Your cog is slipping.
The Machete Pro is even better:

Nothing says "pro" like internal cable routing, no bottle cage mounts and a kickstand!

"It's hard for me to express just how much I adore the fine craftsmanship and high quality components that went together into making this bike. I call her Machete, because that's what it says on the top tube and again on the seat tube where there is also a *****en picture of an actual machete-knife thingy. "

I don't have any complaints, but if I did have one it might be that the head tube seems to be separating from the down tube above the front fork, and kind of wiggles a bit. I'm not sure if that's bad or not, but so far there have been no problems beyond a few cracked spokes and a broken seat clamp and a snapped pedal. 5/5

I absolutely love the clamps on the brake levers, and the shifters in the tops of the drops. I need them for my next bike.

Does the guy that puts these together for the pictures not know brake hoods are meant to be in a certain region of the drops for a reason?

Whoever designed/built the bike probably doesn't even know how to ride a bike because Im sure the bars are sweetly wrapped like that for you when you buy em.

pretty sure they just mailed a box of parts and a pair of pliers to a photographer who has no experience with building bikes with a message saying "go"
