- Gear Indicators for 10 Speed?

- The new GIZMO from Klein. Thoughts?
- First of all, let me make clear the fact that when it comes to the mechanics of a bike, I'm terrible. Oh sure, I've learned not to call it a seat, it's a saddle. And I've learned not to call then rims, they're wheels. But I do not know all the terms...

- Arenberg
- In my search for bikes, I came across an NOS 2003 Litespeed Arenberg in my size for ~$1,800 with Ultegra. Just took a test ride for fit and like the geometry, but questioning with my size (~230 lbs, 6'4) whether it's stiff enough. Since I like the ge...

- Bike upgrade: Trade, sell or keep the old bike?
- I'm thinking of upgrading to a tri-bike since I only race tris and its difficult to get a roadbike to do tri-geometry. I won't need my road-bike then, since I've already got a nice steel trainer/summer commuter and my wife doesn't really want me to h...
