For example at the moment I’m fed up of hearing about how amazing tubular tyres are and just a few posts above we now have proof that electronic shifting must be garbage because of some 4 year old viral YouTube video of a pro having a problem with it.
...I thank God in his heaven that I no longer need to ride tubular tyres, and deal with their issues. As for electronic shifting, I don't think it's garbage. I just don't find it to be a huge technological leap. So there must be other people contributing to this.
