If it works for you that is all that matters. Don't worry about the silly grin on my face or others as we pass you.

If you find that you don't seem to be able to do something as well as you think you should or are not even close to how others perform doing the same thing, then maybe there is something wrong with that bike. Give us the details of that issue the bike doesn't do well for and maybe you can get some thoughts about it.

Assuming this is a bike you might be thinking of purchasing, then maybe you need to ride your current bike a lot more so you get the experience to know what you need and won't have to seek general advice on what to get.
