This is stupid and dangerous advice. Do not follow it.
NFPA 1971 qualified gloves are only going to let you *very briefly* handle objects up to 300C and provide *flash* protection for up to around 500C.
Tear gas canisters burn at 700C.

Tip: use structural firefighting gloves. They have heat shielding/padding on the grip surfaces, for grabbing flaming timbers and stuff.
Welding gloves only have heat padding on the back (to shield your hand from sparks). The grip area is un-padded because you are only expected to hold a cool handle

There is the so-called "T-Post" design. Typically the loop portion of these racks are cleverly designed to be a few inches higher than a 700c wheel, so riders must remove both wheels and have the frame and derailleur touching pavement like a big jumble.

Steyr-Puch of Austria was one of many foreign companies which built Fiats under licence. One long-lasting product was a version of the iconic 500, featuring Puch's own more powerful 643cc engine. This brochure covers the 700C and 700E estate cars. #weirdcarbs

Heartbreaking! The wheel build you've just decided to do will be delayed by at least 2 weeks.

Lovely new 700c wheels on the bike, handles much better now. Did have to file some flats on the axles to get them into the drops but it’s fine 👍

Regarding tire pressure, on my gravel bike (700c x 38), I put about 34 psi in the front and 35.5 psi in the rear. The days of always pumping your tires beyond 60 psi is over.
Some still think bicycles are more efficient if the tires are inflated at very high pressure (e.g., 100 PSI; 6.89 bars). In fact, lower is often better, and it's dependent on total weight of rider+equipment, bicycle type and terrain, tire width and diameter, and quality of tire. Here's a calculator.

a few things I have learned recently after several decades of riding road bikes the “correct” way:
-I don’t miss clipless pedals at all.
-bar end shifters are great.
-700C wheels with 30mm tires inflated to 53psi are absolute heaven.
-I don’t miss clipless pedals at all.
-bar end shifters are great.
-700C wheels with 30mm tires inflated to 53psi are absolute heaven.
