i could understand them in a practical sense, like on rental bikes at a track, but not on my own bike
you get the right size stem once, no need to go messing with it

Not necessarily. Making adjustments to riding position is pretty common. Eddy Merckx used to constantly adjust his saddle right up to the starts of races.

Owner(or former owner maybe) of the 3rencho is the guy that runs Cycling WMD. He is now building his own frames, with very interesting results. I dig it pretty hard.

wasn't that because of his hip injury that left him constantly uncomfortable on the saddle for the rest of his life?

I adjust my saddle height every very often, but even more so if i have been of my bike fore a few weeks or something. or my shoulder give me grief.
Sometimes I am feeling stronger. Sometimes I need to lay off and just enjoy the fact I can ride a bike.
the human body changes a lot, and so to little things like your shoes and stuff.

All of these generic fancy lugged track frames from 40 years ago don't really do anything for me. I just don't care, they are all the same. To each their own.

Hey dude I know it's your first time contributing to this thread, but that bike you posted doesn't really confirm to the high standards around here. You can potentially ruin someone's intimate moments in this thread.
Can you spot what's wrong? Hint: you can thumb through the pages to see but I can tell you it's around the saddle and handlebars. Yes I know there's a difference between exotics not conforming but the bike had violated the basic pretenses.
