• slow down.

  • up their pay and give them more holiday

  • Don't use French pedals

  • How short should the cranks be if by bb hight is 245 mm

  • Would 165mm be ok

  • What's the largest Aquatic mammal?

  • Blue whale

  • Seriously though.
    If you're running 165's then you shouldn't strike.
    You have to corner less aggressively, lean your upper body into a curve rather than leaning your bike. As you turn, load the pedal on the outside of the curve with more weight than the other pedal - this keeps the bike in a more upright position and stops it tilting.

    Good answer, fpgm.

    Have some rep.

  • You're still too young.

    No rep for you.

    I tried.

  • slow down.

    no, go faster, but work on taking the widest corner possible for the road you are on.

  • What's the largest Aquatic mammal?

    wtf?

  • no, go faster.

    You would say that, you healthy bastard.

  • lower the road.

  • wtf?

    This proves that noobs know more than us old timers.

    We're doomed.

  • lower your standards.

  • who are you calling old? youve been around for ever ever ever ever, stoking the fires of hell with your diabolic nonsense.

  • Sorry to change the subject of this post, can you put a deeper rim on the front than the back

  • the blue whale is a fish

  • Yes

  • Sorry to change the subject of this post, can you put a deeper rim on the front than the back

    Absolutely. In fact this an ideal aerodynamic setup for high-speed reverse cycling.

    How come this one has a deeper rim on the front

  • In the absence of a rear disk, you get the most aero benefit from having your deepest rim at the front.

    Shamals still outperform a lot of modern deep rims in testing (velodrome), BTW.

  • the blue whale is a fish

    "'Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee. Sink all coffins and hearses to one common pool! and since neither can be mine, let me then tow to pieces, while still chasing thee, though tied to thee, thou damned whale! Thus, I give up the spear!'"

  • Sorry to change the subject of this post, but is the blue whale a mammal with a deeper rim on the back

    Fish. Fish?
