In Defense Of Disc Brakes

Deep down we all know that disc brakes are technically superior. Now, there are rough edges in the current implementation, certainly for road disc, but that doesn’t change the fundamentals. There are plenty of use cases where rim brakes are just as good, but disc allows you to plan for peak. For e.g. I live in a flat place, but also like to travel to the mountains with my bike. Disc is…

Someone should tell Ted King that Vitamin C is making him slower…

I’m generally quite happy to let riders who are faster than me make all sorts of sub-optimal choices. Elbows out? Great! Resting on the downhill while rolling hills? Even better; rest now, pay later. But, this is a little different. First, I’ll never ride with Ted King, and even if I did, I would be so far back that it would be functionally equivalent. He’s F1, I’m doing doughnuts in the parking…

Hello World!

Hello, this is Andrew with Missing Remote, er…, Mamilian. Change is hard, but I think it’s time to setup a separate space for bike stuff, and the home theater/networking/etc stuff. Since I don’t want to recreate a bunch of videos, I’m going to cross post them (I know, so lazy…). Hopefully Google doesn’t hate me because of it.…

Nothing Says “We Listen To Our Customers” Like Ignoring Them: Fitbit Edition

About five years ago, someone created a feature request on the Fitbit forums requesting that they allow the device to act like a BTLE heart rate (HR) monitor. Simple enough, Fitbit devices have BTLE (that’s how they sync with your phone), and they track heart rate (at least most of them). Adding this feature, which many other HR tracking watches can do, should have been pretty easy. Obviously not a massive priority,…

Canyon – Great bike, great price, but man the business is inept

I have a Canyon Aeroad, or maybe had… Perhaps this is an esoteric question better left unaddressed. After all, if you destroy your bike, is it still a bike? Or just a collection of bike parts, using a strange carbon fiber hanging/storage mechanism? Not that it really matters, because the point of this post is to highlight the experience I had with Canyon USA’s customer service, it got complicated… First off, have…

Continental GP5000 TL Puncture

Less than a month in, got a puncture. Sealant worked in the field, isn’t providing a long term fix. Annoying that I’ll probably have to write off such a new tire, for what isn’t that large of a hole, but it’s hard to argue with the massive convenience of tubeless even though it’s an all-the-eggs-in-one-basket solution.…

Vitamin C is the Devil for endurance athletes… and maybe everyone else too

I’ll never be the fastest, or the strongest, so where I can find advantage I’m generally more than happy to run with it. I thought Vitamin C was an advantage; after all, if you get sick less often, you can train more. And for the most part this strategy worked for as long as I pursued it, but it was recently brought to my attention that it had a major flaw (thanks…

Apparently the Wahoo ELEMNT runs Android

I ran across a couple posts from “joshua0” last night when my attempt to get Wahoo to provide useful assistance extracting the “Pedal Monitor” metrics from the FIT file it exports ended in “the data is probably there, but you’ll have to ask Pioneer how to parse it” (paraphrased from the six emails it took to get that out). And it surprised me on two counts. First that the ELEMNT is running…
