    The Cane Creek EeSilk+ is designed for road and gravel, including mud. It does not come with a cover. However, the spindles ride on nylon bushings. A rebuild kit is available.

    I don't need to see any hoopla aimed at Jonas. What is getting tiring are the constant questions and nitpicking as they compare him to Superman Pogi, both directly, and passive-aggressively. They did not compare him to Ganna, which would have been appropriate. Jonas did not have the best TT of...

    It was. I'm surprised that I remembered it.

    2026 - Our Rides in Words, Photos, Maps and Videos

    Did the Tuesday night shop ride again this week. The pace was much faster. I got a paceline started on the way to the turnaround, then a storm blew in. Gusts to 25-30mph. After the turnaround, it was go time. I was wondering why the cars wouldn't pass us, until I looked down to see that we were...

    The cycling media are Pogi fans. He's been crowned the best ever already. MVDP as well. You get used to ignoring it. Jonas took almost 2 minutes out of the leader in around 40 minutes today. Where's the hoopla about that accomplishment? I'm not holding my breath.

    Electronic Drivetrain: Is it worth the hype?

    Maybe in your country they are, but most of the shenanigans you speak of are at unsanctioned races. I don't give two $h*ts about socks. There are plenty of other regulations that matter which need attention.

    Trek Central works with Strava and Komoot. If you want the file, extract it from either platform.

    Electronic Drivetrain: Is it worth the hype?

    The ride was mostly fun. The party afterwards was hella fun. Descending gravel covered, pothole filled dirt roads on a road race bike, not so fun. And to keep on topic, that bike had Dura-Ace 11 speed Di2 with an 11-30 cassette.

    Electronic Drivetrain: Is it worth the hype?

    No, cyclocross. CX. The UCI has strict rules about gear. I know, because I have to enforce them. USA Cycling is more lenient. Note that I said "amateur level".

    That was a disappointing finish for Jonas. +3:00 to Ganna, +1:00 to Arensman. Eulalio keeps the jersey, Jonas +0:27. Now the race gets into high gear.

    TNT has been showing the gearing every now and then, but I missed it for Jonas. They did mention that Ganna debated between the 68 and the 64, and he chose the 64. He is winning this stage by over 2 minutes so far. His power wattage was 455w. Remember that Jonas is racing Eulalio, Arensman, and...

    Jonas warming up. He chose a 68T chainring for today.

    Electronic Drivetrain: Is it worth the hype?

    I used to do the Jeremy Powers Gran Fundo 50+ mile gravel ride on my Felt FR1 race bike and GP4000S 700x25's. Gravel bikes were just gaining traction then.

    I'm watching Ganna crush this TT. He was my pick for the winner, but Jonas hasn't started yet.

    Electronic Drivetrain: Is it worth the hype?

    At the amateur level, it's not unusual for an MTB rider to win a cyclocross race. Good, fast riders are good, fast riders no matter what they are on. They definitely have the advantage at the start with the wide bars. I rode my Pinarello (Nytro E5 Allroad) with 45mm (actual) Gravel Kings on...

    I saw him at the Orpheum in Boston after a proper party beforehand. The place was rocking.

    The only app that I know works with the Electra Townie Go is Trek Central. What are you trying to do?

    Garage Bike Floor Stand

    Feedback Sports Pro E-Lift. REI has them on sale for $999.00 plus $30 shipping. When I'm not using it, I tuck it into a corner. I have provided an overhead electric outlet so that the power cord is suspended, which allows 360 degree access to the bike. For high torque work, I position the bike...

    Orbea Gain/Garmin edge 840 control

    I was not aware of that, thanks. The thing about ANT+ is that is a platform for development. Just because it's not common doesn't mean it hasn't been done.
