@irina@wandering.shop Now I wonder why the “men's” design exists at all. Is it more structurally sound or something? @sluttymayo@jorts.horse

    @argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org @irina@wandering.shop @sluttymayo@jorts.horse The "men's" design is part of the reason I stopped riding bicycle. At my height of 188 cm, a sufficiently large bicycle has that bar at a fuckass high level and it's very laborious to lug my leg over the bar every time I have to mount or dismount.

    @argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org @irina@wandering.shop @sluttymayo@jorts.horse yes it is. Stronger and stiff for less material. Some of my bikes are "female" framed, others are "male" framed. When having 25 kg of shopping in the panniers at the back, mounting in front (female) is much more stable. Long story short: each framed type has a specific use type. Enough reason to have multiple bikes of different types.
