@CyclingResearch "The authors declare no conflict of interest"...ummm, except for the fact that they represent Classified Cycling?? LOL Also, "results" figure looks a bit light, if you will...just one gearing combo compared? No mention of chainline effects (I don't think that's in Spicer model)?

@velovelovelo__ Hmmm...I'm thinking Wound Up Composites didn't notice anything "missing" ;-)

[Tom Anhalt @tanhalt]

@cyclesetforme @CyclingResearch It was NOT...and the reasoning behind not doing the Pre-CP5 "blowout" is a bit specious IMO. You aren't testing the validity of the test if you don't actually do the full test <sigh>

@daniellloyd1 We all did...fun times

@cyclingraptor @daniellloyd1 @colly20061 Because the don't actually work...(to quote the headline of a really good article on the subject) "because your body won't let them". In short, too many degrees of freedom in the leg. They just cause your ankle to flex differently so that the main driving muscles work the same.

@Dadsaysjokes That's what the "foam brick" is for...

@velovelovelo__ Put 2 (or 3?) chainrings on the front and then the cassette won't have to move as far laterally to keep a straight chain-line <LOL>

@xavierdisley @Cyclingnewsfeed Whenever I see a rider with straight arms in the drops, my mind says "Your bars are too low" 😆

@pbljung @dcrainmakerblog I wonder how long the sample times are in the "speed sweep" tests they describe in that link? IME, one needs to "warm up" the tire for quite a long time (in the range of 5-10 minutes) to account for tire warmup, since Crr drops with ^ temps. If samples short, Crr falsely high.

@zachkruse2 @jasonjwilde @_newspapers @WiStateJournal @TomOatesWSJ @MarkTauscher65 So maybe he should ask Bubba Franks why he let Strahan go right around him so easily on the play?

@Cyclingnewsfeed Cranksets at 20 paces?? 🤣

@alex_howes Unless you just got rid of a coaster brake bike...you actually were already for quite some time ;-) #aRimISaDisc

@bikesnobnyc AKA "Standard Reach"...as in what was the norm. Yeah, it irks me to no end when people claim "disc brakes were necessary so we could run wider tires". So dumb.

[Tom Anhalt @tanhalt]

Been hearing a LOT on podcasts lately about how “MTB tires are faster on a gravel bike” and I have to point out that’s not a blanket statement. Depends highly on the tire…only a small # of MTB tires that it’s true for 😉

[Tom Anhalt @tanhalt]

@bikesnobnyc I call it the RAID system. Rim Aero Integrated Disc ;-)

@therealrchung need to weed out the "anti-agers" from the "super-agers", no?

[Tom Anhalt @tanhalt]

@csmayhew You use the term "wear out" loosely...and yeah, it's maddening having to throw away perfectly good shorts otherwise because of wimpy quality of a single panel.

@therealrchung @dcrainmakerblog ...which can, at times, be a bit difficult to locate...

@therealrchung @dcrainmakerblog Not the entire campus...just the "Employee Entertainment Center" 😆
