The Scoblebrick™

Don't mean 3.4? Or you measuring to tops?

2 on tops, 4 on drops.

How do you measure these things? How many scoblebricks do I have?

Quite a lot for a TT bike.

Prepped my bike for the Kawasaki Bank Keirin Track tomorrow.

Pulling in over 5 scoblebricks now.

I still dont get it.

you are 3 machine
your choice of wall disappoints however

I will get it better next time. That is the first wall I see when I open my front door.

I have to deal with this, it's a nightmare:

Sadly I am fibbing.

Let me fib with you.

ideally you'd want to be looking from it rather than look at it

3-and-a-bit to the drops for my new Canelli.

What the ruling on pursuit bars? That a good lichen strewn country wall. Just beyond was a duck pond, with ducks and everything

About 4 on the Pinarello

I think I finally found out how the coblestack is determined! Top of saddle to bottom of bars?

One could argue since the forum title has a Fixed Gear in it, and FG is associated with track cycling and in this sport, most of the disciplines you are disqualified for not keeping your hands in the drops, the rule most be saddle to bottom of bars.

But in practicallity the nature of the fixie skidder archetype of the forum is riding on top of the drops, the reasoning studders.

What about aero bars?

Bikes with hoods and drops should be henceforth listed with a twofold scoblebrick rating; the above would thus be a 2/4 brickdrop bike

Aerobars of course should be measured to the armpads, as the base bars are a secondary position only

In that case the top of the aero extensions at the points where the hands grasp them might be a better standard. From the side it sometimes is hard to say how high the arms actually rest.

Ah, but then you have issues with ski vs s vs straight extensions , when drop is determined by the pad height only

^^You're right, I get it now.

^ Nice ride. Bit strange bar positioning or is it the photo?

the reasoning studders.

And this reasoning means what exactly? :)
