Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

PowerTap price drop

FYI, EdinaBike just dropped their PowerTap prices. SL going for $895, was $976 last week...

That is all.

(No association with them, blah blah, blah)

I thought they used to make a complete wheel for slightly more than those prices shown, very slightly more.

That was probably a Pro wheel. Now they have SLs for $1k

I had a pro hub built into an open pro for about $840 delivered in Jan. I was very pleased with their service and would recommend them.
