I too have Zefal Husky, but had problem with the air escaping from the nozzle when inflating the tire, i think it is due to the inflexible of the air hose and maintaining perfect contact with the nozzle or could it be a noob's problem?

..on pro racing..just to understands more on the tactical aspect of the tour.
Ow does a domestique rider helps his teammate to try to recover after gotten distanced in an uphill battle? Is it more to do pace setting him and limit the damages, as I dun see any advantages in drafting...no? Also...How does the work cuts out for a domestique rider in neutralizing an attack? |

QUOTE(vin_ann @ Jun 11 2013, 02:29 PM) very serious stuff. Not drafted in a peloton, mana ada p2k or UCI group ride. But did drafted on someone's wheels and could feel the effect of drafting, at least 20% less effort then if I have to do it on my own at about 32km/hr.have Mac Wai ever draft in peloton over long distance? If yes, you would know half of your answer on your question asked. This post has been edited by Mac Wai: Jun 11 2013, 05:58 PM |

QUOTE(butthead @ Jun 11 2013, 02:32 PM) in recent years... you can see that if a team is strong enough... like astana of 2009 and team sky of 2012 and this year... Thank you for the explanation with illustrations they send the team out as a whole to control the race from the front when their GC man is in the lead... they will ride so hard that it disintegrates everyone and make it so hard for even their GC rivals to remotely make an attack move... the same tactic Lance Armstrong and Team USPS used to great effects in the late 1990s and early 2000's I think you could start a school for cycling commentaries for our local sports channel covering cycling event...I remember Miao or is it not him that commented that the local sports commentator knows nuts about the leads out or domestique, keep citing the cyclists given up so close to the finish. Makes we want to yank their chain if I happened to be watching. This always comes to mind, eg. BMC do not have a strong enough team, couldn't Cadel just leached on to the back for example Froom and thus save as much energy even if the Sky train set a very fast pace to obliterate the competition. What are the disadvantages faced by Evans or advantage Froom has......and no dafag pls from Miao...k? |

I will buy a complete bike as I am not too choosy as lilred says "Beggars cannot be choosers" cheaper ma!
Preferably my Groupset will be a Sram Force this round but doubted it to be available complete as there are in neither ends of the spectrum. Must swap out the OEM wheels with the Aero wheels of Choice (For style sake) ....I own up for F@ks-non performance....i dun remotely qualify to talk it. |
