    Bosch shift detection - what does it do?

    From all I can find on the internet, there may be some benefit with manual shifting, but I think the biggest win is with automatic systems like the Di2 and Nuvinci. I don't feel and difference when I pedal. jeff

    I just checked the manual... “wheel circum.”: You can change this value pre-set by the manufacturer by ± 5 %. This value is displayed only when the on-board computer is in the holder. So it should be able to go to 29.4... That's something I guess. jeff

    Solution for bike-to-bike communication?

    My wife and I love our Cardo headsets. We purchased them four years ago and use them whenever we are out on our Segways or e-bikes. They take a little while to pair up at the beginning of every ride. They also go into standby mode after a period of 30 seconds of quite. When I ride alone, i can...
