Looks like I need some "lighting" on this ride!

Better yet - cut a variety of foam wedges to put behind your seat pad. Start off with 30% recline if that works better, and then then work your way down to nothing but the seat!. I did not think I would ever be able to ride my Sivlio 2.0 when I got it (June - 2014), but practiced every day about...

Per Jim Parker: FSA brakes will fit nicely on the high mount position on the V20. I still need to get one for myself.

Hi David, I had something very similar happen to me this year. It was not quite the same but close: I am 56. What I was doing was regularly this summer was riding with an average HR of around 165 for 3,4 hours (weekly) when training for my Century attempt. Sometimes, not all the time, my heart...

Hopefully you've remembered to change the oil every 5 years or 50,000 miles! :)

Yeah - like a fire that cannot be quenched - take you breath away - cut your finger off to the stop the pain - kind of "burn". After you wake up from fainting over all that - then, yes it is amazing!

Or you can just pee in the seat pan and either pray for a shower or hose off the bike after the ride!

This will also come with time on the bike, but you will may never be able to take both hands off and ride and eat like you could on an upright. I would also experiment with liquid fueling if you ever do this again. I use Infinit and like it very much. You can customize the mixture to you...

Joe, Many places cell them. Here is one: www.blowoutmedical.com This is the SKU for a medium: Medium 28mm MEN5290_ea You can buy these if you want to practice at home on your trainer: 2000 ml Bag without Anti-Reflux Chamber KND3502_ea Tubing - 5/16 Inch x 18 Inch PVC with Adapter -...

One word: Condom- catheter OK - maybe two words - but they are really nice and worth the minor hassle. Hook a tube to it and stick in your shorts. We you gotta pee, you just whip it out (talking the tube now, not... ) and hang it over the edge - The warm pleasurable feeling of an emptying your...

OK - I guess I totally blacked out on the hill climbing part of the conversation - sorry about that. :)

sorry about your fall and road rash. I'm an expert on road rash from this year - Went down at least 5 times. First time was really bad and had about 1/4" of skin gone from my forearm. Make sure just coat everything with Silvaderm (or equivalent). It works miracles, and speeds the healing process...

Yes, but what about this guy? His heart is definitely not above his legs and he seems to be able to go pretty fast:

Joe, what kind of ceramic hybrid bearings did you end up using. Where you able to do a benchmark with the wheels before and then after to see what the difference was? Could you feel anything difference with the ceramic bearings, or where there just too many changes at the same time?

David, one thing to think about is that when you are going up hills, especially steep ones, the aero factor is not that big of a deal. Laying back lower would probably not help you, as the farther back you lay the harder it is to make power. Better to lean up and shorten your hip angle, as I...

This thread is "officially" hi-jacked for good now (no sense in starting a new thread I guess) - Sorry Gary! Well, I did it. I took Ken's (prototype FWD-MBB - Zockra Clone = ZC) bike to my "super secret test facility" Sunday afternoon after church and rode it for about 5 minutes. I had my VIRB...

Get well Abbott! I pray you figure out what is going on soon and you can be back to riding. We all seem to hit bumps in the road like this from time to time. (Me, my heart was doing this crazy thing of going up in to 230-240 bpm while riding. Spent most of the summer with 3 different...

Great job Jason! Watched it all through the day - wishing I was there of course! 24 hour rides & suffering appear to go hand in hand. (i.e. if you aren't suffering, then you probably wear taking it easy) Knowing you, I doubt if that would ever be an issue!

Cogs are 11-19 (9-speed) - nice and tight! I'm thinking of wearing something like this for my ride today: (heads up display inside the helmet of course) :)

I am planning on going out and trying to ride it tomorrow at the track after church. I've already got my VIRB camera mounted on the handlebar stem, and my wife is also going to video me with another camera from the sideline. I can't wait to see what happens, especially since the maker and the...
