It seems to me your thread was started, to make a hybrid bike close to road bike performance. You advised skinnier tyres, padded shorts etc. The very same things you bagged, on your original post.
Not really. I was giving advice on making the bike faster - not fashion advice. I was satirizing riders who want to look the part by buying nice equipment and "cool" clothes. I don't know about you, but I love it when I sense bike snobbery from a road cyclist then go by him on the flat.
