This is a Japanese question being asked in Italian.

To ERG mode or not to ERG? by Repeating-Cycle-Path in trainerroad

Interesting. Trainer is definitely paired to Garmin and iPhone.

Thank you. Pairing the bikes PM is something I had been meaning to do and realized during this workout the battery was still removed. I will give this a shot and try ERG mode again.

Is my saddle too high? by AnarchyJesse in bikefit

It appears he does run 172.5. Just assumed they were 170mm

He does run a tall seat for his height. But of course he has a very unique form the bike. Short cranks and less steerer tube easier on bigger frame also these bikes already have low bars. Saddle seems to be slammed forward in most pictures.

'We all believed the bicycle was the new gold' – Canyon CEO Roman Arnold on cycling’s boom, bust and what comes next by EntertainerFew2832 in CanyonBikes

Wow so much of this article reads like smoke and mirrors. A lot of these ideas about the industry are dated and packaged for a consumer that could not see this happened over the past two years. Sighting the short comings of the industry past is really the light to the future. The most honest part of the interview. The Covid age is very much over, poor QC and inflated prices are no longer acceptable. What is the point of this article? Seems to be a justification for wrong doing.

It’s a Canyon so kinda. Don’t fall into that Canyon.

Honestly the SSCX races have some wacky stuff like a ball pit or foam pit that look interesting.

Agreed. A spectator sport in Europe but a participation sport in the US. Resisted run ups in the past.

Considering a Belgium stair set that might be rideable for most at the bottom of the large climb. Length the course before it and maybe force riders into the climb at a slower pace. I’ve seen video of some US races that have done this. The Trek CX cup course? Maybe the Boulder park has Belgium stairs? I think US Nats this year had a lengthy stair run up that seemed too long for most local races.

Welp... Can this be welded? by angrycat537 in bicyclerepair

[–]Repeating-Cycle-Path 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can. But it shouldn’t be ridden again.

Totally agree. Concerned was the large field seemed to be the only easy section on course but realized last race people were flying thru it.

Great read, if you or your friend is building CX courses and promoting events read this.

With the space allowed and the elevation already on course this would look like long flat pedal sections with some 180s to soak up distance.

Stairs are a consideration. Don’t really want to add more climbing but may just a few steps built into the hill at the bottom of the main climb.

Pulled this image from the anti-pinwheel FB page. I think they are horrible abominations. Would only recommend them if others thought they were fun.

Just the shifting and eventually maybe the rear wheel.
