    Mostly just like comments ranging from “You should buy a [$5000 bike]” to “You’re riding a death trap!” And I’d say I’m basing this primarily on my experience trying to ask for help or advice on reddit, so maybe not a really fair cross-section of enthusiasts in general lol

      Yeah Reddit enthusiasts are the nutjobs. Your local shop is where the real enthusiasts are. My local coop is just happy people are riding and fixing up their bikes

        Yeah the people working there are pretty chill, and I’m pretty sure they’d alert me if I were actually riding a death trap!

        I just want to see more people on bikes and fewer in cars.
