Ok you asked For the tires; you should consult Tim Turner for a starting point; he's probably thought about it more than anyone else; in the end wheels are about the Hub, the Tire, the weight; in that order. A Great Hub trumps everything else until you cover the spokes...

yes yes it does I'm pretty sure the guy on the Trek Project One that I tailgated 40 minutes on the downtown Minneapolis MUP thought it looked Sinister too. Hey kept looking back at me; and I kept waving and saying out loud; "yep still here." I think I helped him hammer out his...

From Pedal to road Oh nelly this is a fun one. Ok I have both the Silvio 2.1 and the Vendetta TT in glorious fast yellow. (see what I did there) I've also had more stupid expensive DF's than I care to count and a CATrike 700. Not to mention the Quests in the garage. I can...

Another Couple Sweet another husband and wife Silvio Dual. Sounds like you are doing great. Mrs Ratz did her first 52 mile group ride with 6000 other bikes in August, her first Silvio ride was in May after 15 years off of bikes.

Get it got it good. And there we have the post of the month and it is only Dec 1st. The good news is it only gets better from here. Congratulations, I'd offer you some kool-aid but I see you're already on your second cup. 15 hours, now that's determination; after 15 hours on the bike...

So that's where almost a pound went away Earlier in the thread it was speculated exactly how much the seat changed. Well here you go, the answer is in. Thanks to the seat I damaged filming rolling the rollers, and later good folks at Cruzbike letting me order the new one as the...

Back to the photo Back to the photo. One has to assume that When Gary saw you roll up with that big aero box and aero wheels, that he quickly picked an uphill route that favored his lighter bike and disc brakes. :) I know I would.

No spaces darling Pictures posted to the first message in a thread can't have Spaces or Special Characters in the name. Don't ask me why, but I finally figured that out a little while back. As for the photo and the weather; yep jealous. It's a bitter cold 12F here, heading for 6F today.

There's an app for that So actual training has begun. Application evaluation is under way to find stuff that works. Stop reading now if this stuff bores you. I'm not DCRainmaker and I don't play him on TV. I'm only documenting what I'm doing to help myself think through all the...

For those that like the Virb Adding to the list of camera options. Clever Training is clearing out it stock of the original VIRB cameras. While not the fancy ones with emedded GPS; sill a good camera and a lot of us have GPS tracks from other sources any how.

"Too hard" to machine The CNC shops I spoke to couldn't come up with a way to machine to round connector consistently so we abandoned the effort to make a machined run.

The Light of day Love it. Out in the light that Green looks awesome. The welds do pop nicely for a very industrial look.

A thought Ivan, My Silvo 2.1 frame has two rear brake exit holes. Any way you could just use that 2nd hole if you have that on your 2.0 frame?

Confirmation Took me a bit but I found the article that confirms using the MTB RD will work with the Road gear. So that pretty much covers those that want a 40T on the rear cassette. Other interesting tidbits in the Q&A as well...

To hack or not to hack. To hack or not to hack. I'm a hack so you might want to wait for Steve or Buddy to chime in. Amateurs like us should use Boelube Then you need a drill bit depth stop to make sure you don't drill clean through the back side; this one is good and cheap...

just a little fun. Matej What's the saying? never explain the joke...... But darn that language barrier does get in the way some times. Mostly a little fun in the form of an omage to irobot for the daily/hourly forum readers. As I resisted the idea of buying a new camera I realized...
