    Took The Plunge (figureatively)

    Shorter people will need to cut an inch or 2 from the slider (the part that slides Inside the tube) this is normal. See my build diary on brol if in doubt. (link in signature)

    6-12-24 World TT Championships, Report from Borrego Springs: brief

    Now drop in a watts / kg column and we start to get some interesting stuff. I didn't realize Baloh was that light; he looks bigger than 175 at that height.

    6-12-24 World TT Championships, Report from Borrego Springs: brief

    That is ok most people do not, it has taken me 2+ years to get my head around all this and I'm still constantly reading..... but I think we can continue to get smarter about it here as a group with these good discussions. So to my point, you can't use power data in just watts to compare riders...

    6-12-24 World TT Championships, Report from Borrego Springs: brief

    Another day another power discussion. watts per kg is the only comparable power number and then It's only comparable if measured on the same exact test bike. :eek: This is why races are determine by Distance over Time :confused: ; therefore Jason finished third and I'm pretty sure there is a...

    XShifter...new wireless shifting option

    FWIW I had reviewed the website and concluded the same thing. I wrote that up; but then decided not to post since I wasn't 100% sure and didn't want to taint the thread. They have since really improved the info on the kickstarter site as well. The one I would think would work would be this one:

    Little tweaks

    Wheelbuilder.com email benny@wheelbuilder.com tell him the wheel type and ask for Qty 2 non-drive side covers. He should be able to send yo a quote. You may have to measure you wheel for them but I believe they have the dimensions for the that one.

    Cruzbike on indoor rollers.

    Larry's double rollers are not connected for by the drive wheel. Reverse it and you get power loss to the fan, but I also suspect and his roller powered fan would be powered backwards and not work. Just a guess

    Cruzbike on indoor rollers.

    You would then need to add cross members to hold the wood up in the middle. Larry went for fast and simple

    Wheel and or Spoke Lights?

    Hi Chris, My comment was based on a lot of research done last fall (2015) when researching the product lines available. Specifically reading everything a KickStarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bikelights/nori-lights-bicycle-illumination-system/comments and a few places I do not...

    Problem with swift is you'd have to spend the time building the training "workouts" in the editor. That's the edge Trainer Road has it's library is just massive; which is a big time saver. I like to watch movies and listen to audio books on the trainer. For those that really like the VR ride...

    Brief report from Bike Sebring 2016

    Prototype #3 might have made an appearance at a recent show back on the secret test track. I wouldn't put any plans on seeing anything production in under 18 months. Jim is determined it will happen; and Maria is determined it will be "right" before it's "real" that means when you see it will be...
