44 thru 50 chainring's and 15-17 cogs. I run a lighter gear on the street than on the rollers. Resistance trainers are uber boring for me. With the bigger gear it gives a good workout and having to keep the bike upright is more fun. I'll be back sprinting in the living room by Sunday. YEE HA!

That sounds neat actually! Do you have a fan pointed at you?

When I worked at Roots when I was 17, my supervisor was really dumb (and not very nice). Her name was Candace and one time I told her my full name was Dandace. She believed me. It was hilarious.

Yeah, it's a really hot ride for sure. I love the nuts on the front axle and how they fit right into the fork ends. And the 'hidden' seat post collar is pretty crazy.

Any distributor who sells rollers also sell the belts/bands. They are quite elastic so as long as you get one for the approximate drum size you will be fine. Expect to have to order one in at a shop. Or try Marinoni...they might sell ya one direct.
Edit. Double Showcase winner on Price is Right today. Just thought you all should know. Oh...and Drew Carey sucks farts compared to Bob.

You can't compare the two, it's just wrong. Any man at that age, that would do that fight scene in Happy Gilmour AND repeatedly gets hassled for hassling the models, gets a special lifetime award. Drew has giant shoes to fill. Bob was gettin' pretty testy at the end, I was waitin for the TAZER to come out. *Bouncing huggy contestant* ZAP...clickclickclcick ZAP.
Drew comes with all the sharps edges already sanded off. So safe for our times, vanilla. Games shows hosts need to be coked up or at least hammered when recording the show.
Ah the golden years of TV ... SURVEY SAYS!!!!!
