Re: the bead with P4Es, I've never had a hint of a problem with that. |
9070. That's 11 speed Dura Ace Di2 for Fudgy.

So problem with my new bike: My front wheel rubs on my fork sometimes. I kept thinking it was my brake pads but I couldn't understand why because I kept checking and it looked fine. Apparently its the wheel/fork. :(
It spins true, but just for some reason appears to be slightly offset to the left side of the fork gap. Do I need to just tighten the hub or something? or is the wheel bad? |

Also, what happens if you flip the wheel (so the QR lever is on the wrong side)?

Where does it rub the fork? If it is lateral play it should hit the brake pads first. Is it hitting the bottom of the fork crown?
I'm going to try flipping the wheel. Would explain why I haven't noticed it until after I took it on a trip last weekend (so took the front wheel off to put in car). |
have the dish checked ..

I think I'm going to hang on to the Reynolds tubulars. I ordered a cheap pair of tires to replace the Tufos - Specialized Espoirs - because I can get them at cost and figure if I screw these up mounting them, it won't be a great loss; also, as a training tire, they should be relatively bombproof. I'm surprised that they can offer 220 tpi and the newest Gripton compound at that price point. The plan for next season is to replace the Espoirs with the S-works Turbo Allaround 2 after Rouge-Roubaix. The Allarounds won't be available for a couple of months, anyway.

So you are going to use the Psimets as training and pit wheels?

New things are usually that way.... growing pains with Pioneer huh. I'm actually thinking of trying Garmin Vector.. I don't know why.. curious about left and right I guess, since my left knee is suspect. Using powertap currently but wifes bike has stages.
I think it would be easier if the directions weren't clearly translated poorly from Japanese! But, now that it's all done, the wifi upload is nifty. |
I ordered Vectors.. Large pods to go with my THM M3.. which I have no BB for since they are out of stock :( Winter project ...that and converting my Di2 to internal seatpost battery from external... gotta get those grams back for heavier pedals, that and rebuilding rear wheel with no powertap.
Pioneer has a pretty good deal going.. http://www.bikerumor.com/2014/09/20/...ds/#more-87043 |

Pioneer has a pretty good deal going.. IB14: Pioneer Adds Cycling Computer Bundles, Integrates Di2 & Auto Strava Uploads If you do have leg issues the Left Right Balance helps out a lot. There is also pedal efficiency and torque effectiveness which after reading some journals I don't think are as critical. |

I didn't buy the power meter, just the head until. I would wager a large portion of whatever we're wagering that force-vector stuff is useless. Like runners asked to change their stride, focusing on a different pedal stroke/stride probably leads to lower efficiency.

$39 for the 6800s and $160 for the 7900. the 6800s are technically used (=installed), but the teeth are in as close to new shape as they can be when they've ever had a chain touch them. low miles. |
Semi interested in an SRM depending on price. Be nice to ditch wires

avoid.....ESPECIALLY in 52/36. they made them light, but a larger ring with smaller BCD exacerbates the problem. if you're going to go 52/36, you want stiff rings.
