This is a discussion group. If I like something, I tend to discuss why. If I don't like something, I tend to discuss why. Others are free to do the same.
John, can you tell us about your preferred bike equipment? What's on your bikes?
I'm betting that you, like Grant Petersen, have a steel frame, cable operated derailleurs (maybe even friction shifting!), caliper brakes instead of discs, fewer than 10 rear cogs, etc.
In other words, I'm betting your bike has the features you're now mocking. I'm betting that, as with other issues discussed here, your own behavior doesn't match your mocking arguments. But you won't have the courage to admit it.
