Someones a bit grouchy! :( I could average 50+ down a decent.

This is the Fred Thread. Thats what we use.

Im not buying a $200 Hub when i could use the $250 wheel set i have and they work fine. I don't think power is all that really important considering i don't race anymore. I go by cadence ( i don't even have a meter for that, I go by feel) and speed. Ohhh and time, I did 20 of those miles in 56 Min. It was close to a record. anyway for me.

You're the one who started comparing ewangs. And if you are going to compare ewangs, you might as well use a reliable metric.

I just measured my DA 7800 chain that has maybe 1200 miles on it. It's maybe good for another week or two and then the PBK measure thingy is going to declare it dead. Do DA 7800 chains just suck or am I just to damn strong.

As much as I prefer to think the latter, it's likely the former. Anybody have a chain recommendation that's quiet, shifts nice on DA 7800 and holds up well?

that's a silly thing to do. Do you like replacing cassettes and chainrings?

e-wang points. But we're talking bikes, so those points aren't worth much outside of BF :(

Does Jersey Shore inform viewers how people in NJ live, the way that Gossip Girl shows viewers how people in NYC live?

KiddSisko 07-28-10 09:44 PM

Another 1500 feet of climbing tonight. Tomorrow night I'll ramp it up to 3K on a different route.

Fred that!

It's frightening to think that Gomer here is intellectually well above average for Tennesseans.

I can't do a ride that has less than 1500 feet of climbing. Most have 3,000 feet or more.
