imvho the boom looks to be too far out, at the point on the chainset between where the hour hand is 2-4 o'clock your toes are more forward than your heel, I'd expect this to be the opposite way around with your heel being more forward than your toes, I believe the term is ''ankling''. This is...

If I was to catch cancer I'd lose weight and I'm guessing that my cholesterol would be okay. Just because something 'works' does not mean it is the healthiest option. I've lost weight on a plant based diet, I don't say that this is good based on my own experience, I say this is good based on...

If all you want to do is too lose the pouch in what is imo not the healthiest way then good luck to you.:)

The contradictions I was referring to was to do with insulin response when eating fat, protein and carbs. And Dr McGregor is not anti HFLC, he makes it his job to read journals and then comment on the findings using evidence based research - as he has done with what causes insulin resistance.

As Ratz mentioned to get a proper reading you'd have to go into the a wind tunnel. The V20 has got a lower CdA then the bike, I'm presuming this based on the Diamond Back Andean having a CdA of 0.221? I think it was in a promo video that I saw a few weeks ago, and this would have a lower CdA...

He is a menace imo with his mistruths. In this video for example, he implies that insulin is the main culprit for your body storing fat and when you eat carbs you have elevated insulin levels, that last longer over a period of time because you are constantly snacking on carbs and hence why you...

Went to the Vegfest today in London, very good fun. Good to see other vegans, sat in on some lectures to do with a plant based diet and earlier on in the day saw Kate Strong, a vegan who went on to break the world record for longest distance covered on a static bike in 24 hours - respect...

For me sitting down on a df spinning a low gear climbing a hill trumps over standing every time. Ime if you find yourself having to stand for long periods of time going up a hill then you need to look at your gearing. Ferrari touched on this subject way back when he was working with Armstrong, a...

Try looking at using a standard drop bar, I recently fitted a 3t ergonova handlebar and it seems quicker. Certainly I've noticed that there is far less movement when putting some serious power down. Keeping your wrists in a vertical position as they would be on the bar I think is more efficient...

Agreed, 30 bananas can be classified as a fad diet, but would still have better health benefits than paleo. Nope, I find having the soy milk in the morning keeps me full till lunch. I was able to lose weight and it was easy to maintain. It's just being injured throws these things out of kilt...

I've been adding nothing, because there is nothing imo to say TBH, the reason I add more to the paleo thread is because imo it is a fad diet with some misrepresentations, to answer your points:- Vegan lifestyle is going well, it's cheap, sustainable and good for the planet. I've modified since...

Lovely bike, I like how the Cruzbike crest is on the slider rather then on the head tube.

You're right and they do but they don't feel the same as Speedplays. Is a 30mm BB not compatible with the current Vendetta?

Good vid, I don't think it's haters per se, I think people are just a wee bit sick of some of the misrepresentations of ''carbs'' and reinforcing bad eating habits for example: 3:35 Low fat non refined starch based foods have been shown to reduce weight. Dr McDougall has shown this with his...

Looks like the convention was a lot of fun, the behind the seat frame bag looks good. I'll be keeping an eye out for any updates.

If you enjoy riding your bike with the odd training ride thrown in then get a HR monitor, these are okay for pacing ime and this is what I used to pace myself around PBP last year. If you are serious about training and want to go onto some sort of training plan for an event then you need a...

Larry raises a good point and this is a great test to measure your aerobic fitness. Ideally over the duration of an aerobic/endurance (4 hours +) ride keeping a constant power your HR should not increase by more than 5%, if it does then back off.

160mm for the front and 140 for the rear, with the need to file the weld as the rear rotor was scraping against it.

Very nice, but at $15,000 I'd want something more from a bike other than going fast in a straight line, like being able to ride in London traffic on the commute into work, which I can do on the V20.:) Interesting though, unfortunately here in the UK we don't have something like the UMCA which...

The above is about right, the figure I was thinking of in the earlier post was 0.155 which I got from a power data website, I forget which one.
