    Let's talk front wheel removal

    Hubdock on BROL This kind of thing came up on BROL. There is at least one link in this thread about some pretty old implementations. Link opens in a new window. http://www.bentrideronline.com/messageboard/showthread.php?p=1049255#poststop Found the other link I was referencing...

    VIDEO FUTURE

    You guys are killing me.   I You guys are killing me. I was reading about a 70/39 by 11/36 in some velomobile forums about the DF velomobile. Do you think Di2 could handle a range like that? I'd like to go bigger than the 53/39 on my Vendetta but this is probably extreme. I could...

    I like it. Dang it, says he I like it. Dang it, says he as he looks at his bike budget... Double or triple dang it after his last thought below... I thought that chainstay hole looked really huge in the first photo but it looks better in the other two photos. You know this would be...

    Editing post with embedded video Also if you try and edit a post with an embedded video, the edit window doesn't preserve the embed and you will lose it unless you embed it again... And what is with that droopy saddle in the bioshift video above? -Eric

    Shift maps I think the shift maps account for the changes you get vis-À-vis momentum/inertia/lag when you are accelerating/decelerating while shifting particularly when climbing but I need to ponder it more. Here is the embedded version: -Eric

    It works and it works every time consistently I really like the sound of this setup and the programmability/customization and the comment at about the 3:50 mark about "it works and it works every time consistently..." The occasional subtitle pop-up to clarify certain British terms is...

    Video Under Seat with GPS Overlay

    Ivan your Silvio does NOT like stopping Ivan, your Silvio does NOT like stopping... When you come to a stop, while waiting for a stop light or similar your speed slowly creeps up from 2 or 3 km/h to about 10-12 km/h or even more all during the time you are stopped! Is this an...

    Hinged seat Maybe instead of bolting the seat directly to the horns you could manage some kind of hinge between the seat and the frame. This would leave the base secured and enable you to lift the seat forward and then back down with the hinge maintaining the alignment of the seat with the...

    I am green with envy That is a really, really nice looking Quest, Bob! I really like the Ventisit seat pad and the cable wrap idea. I've found the Ventisit on my velo is very comfortable and provides better air flow than the Cruzbike pads. In lieu of your cable wrap I had used a...

    Another thought is to hook Another thought is to hook into a large TV/home theater via your iPad or iPhone. Presumably with something like Apple TV or one of the streaming products. I'm not sure about the resulting quality and performance of either the graphics display or the videos. I...

    iPad Stand Bob, Based on my KICKR experience I'd recommend not mounting an iPad on the handlebars. I think the stand that Ray made is a good idea: http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/02/diy-how-i-made-trainer-bike.html -Eric

    Bar feel How does the bar feel in your hands? Do you notice the cable housing under the tape? Have you done long distance or duration with that setup? E.g. do you find an interest in finding a different hand position after longer periods? I'd like to see some photos of Charlie...

    That looks cool Jim. Can you That looks cool Jim. Can you ride it on rollers? I've ridden on the road with my hands in close to the handlebar clamp and it feels pretty twitchy to me there. I'm not sure if I could ride on rollers that way. -Eric

    Will it fit on the cross Will it fit on the cross brace between the chain stays, just below the BB? That is where I usually mount my headlight. -Eric

    Rough start Looked like a rough start. Were you having trouble clipping in? Also, where are the power numbers coming from? From a power meter, you got a Stages PM I think, or are these extrapolated numbers? The reason I ask is they seem a little high for the corresponding grade, cadence...
