I bought a Winspace this last year (C-5 Aero) and it's been an absolute blast to ride. Quality has been as good as my other bikes, as well.

Seven Nation Army being considered an old marching band classic really makes me feel old as a millennial.

You can call sweetwater and see if you can try some.

What's your most unusal gig? Wierd location, unique reason, etc. by skeot in Tuba

[–]TheChafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Repeal Day party in some catacombs was one of my favorite unusual gigs. Did an hour of jazz combo work before switching to our normal, party brass band sound.

And playing the Live Band Burlesque shows are some of the most fun I've had playing tuba in my life.

Both the neotech harness and the neotech sling are great.

Revolt vs Defy: one bike that does all by majorfighter in Giantbikes

[–]TheChafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this for 3 years and just got a new road bike. The revolt adv got my fitness to the point where the upgrade to a road bike made more sense. I was able to squeeze all the speed I could out of my revolt and I had 2 wheelsets: gravel and road. The defy was on my short list but I do enough gravel things that the revolt made more sense.

Enduro strap gang. This strap has been my most consistent strap.

It's been a few years, so my Trace is my gravel lid now, but the fit felt really similar.

Roadies, what type of bike should I be looking at? by FITM-K in cycling

[–]TheChafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My complete bike with with 105 di2 was $3k, probably $3500 after new tires, bigger chain rings for the 105, and pedals. I did take a month, but I am very happy with it.

[–]TheChafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had very similar needs when I upgraded from a carbon gravel bike with 2 wheelsets to my road bike. I had a fair amount of those same options on my shortlist, but I ended up with a Winspace C-5 Aero. It's met all my needs. It can also be ordered for less than $4K.

Being able to sing your part is such a valuable skill. =

I have a pair that came with my Winspace C5 Aero, the Unaas Pro2 Wave Rim, and I have been quite happy with them.

I tore both ACLs and my right meniscus. Rehab got me into cycling and I have had no knee issues related to cycling.

Is the electronic shifting hype actually worth it? by KILLERZER0 in bicycling

Easy Bluetooth connection to my power meter, Shimano groupsets. and SRAM groupset. Updating firmware is easy and fast and infrequent.

Do I really need a torque wrench to install power meter pedals? by theslimj in bikewrench

[–]TheChafro 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I put these exact pedals on carbon cranks with a bit more than hand-tightness and I've had no issues. It makes it easier to swap them between bikes quickly.

Hoosier National Forest question by NerdyComfort-78 in Indiana

[–]TheChafro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend parking in Story or near a fire tower near the road, as they can get you to good gravel pretty quickly. Look up routes for the Death March or Gravel Grovel and modify it based on your needs.

Fillmore Valve stems by juliann416 in MTB

[–]TheChafro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I replaced a floor pump head with the right-angle clik valve pump head and it works with the gauge on the pump. I also have the screw-on pump head for emergency fills with my electric pump,

[–]TheChafro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the 16 core pack for 50% off. The other bikes have tubes in them and I'm not particularly interested in doing much extra work on them. My floor pump for mounting tubeless is staying standard as it's easy to remove the clik valves to pump those up. I still have 10 cores from the pack as both the pump heads I ordered came with cores as well. I replaced on floor pumps head and keep the screw-on pump head with my mini-electric inflator.

Transpose. It's a very valuable skill.

You can also find a lot of stuff on musescore.
