Very nice ride!Niz wrote:After 2 years on a Merida flat bar, my first road bike. A Roubaix Expert SL4.
PS - you can remove the cadence magnet cable-tied to the pedal crank and just use a rare-earth magnet on the back of the pedal bolt. The garmin sensor should pick it up well.

The computer mount seems to be very far back. Would imagine it's quite a shift in eye sight to look at it? I've just bought one of the new k-edge mounts for garmin comps that put it out in front the bars. A great purchase and much better place to keep on eye on all the stats.open roader wrote:Same old bike ....... new rollers.........

Yes, Vittoria Open Corsa SC Tubulars, very fast and yet plenty comfortable.

I prefer the computer tucked underneath my chin like this, too much data gazing otherwise, I prefer to gaze down at the front hub spinning............HAKS wrote:The computer mount seems to be very far back.

Almost hypnotic isn't it? .open roader wrote: I prefer to gaze down at the front hub spinning............
I'm assuming you still have the chunky carbon fibre wheels? I'm curious about the change.

Hypnotic, yes. When the road is open and long and flat I find watching the front hub spin up helps me get into a rhythm, esp. with breathing. I put a couple of reflective stickers on the hub body which catches the eye easily.ldrcycles wrote:Almost hypnotic isn't it? .open roader wrote: I prefer to gaze down at the front hub spinning............

I now actually own a trio of carbon wheels - still have the chunky Nimble Crosswind tri-spokes which are easily the most comfortable to ride on (shod with Vittoria CG Pave tubs) and the most stable wheels I've ever ridden - even with nasty crossing winds - probably my go to wheels when it's windy and I'm not riding bigger hill climbs. I also recently picked up an inexpensive pair of lightly used Nimble Fly low profile carbon tubulars which I've have just glued some fresh Vittoria Pave tubs to now awaiting a decent ride.......
