    A quick note about the foil wing... has potential. Maybe cycling early morning and wing foil in the afternoon when the sea breeze gets up. The mountain bikes will be sold and the foil board will fill in a little of the space. The wing is inflatable so takes hardly any space at all.

    Well its on but there are teething issues. I waxed the 2 chains and fitted on the bike. So started... there isn't much clearance even for speedwax on the chain so the chain wants to come off. So currently in burning in phase using the middle sprocket so that the chain doesn't deflect in its...

    How difficult is it to replace front disc brake cable housing?

    Yep... you don't get caught twice... I have an irritating front derailleur cable issue on my df. The cables are so friggin tight that it pulls the front cable after a month of use. The bike has been designed for di2 or wireless. Next time around I will use compression jagwire housing. Its really...

    Definetely a coffee read... updating the motor

    That's interesting with baking powder... I use a saline solution before from the chemist with a syringe... but why baking powder? My idea is just to use this flonase for another month. After that all the flowers should be dead with lack of water and 45c of heat. Jesus says forgiveness is the...

    Vosadrian's V20 Journey - Australia

    The vendetta scares me, each time I go out on her. So give her respect. Hills... sit back and spin and grin. You might not be getting as fast as the DF unless you are @Maria Parker ... Go for a bigger cassette ... even with a 42t for those unbearable occasions

    Just look how smooth that chain is. At 50kph there won't be much air turbulence on the drivechain. Problem is I have a week of learning foil wing You can go 50 kph without pedaling

    Another chainstay question

    My cranks are 155mm so I can have it higher than normal. The normal depends on your inside leg measurement and where you will put your cleats. Generally we put the cleats as far back as we can. The idea is... you still want to be able to heel into the stroke. At the moment you just want...

    Another chainstay question

    Curved slider could help. If you want to race on the flats then go for a bigger chainstay. Personally I prefer the flexibility of doing hills too.

    Definetely a coffee read... updating the motor

    That flonase inhaler supposed to be once every 24 hours. As usual I don't like taking things and as the day progresses... the weaker is the effect. So being me I decided to change things around. One puff in on the right and puff out on the left and at night ... puff in on the left and puff out...

    Definetely a coffee read... updating the motor

    Millions more people suffer from COPD, but have not been diagnosed and are not being treated. Although there is no cure for COPD, it can be treated. I try and let restrictions blow over my head... I don't believe in everything I see. There is always a cure for a problem. Even if it hasn't been...

    No.4- generational change not just a step up

    I would say the downtube is a bit fixed straight and level. Some riders would prefer more slope in order to get up bigger slopes. Not sure if you can make it more flexible? Removable front forks and removable rear forks that have attached fenders come to mind. It would make it so easy to pack...
