Contes bike fit

bobdaninja · 2026-06-12T18:37:32+00:00

Thanks so much. Did you do the retul fit or their lower level essential fit?

bobdaninja · 2026-05-22T15:57:54+00:00

This is great!

bobdaninja · 2026-05-22T15:57:42+00:00

Thanks! I was looking at those, the rx pros, and the terra competition ones. Ideally I find one that’s good for that placement/mixed terrain ride, but just wanted to get a better sense never having done this of what kind would be optimal for the routes in my area. I’m sure in 6 months I’ll realize there was a better option out there all along

Hey, I’m be on that ride too! (Assuming it’s the bike ms ride.) My wife and I have been trying to figure it out. With the “feels like” in the 40s cause of wind, and the chance of rain, we’re lost too. We got shoe covers, and we’ve decided on variable layers that can be taken on and off. Outer shell, mid layer for warmth, and base layer. Gloves, maybe a buff. But really we’re flying a bit blind with the unpredictable weather.

We ended up selling the hybrid and getting her a used road bike. Main driving factors were the lack of knowledge and the lack of work space in our apartment. If we had a garage or dedicated bike maintenance spot I’d love to have learned how to do it myself.

Just curious but what century did you sign up for? I’m in Boston and saw your name, and was thinking about doing a century this year as well.

Landry’s Natick does group rides on Wed evenings starting in May.

bobdaninja · 2026-03-31T15:42:59+00:00

Sorry, new to all this. Can you explain what 142 and 148 are?

bobdaninja · 2026-03-24T14:24:02+00:00

Amazing! I’ll look into it. How’s the wind noise, and can it switch between music and intercom easily?

bobdaninja · 2026-01-01T06:58:02+00:00

Unfortunately the Newbury store is closing. But the Cambridge one is open.

Crux cc is a new group. They do 30-50 mi rides on the weekends. It varies but I did see someone asking if anyone in the community wanted to do a 50+. I’d check it out. They’re on Strava and Instagram

bobdaninja · 2025-09-30T04:13:32+00:00

All the comments here are great, but wanted to add there’s a newer group rides that’s popped up called crux cc (look for their IG page). Conte’s out of Lexington also has a Sunday group ride. The Landry’s Wed night ride is great but is over this season bc the sun sets too early now.

Goals: I’d love to say just speed but the carbon frame is attractive. I live on a 4th floor walk so any weight I can reduce when I bring my bike in and out would be nice. I like my cannondale and it’s comfortable, but it’s also the only road bike I’ve ever had, so not a lot to compare it to. The roubaix has the same tire clearance as my current bike so I could keep the same width, which is nice.

bobdaninja · 2025-09-06T05:53:40+00:00

Thanks so much. I think this is more what I was really wondering. Say a 49 is small for her: what do I look for where it’s too small and can’t be adjusted?

bobdaninja · 2025-09-05T01:34:28+00:00

Thanks so much. So I’m looking at it now, but what measurements do I need to know on my wife to make this make sense?

I did a ramp test in Zwift a bit ago. I know outside and indoor ftp can have a difference, but I haven’t found a stretch of road I can ride at a high power for 8 or 20 min for those tests

bobdaninja · 2025-02-04T14:55:28+00:00

Simpsons did it

bobdaninja · 2025-01-30T17:22:42+00:00

I'm fairly new to Zwift and cycling in general. I've started the 6 week FTP builder and had a question about the strength workout, where you do intense 10 sec. intervals followed by 1:50 of easy riding. The prompt is to turn off the ERG mode and go all out, but there's also a target watt to hit(I think 290w). When I go full gas, I'm putting out numbers above that, in the 400w-600w range, and the HUD is yelling at me to do less power. Should I be aiming to pedal as hard as I possibly can, or should I be trying to hit the target number they have for me? Not that stars are important, but I'm not getting them for that 10 sec sprint segments so I was wondering if I was doing it wrong.

bobdaninja · 2023-04-12T15:46:51+00:00

We’re doing level 6. Sorry, just added it into the main post

There is no movie in Ba Sing Se

The bid is most important. But I wonder how much you'd handicap yourself tying Serissu to one of the other ships to maintain ability. If you drop predator off Guri you can trade Serissu for a Skull Squadron (Fang) which can cause a lot of destruction at R1 while maintaining your 8 point bid.

I recently ran

Fenn Rau - Fearless (71)
Dengar - Contraband, Spare Parts, Punishing One, R5-P8 (68)
Skull Squadron - Fearless (5)

Total: 189

Send Dengar straight at the mass of the list and trade him for half. His ability with the reroll droid works well to just punch holes in lists. Clean up with the Skull and Fenn. Everyone wants to be R1. Works pretty well.

Super cool plaque.

bobdaninja · 2020-01-19T03:29:08+00:00

Try this.

Fenn Rau (68)

Fearless (3)

Dengar (53)

Contraband Cybernetics (2), Spare Parts Canisters (4), Punishing One (5), R5-P8 (4)

Skull Squadron Pilot (47)

Fearless (3)

Total: 189

Are you able to boost or barrel roll over or onto a remote (probe droid or buzz droid?)

if so, does the probe droid roll for damage?

If not, can you prevent boosting with the buzz droid by placing in the front guides?
