Mount the light to the head tube?

Some of the lights come with a stretchy rubber strap for mounting, instead of the round plastic bracket. The one I have works fine with my 3T aero drop bars. Don't remember the model off the top of my head, will try to find out later and report back.

get a garmin mount with a gopro attachment on the bottom and put your light there?
if not that, helmet mount works, too |

Assuming this is the one you mean, the mount part is the problem. The Giant Contact SLR Areo doesn't have any round space to attache the mount. - https://www.amazon.com/Tate-Labs-Uni...+lab+universal

Anyone have a solution to mount a light on aero road handlebars?
Our Wednesday group rides are edging on sundown this time of year and none of my lights will mount on my Giant Contact Aero road bars... I could probably suction cup down a car GPS on my Cervelo aero bars they are so huge.

Any of you 11 speed folks have a 10 speed Sram cassette with a 27 or 28 you're willing to part with for a bit of cash? I had a 27, brand new, but I can't find it since the move. In a box somewhere I'm sure.
The 25 isn't cutting it around here with a standard and a fat ass. Thanks. |
I think I have one I could part with. I'll have to look when I get home.
I haven't gone 11-speed yet, but I'm thinking about making the transition. It looks like I might be able to get a really good deal on eTap, so I think I may finally make the transition. |

I have power/cadence! Have to put the wire above the bar, not below, seems consistent. Now to find time to ride the bike again.

I think I have a 28 that you can have for shipping ($5 or so probably). I'm sure I have a 26 too if you want that. PM me your address.

While going through my bike stuff I came across a couple of 10 speed SRAM Red XG-1090 cassettes in good shape that I meant to sell last year but totally forgot about.
I listed them here if anyone is interested: http://www.bikeforums.net/sale/10775...5-11-28-a.html |

SRM PowerMeter SRM Wireless Upgrade |

Looks like SRM is offering a $500 credit to anyone who wants to upgrade from wired to wireless.
SRM PowerMeter SRM Wireless Upgrade They quoted me a ridiculously good price to upgrade the internals if my spider was a certain type, and I could use either my existing head or get a PC7. Unfortunately first indication is that the spider is not compatible. For the moment all my bike related purchases are on hold so there's that. |

If you haven't done so already, you should post them to the FB group Online Swap Meet.

Thanks for the link, I didn't realize it applied to a complete upgrade. Also I didn't realize they did just an SI spider so that's a huge break on price. They seem lower in price overall also, I haven't looked in a bit.

Anyone used Fast Forward F6R wheels? More specifically their 60mm tubulars. What is the impression?
|
UCI apparently approved Far Sports wheels: UCI Approves FarSports Wheels - Far Sports USA
I'm not exactly sure what that means. I thought the approval process was designed to assure the items were structurally sound, but with anything out of the UCI, I'm never sure that's reliable. Could just be they paid a fee to the UCI to get approved. Anyway, folks looking for cheaper carbon wheels may now have a greater sense of security buying some of these options. |
I'd still be concerned about quality control. What's to stop them from sending UCI a GOOD set of wheels that would pass some integrity testing and then selling off the rejects via ebay? I guess the other manufacturers could be doing the same, but the other manufacturers also have pretty consistent durability track records.
