Subject: RE: Bike-fit /tune-up worth $100? Yep!!! Bripod - 2008-08-19 12:33 AM Wow what a huge difference! How long between testing protocols? That's fantastic! It's been two weeks since the last time I did the same loop. Last time I did it it I averaged 12.82 mph and yesterday I averaged 14.73 mph. Things that changed: Bike fit; tune-up (which also included filling my notoriously underfilled tires), and I've been doing a lot of trainer sessions due to iffy weather here in NJ. I think the trainer sessions helped me get my mind right for keeping my cadence up, but the bike was noticably smoother and just felt "fast." When I spun in low gears it felt like I was actually going somewhere, rather than just thinking "please let me get up this hill." |
