    Chain Reaction

    It is actually. My headrest has been reduced by 1.5 inches so my head is angled on a recline. The tape flaps stops the air from running underneath the visor. I don't get sore eyes when going +40.. before I had to wear 2 pairs of glasses to keep the dust out.

    Chain Reaction

    It just seems like a conflict that's trying to bring out the worst in me. Perhaps it's time to flash some real cash before it burns in the stock market on some real wheels that are top notch. That will probably get me to 50kph better than anything else

    Chain Reaction

    It's a sad day. My days of glory are curtailed ... I have been refining the engine since February... from which I had a terrible virus that had kept me low and in quarantine for weeks and consequently overweight. So what did I do in quarantine... well I upgraded the vendetta and put a TRP spyre...

    Searching out the limits on the V20.

    Those bridges over freeways are good for bicep curls; sitting up and kicking out ... well punchy. Long hills of 5%+.... less rad and more pace

    Searching out the limits on the V20.

    I know that for a long time I have used the boom out at full length but honestly if you want the power then shorten that boom so you can heel into every rotation of the cranks with your ankles. Then perhaps you can practice sprinting down into the pedals like a DF pushing side to side.

    Does strava have a profile for cruzbike vendetta?

    I will change it to a v18... guess no one ever made a V18

    Does strava have a profile for cruzbike vendetta?

    I guess the thing I would like to know if strava works out power by sample aggregation of bike name categorization. I guess then they can work out averages from other peoples power meters. I do think the technology is very clever. It also helps I guess to have a popular bike that everyone loves...

    Does strava have a profile for cruzbike vendetta?

    My latest reading was faster but the wattage lower ... pretty sure the headwind was a bit stronger too and this was just done on my wahoo bolt without a power meter. The 2nd was on a road bike ... almost the same speed with 90 watts more. Just find it surprising as I wasnt drafting off any...

    Does strava have a profile for cruzbike vendetta?

    I say that as I am quite amazed after reviewing my latest ride. I have been trying a few things and in no way was i going max but somehow it knew approximately what my wattage was for the vendetta. I am shocked.

    Bag solutions for Vendetta V20?

    Are there new V20s coming out?

    If you are running disc brakes you could use a 650b wheel and a 30mm tire... ultra comfy.

    Helmet recommendations for v20- mine keeps moving

    Similar sort of thing about helmets... I have never found a helmet where you could micro adjust a visor. I cycle in desert like conditions with dust in the air at 50kph is a nuisance ... I would absolutely adore a helmet with visor that works too. I did notice some glasses that have adjustments...

    Anybody else's kitchen look like this??

    I am curious... the v20 hanging from the chandelier has a chrome fork? Is it of old?

    A 1000 km solo brevet around the south of Norway

    I have a question... I enjoyed the video for sure. I noticed much more traffic on the 2nd half of the journey. I noticed too that at checkpoints you seem just to get a receipt for something to show that you had been there at that time. Do you need to hand in the receipts to show that you rode...

    Cranks

    They look a bit home made... are they yours? What's your wattage say at 40kph on the 0% gradient compared to ordinary road bike shoes? Interesting concept... I guess velcro rules with like a cleat and pedal sandwich :rolleyes:

    Cranks

    Perhaps a nose cone would be better for the Vandetta?

    Cranks

    Luv em or hate them. We need cranks otherwise we don't get anywhere. Well i am believing that there is a lot of dirty turbulent air coming off my cranks giving my ride micro turbulence when going 40kph plus. I am thinking to create aero sleeves to put over my crank arms to reduce this effect...

    Cruzbike Time Trial Challenge 2020

    If you only have one chain for the bike then replacing the chain each year is cheaper than having to change cassettes and chainrings. If you do change the chain then I would say the probability of a chain breaking would be minimal.
