did kim have any leads, or did you find any possibilities for a test ride? My brother in law in melbourne is also keen for a test ride on either a small vendetta or a current silvio. Anyone?

Among other possible solutions, if plain vanilla circular is ok for you (ooh, how quaint, I still have circular chainrings!) chainrings, there is also the powertap chainring system, but it is limited to 36 tooth at the smallest I think. for power on a budget I have good experience with really...

steve, which hole is the bolt joining the top of the steerer to the cage under the silver boom going through? I managed to get mine though the second rearmost one, with the steerer clamp facing forward. I did have to file a mm or so of metal off the top edge of the steerer clamp, because the...

Yes i saw the 199 ones but the head is not round to fit in the left trainer cone, and being an external can type will be a point contact to the cone and might get damaged. Do you use such skewers on your trainer ratz?

Hi ratz, i don't quite follow what you mean. The probe is that the front dropouts of the v1 and 1.5 are quite thick as both the fork and the chain stays overlap there. An extra long skewer is required, longer than a mtb one. John Tolhurst posted a while back that the skewer needs to be 10-15mm...

well done, smiles all round by the sound of it! nice trailer!

superb

awesome! is it just spring loaded or some sort of actuator?

Nice and calm (but a bit foggy) this morning, I had a go at the 40km out and back (actually it is from my house south to a roundabout, north to a turnoff at 20.5km turnaround, back to the roundabout, turnaround and head home. Not very fast (yet!) but I think a good effort: 40.25km, 1h04m21sec...

Hi Ivan, I was wondering if you are still using the cheapie chinese carbon wing top drop bars on your silvio as I am considering putting some on my vendetta. Cheers, Hamish

I have a 1.5 medium, am 6' ( 183cm) tall. I have no problems with stability at speed. Best speed to date (downhill! I'm no superman.) has been i think 64km/h or so. i feel the medium is maxed our at my size, a the boom is for ced down the further out the bb is set. With your extra 5cm height, i...

The bending stress on the brake bolt depends on the distance from the brake track to the bolt. Making a longer bolt does not change this. What does change is the deflection at the tip of the brake bolt, since that deflection depends on the bending moment applied and the length of the bolt. So...

Just sound this on the web and thought this was the best thread to post it in: short cranksets by Cobb Cycling 145, 155, 160 and 165mm http://www.cobbcycling.com/shop/accessories/Crank-Set and compacts also http://www.cobbcycling.com/shop/accessories/compact-crank-sets In aluminium.

it's still flagged. the times are still not showing on the leaderboards?

$59.95 for a bottle cage? sounds like specialized prices. :-)

Hi Jond (and Larry if you're reading), if you have a bunch of power metered laps data, could you post the data file and if known, the temperature and elevation and perhaps location/ date (so i can look up the pressure), then i can run the numbers though r Chung cda calculation method to come up...

The icaro helmets are rather heavy (close to 1kg if i recall correctly) because the en966 helmet test standard requires resistance to a much harder impact with a 60 degree, 1mm tip radius cone, which essentially dictates a very tough shell. I know this because i had to research the issue to get...

the most extreme fibre of a beam (i.e. the part of the beam furthest from the centreline) is the one with the largest strain. Measuring where the strain is largest makes sense to me, because then the signal to noise ratio will be best. Where they glued it in the DC rainmaker video makes sense in...

Wow what a deal! Too bad i have an old wired powertap so cannot justify a purchase but someone will be happy with it!
