ineffective; Knowledge without compassion is inhuman." Victor Weisskopf.

Fuel belt, 4 small bottles. Just used it this morning. Bought in the late 90's?

Yeah front and back 23mm... That suits me for training and racing....narrower might be more aero at above 30mph but this rolls comfortable and give good contact for cornering

I still use the pace clock at the swimming pool & I am a better swimmer for it.

Sorry for this but I’m mildly disappointed that I haven’t seen any “yo momma” type jokes or replies in here.

Powertap P1 pedals

Socks

My 47 year old legs and heart. Lol

Winter - neck warmer

Summer - Gin

My mid 50's Gillot Tandem, usually get a few TT's in on it throught the season just for fun ( still a fair few tandem riders in my club so somtimes theres a tandem night with upto 5-6 tandems TT'ing ), this bike has passed through severel club memebers and I belive still holds a few club records from the 80's (with much better riders than me!)

Had it painted a few years ago, and in the paint shop there was another Gillot being painted, I liked the Blue so got it done the same.... never occured it was the same shad as our club kit!

Pool clock
Speedo brief
Swedish goggles
Hard work and grit instead of “hacks”

"The person on top of the mountain didn't fall there." - unkown

also rule 5

Depends what you count as vintage... so I’ll just list what I use that’s really old.

I still use an A2 for racing (bought a new one last year) and will for at least this year and next year. My ultegra pedals are about 11 years old, as are my Sidi shoes. Still use my spd pedals on the trainer that are about 14 along with my original specialized mountain shoes also about 15 on a 15 year old Allez. My transition bag is from 2010 and I really have to intention of replacing it unless it breaks. Also 10 speed cassette.

I still lapped everyone on the couch!

Cinelli Grippo and cinelli spinaccissimi as extension on my road bike. Has to hack something to make them fit a 31.8 bar. Very light low and ergonomic, can be set to draft legal configuration easily.

I have a 2000 Kestrel 200 SCi that i received in 2000 as a lifetime warranty replacement of my 1991 Kestrel 200 SCi when that frame cracked. The replacement 200SCi is retired to my trainer, but its my best bike of all time. This is just a photo off the internet of the same bike

Still race on Zipp 440 Tubs,

I've just built up a frame for my girlfriend with a 2007 Campagnolo Record 10s groupset; it looks and shifts great and it's super light
