RE: turbo wheel use:
If I had training Wheels I'd just run them. But when I put the road bike together I'll just have a carbon tubular rear, With FMB tub, and Ti cassette. So I'll keep that for the glorious outdoors.
I had a conti clincher on the fixed. Used it on the turbo, had two flats, got pissed off, and fitted the turbo tyre. Bet the turbo tyre better outdoors too. fecking conti gp's.
I currently have the fixed gear on the turbo. Its shit for intervals. But I'm getting on With what I'm going to Call hardish base miles. Which is 75% FTP. Doesnt feel hard, doesnt feel easy. I'm at 78 rpm cadence. Which is probably my climbing cadence. Tend to do an hour. As thats all I have time for.
Going to move to 2x20 before my Gran Canaria week in feb.
