Here's my old fashioned bike, I had it out for a ride this morning actually. It's not the fastest bike I own by any means, but it's a fun ride and always puts a smile on my face.

I actually enjoy riding with the dt shifters once in a while because they force me to think deliberately about when or whether I shift gears, as opposed to powering/spinning through something. I don't have a power meter to test this, but my assumption (based on feel and average speed numbers) is that the focus and self-awareness from doing this kind of practice improves how effectively I manage effort when I get back on a more modern bike with integrated shifters.

That's simply old and alright. It's not retro or classic or a poorfags road bike and your badly composed, tiny, nds photo that you needed help taking displeases me.

I need the stats on your bike. That seat is fucking sweat. Looks like a mix of Campagnolo Super Record, Nuovo and C Record parts. Put some high flange hubs on that bish.

Actual old bikes, or are retro styled bikes ok here?
