hi ratz my deda crononero straight bullhorns are great. love em. but i am slim with chicken legs . they would not suit someone not slim unless they were short due to the 44omm width as you note. they run parallel with my boom. after about 4oooklm i have finally dialed the bike in. now i have...

as a recent learner on a v i would think they would be problematic and add to the steep learning curve. i have xo twisters not gripshift on my gto trike. i think the twist movement would be adding to your initial instability. hamish is spot on with the extra position on the hoods being...

1.all great advice here spinning/ use of momentum /use of a power meter to guage effort and most important practice and more practice riding up hills slowly./ be prepared to walk with a smile. 2.if you know your route on the day includes the big hills try and lighten your bike as much as you...

"snicker" not lycra clad man. for i have a vendetta with thee. go ahead make my day........ heh heh." seriously how unworthy of a cyclist to snicker at your V. what an ignoramus. still maybe his nether regions were getting sore like his neck , wrists and personality......... not that i am...

yes ifan is right practice makes perfect.....well improves.... . the old adage "you need to learn to love hills." holds true except i have never learned to love them. so i wish to be able to climb hills without burning matches (or hurting my recently operated knee) so much for long distance...

good luck larry and eric. have loads of fun.

a amazing she is so life like :) seriously nice scarf. very smart.and a labour of love i would imagine.

it would be nice to have a specific frame bag for the area like the catrike frame bags.....but. i take it you have seen the offering on the accessories page for the v and s30 frame bag.

thanks slim. will give it some serious thought. being able to spin faster with shorter cranks is a good idea. definitely need another option for climbing above 6% at less than 250 watts besides walking...... wolftooth or compact crankset with shorter crankarms. they both make sense. one cheaper...

102 wow you are game david. i wonder if the truck driver cared how close he was. you want to stay off that road if trucks are regular users.

hi larry the measurement was 400mm. i think as robert said the only difference is length of chainstay.

ahh larry given the opportunity we all like to fly. gutsy for sure. the bikes are made for just exactly this it is just the riders who have to let the brakes off if we are game.... roadrunner alright. thanks for sharing that one.

wow larry that was thrilling. butt squirming and clenching might i add too. your freewheel sounded like a swarm of angry wasps. what a ride. the lean and coming over the double lines and subsequent lean into the corners was eek scary. personally on my catrike 700 i have hit 93klm per hour. i...
