Feels like several hundred watts just to soft pedal above a certain rpm, after the covid shot my resting heartrate shot through the roof and I can't pedal as fast as I used to. 160 rpm max.

The LBS I trust the most has this weird internally geared custom made bike with bullhorns, I doubt anyone took it off the dudes hands. has 3 gears, maybe the big dog is heavy enough to keep up with the fast squads? Ill have to talk to the owner, should get real handlebars, some rich dude got it custom build and never even took it out of the shop..
