Stop Using Sealant Injectors

There are lots of tubeless “horror” stories available around how it doesn’t work, and I’ve had plenty of these myself. After spending some time over the last year analyzing why tubeless failed for me, when it did across many sealant brands, I found what I think is a massive part of the problem.…

Great Cycle Challenge 2021

I am participating in a cycling themed team fund raising activity, where the goal is to raise $12,023 by riding a collective 2023 miles in September to fight children’s cancer. If you can spare a few $, would be great if you could throw some at the cause. Thanks This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids’ cancer! Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest…

Yeah, OK, Mike’s Bikes; Pon Group is technically a “family-owned company”

First off, just to be clear, I think it sucks. Really sucks. That Specialized canceled the pre-orders of everyone who bought one of their bikes from Mike’s Bikes. While they almost certainly were within the bounds of their contract with Mike’s Bikes, it’s not great for the 400+ people screwed over by this act, and perhaps more importantly, will cost Specialized goodwill to a much wider audience. FOR SHAME! But, what I…

Shimano Goes To 12, on the road

We all knew that Shimano was bringing 12 speed to the road, and it’s finally here… What comes as a surprise to me, is that they updated both the Ultegra (R8100) and Dura-Ace (R9200) groupsets at the same time. Wireless receiver is now in the rear derailleur. One one hand, this means you don’t need a separate D-Fly to integrate with the bike computer, but on the other, it means that Shimano…

Graeme Obree

As a relative newcomer to the sport of cycling, there’s a LOT I don’t know about what’s come before. Last night, as I was swapping the BB in a friend’s bike, and complaining about UCI regulations for TT bikes, he mentioned Graeme Obree’s story. I found the video that he shared (linked below) very interesting from a historical perspective, and oddly comforting as I discovered that the UCI was just as strange…

Garmin fēnix 6 Firmware 19.10

A massive jump in major version since the last “stable” release of the Garmin fēnix 6 firmware. Annoyingly, they haven’t released the binaries for the adventurous, and I haven’t been able to make Garmin Express deliver the goods, so I’m still running the 18.80 beta. The major version change sort of makes sense given how many new features were added, although, I’m a bit confused by the number of jumps. The change…

Ribble Announces Ultra SLR / SL Aero Road Bikes

There’s a lot to like about the Ribble Ultra SLR / SL, and one niggle. Looking at the frame, you can guess, in an educated way, that it’s going to be fast. The shapes are right, and the tire gaps are tiny. Big claims are made around the cockpit, and they’re probably right. It will be very interesting to see how those play out in independent testing. Normally, this is where I…

To ERG, or not To ERG, that is the question

TIL – there is a diversity of opinion around whether using ERG mode when doing a structured workout is a good thing. Maybe because I’m biased, I wasn’t able to find much actual argument against it (best I found was this), and a whole lot for, in a nuanced way, (another Slowtwitcher), albeit mostly from companies who have made a business selling structure for the smart trainer. Personally, I have a really…
