  5. So who will be there this weekend?
  6. Yes, we digress, BUT... Read that they posted those figures based on that's how much you will drink when buying a can or bottle as that's the size it comes in. Scientifically it makes more sense to compare 100ml to 100ml, but I get what they're saying. Back to #BOSSPORT
  7. Can you guys help with a report back on real life, long-term battery life?
  8. From my side I will choose AAA's over 1. the risk of damaging the Look or Garmins 2. Hassle of fitting the others 3. Ease of transfer between bikes I'd rather replace batteries than have to spend more money to sort a busted pedal or pod.
  9. I'm okay with discussion - hence my reply and hearing you guys out. And I quote "But for the money it is worth looking at all available options and weigh up the pros and cons of each." and "I get that." If someone doesn't like it or choose something else for whatever reason that is okay too. If someone disagrees with me 100%, that too will be okay. No need to get hung up. I take it when someone posts a comment in reply to me it is okay to reply with my opinion. That's all it is.
  10. I get that. Using 4 rechargeables will be easy enough. The size of the pedal is a non-issue to me. Unless you are worried about the extra rotational weight. Once clipped in there is no way of knowing or feeling the extra bulk. The extra height can be accounted for easily enough. But for the money it is worth looking at all available options and weigh up the pros and cons of each.
  11. Yes, we can get very technical about this only to realize that no two batteries are the same and that different brands and different models yield varying results. OR the user can ride and gauge it himself and work from there. Again, to carry a spare AAA battery or two with you towards the end of the current one's life will not do any harm.
  12. 60 hours. Says so in the review. "The pedals are fully plug-and-play with the AAA batteries giving a claimed battery life of 60 hours"
  13. For those interested here's a LED Indicator chart Something else I noticed while taking the photos: of all the road pedals I had on hand the P1's were the only ones that could stand on the axle. The others are all rear heavy and kept falling over and n doing so ruined my chances of a side profile pic of each. May not have a massive effect, or at all, but the P1's are balanced front to back. Not 50/50, though. Probably closer to 40/60. Use it, don't use it.
  14. BicyclePower's reply below is spot on - depending on use obviously. Agreed True. Bonus is most, if not all, riders will have a multi-tool with them and to carry a spare AAA won't cost you a podium. I'd probably have 2 sets of rechargeable batteries and cycle them. (See what I did there?)
  15. Offering a unique solution, the P1 pedals by PowerTap are self-contained units, having all the electronics and battery contained in a 196g pedal. As with other offerings, Look Keo cleats can be used, but they ship with with proprietary 6 degree float PowerTap cleats and hardware. They also offer a 0 degree float cleat option as an extra accessory. Click here to view the article
  16. Numbers are limited, but I believe they are selling them faster than they can get them in.
  17. Reminds me of this
  18. Haha! But I think it would've been funnier he klapped the guy right there!
  19. Instagram take over by Ryan Franklin from Red Bull Rampage happening the next couple of days https://instagram.com/p/8w8oS-kf1W
  20. Not like America had it much better
  21. Very cool. Great to see he''s getting support as well.
  22. Even easier than that - we'll get them to comment here!

    Was quite interesting to hear him say in an interview that he is good and fast when he's out front and can into his zone. Control the race from there. But that he knows he's not the best when his rhythm gets disrupted and he has to fight it out in the pack.

    http://www.motorsport.com/motogp/news/rossi-admits-he-was-lucky-to-pick-up-lorenzos-tow/ Lorenzo, who secured a fourth pole of the year, meanwhile said he would have to think more carefully about strategy in qualifying in future. “It’s a bit of a pity, even though I was on pole position because I was always fastest with a little gap,” said Lorenzo. “But then [Yamaha] improved the setting of the bike which will have helped [Rossi] to improve the laptime, and then on the second tyre following me helped him to be a little bit faster. “We made a little mistake with the strategy and we have to learn from it, learn to be more clever in future.”
