If you are any modern parents in this kiasu society you will realise.
All parents will send children to at least one physical activities such as taekwondo or any sports but will be very upset if their children choose to become an athlete All parents will send children to at least one performing arts such as ballet or instrument class but will be very upset if their children choose to become a musician or dancer This list goes on and on p/s is it an offence for not wearing helmet while cyling?

Although I have not been with my bike for long, my main reason chosing my current bike
1) Price - Wanted to get tiagra but 1k upgrade from it still within my budget so just go for it 2) Shop location - 5 mins ride from my house 3) Groupset - Shimano 105 is recommended although i'm not sure why (wanted to get SRAM initially but not avail for shop around my area) 4) brand - actually i still dunno what is Focus 5) colour - white is sexy 6) Lazy - tired of going too many shop and reading bike stuff everyday without making a purchase |

Did my first open road cyling 38.59km @ 25.7kmh avg speed. I see those good cyclist usually do very high cadence no matter up or down hill and just maintain them all the wayy..
Did that after my 1km open water swim, but problem after the bike session i cant run my legs almost cramp and i am forced to run/walk for the next 7km.. After 25k my hand turn numb, and my back start to ache a bit.. have to slow down and attack again later on... This post has been edited by Sky.Live: Jan 28 2012, 08:00 PM |

I tried that in my ride as well, as i use lower ratio gear, there's a sound behind the gear and sometimes there's a space/gap when i step where I felt nothing is engaged thus creating a sudden jerk in pedalling.. What I do is that I normally try to shift 1 or 2 gear above.
When you are shifting gear downwards for a climb, usually u do it gradually? from 10->9->8 or a sudden jump? I found sudden jump cause a sudden jerk in pedalling and might lost balance too.. also when to shift the frontgear vs the rear gear.. sorry many question after today's ride |

Is there any maintenance needed for the bike? I usually just clean off the debris by spraying water on my bike...
If you are not using clip-on shoe, shud you step the pedal on your heels or your fore foot? Saw few sexy full carbon yesterday This post has been edited by Sky.Live: Jan 29 2012, 05:50 PM |

QUOTE(malleus @ Jan 30 2012, 09:08 PM) personally I find cadence more useful than the speed indicator. the speed is just something kinda nice to have, but the cadence meter helps me pace myself on the rides There's many other weird meter which I don't even know what is that..It's comes with a Heart Rate Meter.. Supported ANT+ speed/cadence sensor Power Meter which I don't know what is that.. Any idea how much a cadence sensor would cost? |

QUOTE(malleus @ Jan 30 2012, 09:28 PM) a buddy who uses a road bike swears by the combination of the heart rate meter and the cadence sensor. not too sure about the specifics of it, but something to do with the heart rate determining the cadence or something like that. http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2010/08/timex-i...trainer-in.htmlno idea about the price of the cadence sensor though.. I use a cat eye bike computer with cadence and speed, but don't think that's applicable to what you're looking for. same for that roadie buddy too, his heart rate meter comes with his bike computer Scroll down there's actually a Garmin Candence meter... |
