Polometre

Polometre from the latin polo metre.

nb. only works with my bike on polo gearing.

No Polo No Talk

Slackchain, from the latin slack chain.

So your gearing is 1 meter/crank revolution or is a 700xwhatever'c'your backtireis one meter in diameter?

oh mike its incredibly complicated... valve is the start point at the ground. one full rotation back to the ground is 2.1m.

i marked off a few increments so we can get to the nearest 50cm to 1m again from when the valve mark is in contact with the ground.

just measured across my flat pretty accurate.

should be useful today. this and a standard tape measure should help ;)

Busy at the mo Ray?

yep, measuring knobs.

raytard from the latin ray ... tard ....

Ray, use your frickin laser.

^^Is that drawing to scale? . . . it doesn't look right to me

Surely if it measures the wheel rotation it doesn't matter what gearing you're on

exactly. Ray Tard

That video is pretty hypnotic, Matt. I hate to think how many fails it took before he landed it.

yeah, i watched it about a dozen times in a row

Ha, me too.

Ray, how much for cranky cranks?

Firstly, what's the point?

Secondly if you want it to help measure, why not stick an arm on one of the stays and something that will make a noise each time it hits said arm on the wheel so you don't need to look at it, just cound the noises?

Don't listen to then Ray. You're special.

Professor Dr Raymond Cheung does it again. Good work sir. And glad that wheel worked out too.

Don't listen to then Ray. You're special.

Word being special

next time i get a text/pm/tap on the shoulder saying ray how long is this whatchamaddoddle thingy ... you can go fuck yourselves.

yeah jonny works a treat. £15 for phil bearing dun.
