    That Jason Perez dork

    Yes at that speed road surface quality and brake tyre trust riding the vendetta are premium. It’s not so good getting air on the vendetta or any road bike at 100 klm / hr . Not much chance of coming back from an off . Great video Jason. Terribly exciting. Your bike handling skills do you...

    Road bike vs. recumbent comparison

    Ah very practical and simple a good solid sensible solution but.......... I just told my fsa Klite 170 mm wonder crankset which you rode on what you suggested. I could hear the gossamer pro triple and ultegra mid compact snickering and guffawing from inside the dark spares cupboard of doom. The...

    Riding in the cold (not really) poll

    Road bike vs. recumbent comparison

    Slim I really like the Cobb shorter cranks. Increased cadence and better form. Easy to spin up more aero and more room. Reduced movement . Great for training and track and trainer. But for long distance where your cadence falls away. I look at Larry o and even his cadence falls over...

    Riding in the cold (not really) poll

    Coldest around 7 am. Started at 5 am. Fog lifted around 11 am. Visibility about 10 m some pockets. Took it easy. Got in around 11.30 pm. Decided then and there 400 was enough. I had signed up for the 200 on Sunday but it was even colder. One cabin mate got in around 5 am in a heck of a way...

    Road bike vs. recumbent comparison

    Osiris your experience is absolutely not what I have found. I’m working with 280 -290 watts FTP with a body weight of 79 - 82 kg. So decidedly average but hey I’m 57 next birthday. I have repeatedly over years and tens of thousands of kilometres using power tap hubs found my power is the same...
