DOLAN TC1, built and ready! (Mavic Gel280, Campagnolo Zonda, Corima Aero+ front wheels) I'm gonna attempt to lower my Medium Gear 72" club record on this next Thursday on H10/8, so pleased with how the bikes turned out.

What's the med gear record sitting at now?

Nice bike!

Never understod what ”medium gear” means, since english isn’t my naitive language. Seen it alot latley, someone enlighten me ? :)

Hi, medium gear harks back decades, when most time trials were conducted on fixed a medium gear of 72 inches was seen as a bench mark of "twiddling" I'm hoping to beat my club medium gear record, which currently stands at 23:39 set on H10/8 a couple of weeks ago, on a different bike, I'm hoping/wondering if this new bike will be any faster, I just hope I'm on form to beat the record (it won't be for the want of trying!!!)

Thank you ! And good luck for the record :)

Thanks

Rode the Alton CC ten tonight on H10/8 and tied with my existing record of 23:39!!! Averaged 27.075mph to the turn, with a howling tailwind, but, coming back was so hard, I know on a better night I could go at least 10/20 seconds quicker! The bike was awesome, just weather conditions were against me, I'm gonna attempt to lower the record again soon. (11th July hopefully the next attempt date)
