How do you like those chainrings?

Posted over 9 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

they've always been solid shifting from little to big. But I've had my chain suck going from big to little many times. they're pretty worn out at this point to. really hoping to get some new rings / chain / wheel set soon. my bike is terribly under-maintained right now

riceboy says:

Hmm okay. I am buying a quarq for max Fred and was curious what rings to go with them. They come with Praxis which are solid in shift quality but a little on the heavier side.

yeah, id stick with the praxis. They're the enve of my eye currently.

That weight makes it seem the caad 10 frame is lighter than most aluminum frames. Really considering picking up a used frameset to build up. Would you recommend it?

Posted over 10 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

oh yeah, its definitely lighter than most. pretty sure its still the lightest production alloy road frame. Maybe only matched by the canyon and the high end allez. it also rides better than many carbon bikes. all that with a tried and true race geo makes it an obvious choice for value.

How do you like the Hollowgram cranks?

Posted over 10 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

they're nice, took a noticeable amount of weight off my bike. But they aint makin me any faster!

Trujillogoes200mph

Trujillogoes200mph says:

Would you recommend them over SLK LIGHT cranks?

Posted over 10 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

yeah, i truly believe cannon dale cranks are the best you can buy. But are they necessary? no. As a racer, it doesn't matter which cranks you use, as long as they work. As a person who loves nice bikes, they're fucking awesome.

arelyt says:

how is training with power so far? i've been considering trading my wheelset for some powertaps but not sure if it's worth it.

Posted over 11 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

If you really want to get the most out of your training, it is the best investment. Just be prepared to work, you gotta keep up with power testing and intervals to really get the most out of it; im still not using it to its full potential, but it is helping me.

Posted over 11 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

used powertaps can be pretty affordable. if you just buy a rear wheel it wont take too big of a bite out of your wallet, you just wont match. but getting an ant+ compatible is a must these days.

How do you like your new wheels compared to Eastons?

Posted over 11 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

Theyre really light (1500ish grams)! however, they are a bit less stiff/responsive. Also, they didnt stay true for very long, even after stressing the spokes. But they seem to be doing well now, and im not very heavy so i don't mind the extra flex as it doesnt effect me too much. Would consider velocity A23 if i were to do it over, but i got these at a great price so im not complaining.

That's one nice ride ya got there. The tubulars are nice but modern clinchers are almost there weight wise with out the problems.Vittoria makes some that are within a couple grams.Try going to a 19 width if you can find them. Less tire=less weight.Enjoy.

im definitely gonna consider that option whenever the time comes that i can actually afford something. thanks!

niiice, some tires like gp4000s for races?

Posted almost 12 years ago

Zeb_pepperoni

Zeb_pepperoni says:

gonna see if i can get some carbon tubulars for next season only did one race on it this past year. Its a sensitive balance here in hawaii. there is only one real road race, and the roads are covered in broken beer bottles, so its either risk a flat by running tires that arent so puncture resistant. or you can race on slow tires. i plan on racing on the mainland in the summer, well see what my budget will allow me to do.
