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

New Tacx Galaxia rollers, cheaper than emotion, we'll see if they're any good. Figure I'll keep my Cyclops Super Magneto as well. It's been over 20 years since I used rollers but always enjoyed them, hoping to add some spice to longer trainer rides.

Don't bother. The tops of the straps are kind of like a cross between neoprene and packing tape. They just dropped the price on the SC 12s, Have a pair of them that I love, so I think I'll be swapping them out

Good to know..that sucks about the straps, everything capo I've ever ordered has been really nice. Guess I've always been fortunate.

Got the black friday discount on it a little early, and I'm having them add the commandpost remote seat dropper. Should be ready to roll next week.

Me too. The Volta bibs were my first disappointment. Have a Drago and a couple of Nico jerseys that I couldn't be happier with. Quality is on a par with my Assos stuff and the materials are lightyears ahead. Wondering if anyone has any experience with the Ceramica bibs?
