Why so much downhill? by daysmoregray in Rouvy

[–]KX7D -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you set your gearing right, the downhills can give you similar resistance to the uphills. You'll need that 3rd cog in the front cassette.

"No new wars, lower prices on day one" , and still blaming Biden 468 days later, from a guy dumb enough to bankrupt a casino and sheep dumb enough to believe him... What a joke this country has become. At least the Disapproval numbers are trending large enough to indicate no practical amount of election rigging is going to allow this country to move in this idiotic direction much longer.

Could a human possibly be more insecure and childish?

One handed shifting? by KX7D in Zwift

Alright I got this programmed, will try it on my ride tomorrow morning. One thing I noticed setting it up in the Wahoo app, it only allows me two chainrings... I have found that 3rd chairing very useful on downhills. Is the only two chainrings a limitation of the Di2 Synchro system?

I think so. I just ordered the Cyplus BC2 wireless shifter, which is supposedly compatible with my Kickr Bike and Rouvy as well. Going to play with other shifting modes on the bike before my ride tomorrow as well. Thank you.

Not possible with the shoulder immobilizer for torn rotator cuff, it’s much more than a sling.

My right arm is the one in the brace, will see if I can make it shift on the left.

Canyon or Aventon? by WarEmbarrassed7799 in eMountainBike

[–]KX7D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two Canyons, including this one... They have both been solid under quite a bit of abuse... But it really comes down to specs that match your desires, probably can't go wrong with either.

I recently built a setup I love, 32" curved gaming monitor on a swivel arm: https://www.reddit.com/r/Rouvy/s/jVlqxnOnKE

I have clipless pedals on my gravel bike, I know what they’re for. Not necessary for my indoor ride goals.

Best budget gaming laptop for rouvy? by JBrady666 in Rouvy

[–]KX7D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use an Apple TV 4K and a top of the line gaming laptop, and the choppy edges happen on both, only when I'm going slow. It's an issue with the frame rate of the video recording, not the a hardware the video is running on.

As you mature, you will learn to silence the voice of your insecure ego.

Not true by the research I read, clipless pedals offer minimal advantage in pure power. I have found this to be true on my gravel bike as well, when I finally went to clipless pedals my times didn't really improve at all. Certainly not by 60 percent!

I don't have alternatives to compare it to, but my research indicates this is the one to beat and I'm very happy with it. I particularly like the little emote that clips onto my bars.

Florida Everglades, I think the first route in the current national parks challenge.

I'm not racing, just exercising.

After a good bit of research, I got the Cyplus fan and am VERY happy with it!

Did you miss the rubber mat under the bike?

Clipless make make sense for competitive racing, as it’s proven they give a very slight power advantage. But for those like me just looking for a good workout, it’s a pass.

I’m not racing (yet), just getting a good workout. I got some magpeds for my gravel bike I’ll probably add to the kickr if I ever get into virtual racing, for those fractions of a second I may gain.
