Don't show this to mrs ratz. If it was just the frame kit..... sigh.... don't need another bike don't need another bike. don't need ......

Hmm that's interesting. I couple probably whip up an Cycleops routing based on FTP. Then for the test; just program the software with a fake FTP of 250. And have hills with Candence prompts; then it's just a matter of putting in hills at 60%, 80% and 100%. Then we could just both ride the...

Stephen, Great to see you hit the forums. We can learn a lot about lighting characteristics having you around when you have time. Question: Would it ever be practical to wire up a "remote" button to control the lights. For a rig like Slim's if he had the "dimmer" button up at the handlebars...

Not quite. What we are expecting is that OCP#1 reads the highest power and OCP#5 reads the lowest at a fixed cadence. Where the comes in relative to a Wheel Sensor or a Power Trainer is the part that we need to test. After dinner tonight I'm going to prep the trainer for Silvio/Vendetta mode and...

High or Low depends on where you set your OCP. An OCP of #2, 3, or 4 should read low. #1 or further should read high. The question comes down to whether the meter is sampling 1 time per revolution. Multiple revolution per minute can be problematic if the meter software algorithm expects round...

That is not a one hand rated hill or road surface. I suspect my brakes would have been warmer than yours

Yeah; you can usually find Sidi's on Amazon or Ebay for about $150 once you know your since. The reason they are worth the price is they tend to last 7-10 years. If you query biking forums it's easy to find people that will confirm the longevity. Keen's are definitely popular; the Trikers seem...

Ok everyone circle up; and Cheer for Duncan..... Looking forward to your panner testing report.

Now that's the way to go to a class reunion.

Finally they went to the printer today...... :D

We use sand and stone for the winter snows and it lasts on the roads until mid summer ; suspension doesn't help with that. This Technically it was 2 appendages 1 thumb and 1 finger. Yeah I think I hit 42mph on that hill not pedaling but I came from the stop light so I had another 100 ft of...

Who'da think told Jim P about them ? o_O In my defense: I've been sitting her all day doing asset documentation for new computer systems sourced from far far far too many separate vendors. You guys are the only thing keeping me from scratching my eyes out.

Some wives get flowers.... Mine.... Bike parts

CB sells the comfort and you can get the standard ones from Ventisit. I had both (Standard on silvio, and comfort on Vendetta) last season. On the new Vendetta carbon seat; the standard is comfortable I road on it last night. On the old seat the comfort was a must for the vendetta. If racing...

That's mostly been debunked; it's highest effect seems to be on Impaired operators, Booz and Drugs. But the jury is split. There are flashing modes with semi random patterns that's what I run during the day just incase.

It's more about the road surface of that hill than the bike.

I use to do that on the catrike 700. It was good for almost a full 2mph getting from 58 to 60mph on the sister hill to the one in the video. And no I won't run the Vendetta up to 60 on that hill the road quality isn't good enough to do that on a two wheeler as it require pedaling.

Your foot shape looks well suited for a Sidi - Wide. Something in the Dominator or Genius family. http://guides.wiggle.co.uk/sidi-cycling-shoes-fitting-guide/ Not sure why but the UK sites always have better inventory on the wide stuff...

Yeah that's the pawls; You don't want me coasting on your butt because you'll know I'm there, it's great for sitting on the rear of a pace line where they are all pedaling and I'm coasting. Funny part is that's my Aero wheel. My winding day wheels on the Silvio are the exact opposite and the...
