I would encourage you to look at your climbing a little bit.
Starting off too fast and having out of control breathing is a big problem.
I'm going to guess that you have had some tingling of...

I send my small frame clients out to the grass park in flat pedals and regular shoes. "Go out and rub your foot on the tire doing slow U turns."
You'll soon learn what it takes to avoid it,...

I am looking for competitive and professional-level women cyclists.


Guess its a non profit. ;)

This is a very common upgrade for Vita's here at our shop. We get great results. We usually change the handlebar to one with around a 40mm rise. If you have the base VITA take a look at Profile...

The Saris BONES RS will fit the SX4 and is IMO the best rack on planet. Only two straps. Goes on SUPER easy and is very very stable. Made in USA.

If you are looking for an alternative rack...

Please don't take offense IBFP. Wasn't intending to make any comment about any one person in particular. I chose your quote because I found it very shocking to hear a fitter say that someone who...

The issue is partly the fault of the manufacturers who are stocking such ridiculously short stems on WSD bikes. We get it all the time people who want to go UP a frame size to get a longer reach....

[QUOTE=IBrakeforPastry;696614]The seat angle is about 1 degree shallower, making the horizontal top tube measurement almost 15 mm longer. They shortened the stem about 5 mm, but still. Maybe I'm...

46T will work just fine as a large chainring. Cyclocross riders do it all the time and lots of people use them on winter bikes when we have no business using a 53 anyway.



Well, technically...

Can any of you who still hold a grudge here name any other major company's founder/CEO who has flown out to personally apologize and post "I own it and apologize" to the world of the web?

The...

BW. I have to respectfully take issue with your assumption that a light too weak "to see" is possibly bright enough to "be seen"
There is no such thing as this distinction. Any of my sales...

All your criteria are going to be met with a Light and Motion TAZ 1000 or a TAZ 1200. About $250-$300
It will carve a hole in a drivers eyeballs,
It will give you a swath of light penetrating...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe there's an older study comparing the foam helmets with lycra covers. (stick instead of slide) vs the plastic microshell systems more common today. (more slip...

If you ride at high exertion it is often too hot to use a rain jacket. We used just get wet in moderate rain. We had to dress as if we were NOT going to stop riding. Then we carried a cheap, non...

Base layers. Be able to pick from a range of weights depending on temperature
Head and Ears covering. I like to have a separate head and ear cover so I can regulate.
Clear or Yellow lens eyewear....

The nice thing about the full tights is you can pull them OVER THE TOP of your shoe covers to minimize the water running down into your shoes.
The hat is smart, even if you just pull it on at stops.

A 90 stem isn't stubby on a 50cm frame. It should handle nicely with that length. That said, you may be better off comparing REACH measurement rather than TT measurement. You may find that it is...

Hi Wahine, - et al "purists"
Just to give you a little perspective. I did three upgrades for customers this past summer to Di2. ALL THREE were women with small hands, one with severe arthritis...

I have to agree this sounds mostly like a Caren problem.
You are making the common mistake thinking because you know how to ride a bike you know all about bikes and the way bike shops work. Kind...

1. Yes it should be fun.

2 I hear and read this a lot. I think its fair to let a conversation get started with a male salesperson WITHOUT this baggage between you. If it truly is this...

I'm not trying to be flippant here but if your mind is made up that you are "interested in" a particular make/model/color/style of bike without seeing it or riding it..... the reasons you like the...

Someone once told me the only suspension a road bike has is the tires. I've also read that the most performance you can get for the money is in tires.
So my #1 recommendation is to get the best...

No Option? You may think you can justify it but it doesn't make it right. I'll say it...That is a crap thing to do to a business. :mad:

If I did that to your parent's small business you...

All good and correct points. :)
Lots of great points brought up in this thread. There are some really experienced riders on TE.
