I saw the film on Apple TV when in Florida. Those riders just go for it. 3 hours sleep a night. One Canadian had his own powder so he could mix and just drink replacement meals for 15 days on the go as he needed a little more sleep than three hours a night. I reckon they just had a fleecy...

Love the Oval... Saved my knees and does the business. Works better with larger cranks than 155mm (as far as I can tell) but more swing on the front steering if the wind is howling.

This looks well good, I like eating pie, even if it's humble. Guess I do a halfway house and stick an inner tube with sealant. Good to know you found a link. I like the idea that due to my perseverance that you have ordered a front wheel that reduces the amount you fall off. I did a 50km ride...

LOL, I don't even like to change chainwheel now, if there is no on coming traffic I take a wider racing line when cornering :cool:

I will monitor it... I will mark a white line around the rim and then before every ride/during; I can look at the rim and see how it's travelled. Ironically the aura5 Bontrager carbon wheel won't hold the air and that is tubeless compatible. I haven't quite given up yet. It's a weird one. I...

That Silvio looks like great fun... wait to you get on a V20 :D You are doing great... Just love Cruzbike. I came off the handlebars of a mountain bike the other year, it takes ages for the pain to go but once you are on the Silvio / Vendetta ... you forget everything and just get a great big grin.

I haven't quite given up the idea. Be rest assured I am very astute when it comes to safety. Yes I realize that the rim is for clincher and that is why I chose R3 Bontrager TLR tires which are sold as a clincher tubeless ready. I did buy the version before that being the R2 TLR as this is...

I live in a hot climate. I also sweat a lot even in a gym,I always thought if you don't sweat it's not a workout. I tend not to pee but after suffering kidney stones , the doctor told me, "if you need to pee, pee". For me it's not worth holding it in. The pain of kidney stones is not to be...

www.light-bicycle.com is one of those companies that you can negotiate with. I have lighter spokes on this and the hub has ceramic bearings. So I am good to go. They even give you cork brake pads to go with the carbon wheel.

Well I have sized up and read a lot. It appears a 25mm tyre is best for a 23mm rim. My inner rim is 17mm as far as I can tell as the rim has a lip for a clincher tyre. I guess if I ran 26mm tyres on a 23mm rim I would loose a percentage of the aerodynamics but not sure how much...

I am going to use Bontrager; their sealant is good and their tires are a little more forgiving.

The rim outer width ordered was for a 23mm so pretty sure the inner width is a little larger than 17mm, when I get back tonight I will measure up. I was going to put a 26mm tubeless tire on it at the weekend. The freehub is a lot louder than my Mavics. Guess that could be a good thing unless...

So going tubeless on a 80mm deep rim, what sort of valve to get in order to make this wheel tubeless? I bought this from www.light-bicycle.com , and it looks pretty good. Keep you posted...

Hey Joe, I know this subject is close to your heart. I couldn't find the old thread to post it on so I knew you would like to read about it. It's on the subject of frame consistency. Carbon / aluminium trade offs. After the correspondence we had there seem to have developments on Kickstarter...

I suspect, that the cleats work best in their most rearest position (nearest to the heel)?

you are not alone. Mine are probably like yours with carbon soles. I am interested in seeing the power transfer in both torque and how its spread out on the foot. I decided on look ceo 2 max. What about you and how is your wrist; you must be itching to get out on the road by now?

I played the video 4 times. Yep and totally agree it makes you more visible. I had a similar idea of creating a kite in the shape of a windsock that would extend itself from a gravity weight from the seat post. But I love your simplicity and it works marvellously.

I second this. Larry is amazing. I look at how fast he is spinning and in the Sebring video it's really really high considering that he usually likes to be around 84 RPM? I am sorry I didn't get to say hi to you but I did get to chat with Gayle. You seemed somewhat unapproachable when I saw you...

That was indeed a great read. I really appreciated it.

I have a dilemma , I am so attached to the yellow V2.2 with Ultegra 6800 11 spd groupset that I don't want to sell it. It's such a great ride and it is so brightly gold I think it can be seen miles away. (Very good for Spanish roads) . However I think I might have to as I want to buy the Shimano...
