2) seat tube range c-c ~49 cm (i.e., bike size)
3) standover clearance ~29 in
I can not find any cyclocross/touring bike met the 3 in bikedirect. i guess
have to move to road bikes, which have more choices of frames. also, i found
the park trail (buckeye) is called paved, one review:Path is mostly hard

a Mtn bike is not even needed. so |

Bike Fitting Report
上周六去了一家本地的车店做tri bike的fit. 现在的fit是去年在PB做的,他们和tri

1912年成立的,虽然不是tri store,但是tri bike以及装备占了货架上很大份额。他

即使不带移动电源,我的手机撑6个小时应该问题不大
GPS轨迹是个很耗电的功能。如果一直实时开着的话,bike computer的续航恐怕不会比
手机更好?我的微软Band2手环,如果开了GPS实时记录,2小时就没电了;如果GPS 10秒
一记录,理论上倒是可以撑一白天。bike computer不外挂电源的话,我想续航不会比手
环高一个数量级。
所以我个人觉得,手机App相对于bike computer还是有一点优势的。
手机App的优势:GPS常开的时候续航更给力,大多免费
bike computer的优势:防水,对车轮转速的计量比GPS更准确
腕带和手表的优势:防水,计量心率的时候不需要带心率带
综上:
如果希望准确实时记录GPS轨迹,手机加移动电源的方案是不错的
计量心率的话,手环准确度不如心率带但是更舒服
只需要超长续航和速度距离计量,当然bike computer是最好的 |

I once bought a ti mtb, and I thought it would be my last mtb. No, I bought
two more after that ...
Here's the rule:
Rule #12
The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
While the minimum number of bikes one should own is three, the correct
number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned. This
equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned
that would result in separation from your partner. |

w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 41 Just want to have an idea how much advantage one gets with a more
expensive bike. Let's say someone can bike 100 miles in 5 or 6 hours on
a $300 road bike that weighs 22 lb (say flat, no wind). What would be
the difference if he
rides 100 miles on a $1000 bike instead? How much time could he shave
off, with the same effort (if possible to estimate at all)? |
|
i**********g 发帖数: 159 | 42 My opinion. It probably will be a big difference if you compare $1000 to a $
300 bike. Not only the weight. The accuracy and efficiency of power train.
How well the bike fits you. Assume you have enough power, if the the handle
bar and the saddle are not that comfortable, it will be very painful or
impossible to ride 100 miles. Not saying nobody have done a century ride on
a walmart bike, but it just could've been much easier and more comfortable
if you have a nicer bike.
The weight affects more |
|
w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 43 Thanks, that's an extremely helpful answer! My $300 bike from bikesdirect (
which is claimed to be of $700
value) feels pretty good.:) It's a little heavier than my former $100 second
hand road bike, but it feels super
smooth and fast -- probably because I never had a real good bike. I will
take a ride with my GPS after getting
my bike out of the bikeshop Tuesday (it needs a full body tune-up).

cruise |
|
w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 44 As a beginner, let me try to answer this one. The ideal cadence for long
distance biking is 90-110 rpm. With a single gear bike, there is no way you
could maintain that cadence when you climb a hill. If you force your way
through 100 miles, you can hurt your knees seriously. There is a world's
difference between the crappy mountain bikes you bought in china and a real
road bike. Changing gears is no pain at all, and absolutely necessary for
good performance. |
|
w****1 发帖数: 4931 | 45 after a 6.8 mile run this morning, I went to the bike shop and picked up my
bike. then I went on the bike trail for a 24 mile ride. soon I realized that
the "bike trail" is mostly for the recreation of families and runners, not
real cyclists. I was able to cruise comfortably at 18mph, was able to
sustain 20mph and went up to 23mph (obviously couldn't last for too long).
But I had to make stops at crosswalks frequently, stopping my garmin 305. In
the end I averaged 17.76mph.

should I bring the bike by a car, or
by the train? I suppose a bike rack would be necessary if I go by car? |
