I think that guy is hitting 100%. Two threads, both locked.

I guess if I Strava'd, or had a Garmin, or even thought about it I could figure out how far and how fast. :o #dontcare

Please keep up Sir. Cadence is the talk of the town these days.

...as a personal favor to me, you could all draft letters to the Loctite people asking why they continue their ridiculous "blue stuff in the red tube, red stuff in the blue tube" marketing strategy.

What color is in the green tube?

I suspect they started out with only one product. When they brought out another grade, it was too late to claim the matching tube color.

Bottles on the bars is really the best thing ever. I'm surprised it hasn't made a comeback.

I tease LoP about Strava all the time whether the activity engaged in is a walk down to Starbucks, a roll in the hay, or running around the apartment dragging a brake cable while a happy cat tries to catch it. #didyoustravathat

...yeah, I don't get it either. It's an especially convenient spot for an older frame with no bottle braze ons. I have a stash of the Nashbar adapters, but it's almost used up. Time to reorder.

Tri sippy cups don't count!

Huffy cruisers have a cupholder on the front bars. You could probably put a bottle in it. Or a can.

I have a few of these. One of them is even on a bike with bottle cage bosses. Just wish they had 'em in 31.8

Just about every bike I saw in Key West had a beveridge holder on the bars.

No water bottle cages on the cross bike at the moment.

LesterOfPuppets 11-18-15 10:23 PM

About 20% of CX racers around here toss/stash their water bottles right before the starting gun.

...yeah. You have to do some creative work with a rat tail file on the Nashbar thingies if you want to even go up to a Cinelli bar. PIA
