I don't have any lines, but I refuse to buy stuff I don't need.
So, i may need an e-bike with hydraulic discs - some day.
But I'll never need 11 speed cassettes or electronic shifting, or a built-in Bento box.
Or handlebars full of electronic gadgets.


Given the right gearing for the terrain, a nice steel race bike from the 70/80s probably has more performance capabili5y that my 70yo engine and reflexes can deliver. Just give me good lightweight tires.
