    Multi-day group ride entry fee sponsorships!

    Slim it’s a toss up as to purchasing a bitumen plant or build the titanium v. My terrible road frustration is maddening. With 28 mm tyres on the vendetta is comfy with 70psi. But I find myself saving the vendetta and catrike 700 for smoother roads. Riding the hurricane more.

    Each one teach one

    It is confounding perplexing frustrating and frankly annoying that such an obvious smart great quality advantaged product is a niche within a niche. Sheep and cattle are not adventurous. Dam things need a stampede to wake up. The answer is to have the uci allow recumbents equality. Put Peter...

    Super slim had a similar problem but now with nyloc nuts on the sides of his neck it will never happen again.

    Multi-day group ride entry fee sponsorships!

    Well one is a commuter from Melbourne and one is a collector from Newcastle. So no audax types however they both have ridden a lot of miles. 27 months to retirement I’m hoping then to be doing many more miles.

    It's amazing how an approaching storm will boost your riding speed

    Downunda we have cute drop bears that eat bikes . Crocodiles that ride them after stashing the rider under a submerged log. The Majority of the worlds most venomous snakes masquerading as bicycle tyres. Boxing kangaroos that respond to a bicycle bell with a viscous one two disembowelling...

    Think I'm Going to Love This

    The problem with any headrest is the fitting to suit all head shapes and comfort equation. My vendetta headrest standard with innertube cushion is way way better than my catrike 700 standard or closed cell foam insert in terms of rattle transference. I’m talking bad roads pothole repaired acne...

    Think I'm Going to Love This

    Lol it’s not the vendetta off the Beta production line rather the riders. Vendetta fits way more riders in the 700 c wheel speed market than any m5 or Bacchetta. Or schlitter. Stick bikes and short legs with 700c wheels is a real stop start difficulty and if you’re tall an m5 especially with...

    600K brevet in Trondheim, Norway

    Congratulations too. Couple things I noticed from video. Lucky man being blessed with your family. Wearing no gloves at times makes you braver than I. No clear glasses a bug in the eye at speed can end your ride. I know fogging can be an insurmountable issue in rain at cool temps. For...

    Think I'm Going to Love This

    Re the headrest. It is very very common to have the head rest too far in. Seems counterintuitive to let it out for comfort but letting it out brings your head more vertical. Lots find oem comfy I do with addition of innertube 23 mm inflated three rows wide Others try factory options after...

    Memorial to Würzburg Bombing Victims

    Great stuff Jim. Salutary palpable experience. I wish I had a q45 and s40 .......don’t tell my wife. World agreed open history should be mandatory for everyone. We must all “never forget and remember them. .” The sacrifice. it was by far the russians whom paid the highest price with 20...

    front wheel change

    nah no mistake it’s a great small family company beholden to industry evolvement and can’t possibly react as quickly to trends advances etc as the bigger crazy popular dictated by dollars only behemoths. And yes I turn my bike upside down at my peril to change a flat. And my triangle is ahem...

    Strava stole my (estimated) power!!

    Why yes I have. It’s why I pay no heed to strava estimates. Bike weights anyone. Aero anything cda Generally power is disseminated by watts/kg so adjust your total weight on your profile appropriately for a more reliable estimate Heart rate is fraught with issue for estimation see...

    Upgrade from Sofrider to Q45??

    David I see an s40 would likely also be very suitable. A vendetta is not really suitable for unsealed paths.
