What this page is
This page quotes r/cycling's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-05. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/cycling's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.
Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.
Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($99 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

All 7 rules of r/cycling
- No Self Promotion
The community has spoken: If you only submit links to your own content, your links will be removed as spam. We suggest being an active participating member of Reddit and /r/cycling before submitting links to your own site. Affiliate links are self promotion. - No Picture Posts of your Stuff
/r/cycling can be thought of as a discussion-driven forum. Pictures of your stuff will be actively removed, unless there is some kind of necessary discussion involved. /r/bicycling is an image-driven forum. They are our friends and I like to think we complement eachother. - No Memes
These will be actively removed, but consider posting in /r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu, /r/AdviceAnimals, or /r/memes. - No Surveys
No surveys unless you're an active community member of /r/cycling. Surveys from new accounts will be removed. /r/cycling is not a vein of ore for you to mine. - Don't be a jerk. Be kind to each other.
We're all humans. All trying to make sense of this messed up world. Don't attack people. If you can't say it nicely then perhaps don't say it at all. It isn't your job to "fix" random people on the internet. Consider using "I" statements instead of "you" statements. If someone insults you then move on or report them. Do not respond in kind. Victim blaming is jerk behavior. - No Racism/Hate Speech
There will be zero tolerance for racism, homophobia/transphobia, or sexism/misogyny, engaging in any sort of hate speech will result in the post or comment being removed and the poster being banned. We do not allow hate speech. - No bots of any sort. No computer-generated responses. No AI content.
What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
