    Anyone try OneUP 40T or 42T Cassette Sprocket?

    Or perhaps go the other way and look at the changing the chain rings? A 42*11 at 95rpm will give you just under 29mph....whilst at the same time have gearing low enough to get up any hill. The thing that would get me with a wolf tooth would be the gaps in gearing running a 11-40. I have some...

    Diet: Vegan Lifestyle

    I did do PBP and I was not a Vegan then and TBH gave no thought to nutrition. I had some shot blocks/biscuits on me should I become hungry but I never really eat them periodically throughout the ride as I paced myself throughout, only really opening up the taps in the last 200k. What I eat at...

    Diet: Low Carb and Ultra Cycling

    I think some balance needs to sought and myths need to be dispelled before we go down the whole 'sugar is bad, don't eat sugar, it gives you type II diabetes' (my paraphrase) Firstly the primary fuel for the human body is Glucose, 15-20 million years of human evolution and this is where we are...

    Disc Brakes on Vendetta V20

    I've checked and the rear rotor is 140mm. The number that Bill quotes is about right for the clearance between the rotor on the rear wheel and the frame - it is very tight. No spacing issues for the front wheel running a 160mm. My wheels are Ksyrium SL pro disk FWIW.

    Disc Brakes on Vendetta V20

    Might be wrong on this. I know that the rear rotor is smaller than the front. I think it might be 140mm, but it is tight to fit. I'll check tonight.

    Disc Brakes on Vendetta V20

    I have the mechanical TRP's on my bike and they work really well. The only drama I had with mounting was that the rear rotor (120mm) is very tight against the frame. So much so that I had to file about 1mm from the weld as the screws that held on the rotor were brushing against this. I have...

    Diet: Vegan Lifestyle

    When it comes to eating Vegan food, my diet is very, very simple. I eat the main staples, these being a large does of greens (kale and spinach), many bananas, white rice, whole oats and flax seeds. Breakfast is typically two smoothies, which will be a mix of half a large bag of spinach with...

    The environmental impact of what eating animals is doing to the planet. Who would have thought that Animal Ag contributes so much to the CO2 emissions? Not to mention solving world hunger.
