  1. Also, which are key aspects to frame geometry that I should look out for??
  2. Hi guys I'm planning on getting a 29er, and i'm specifically concerned about the geometry of the frame. Which bike make + model has the 'best' geometry, being fast, best handling (comfort is not the biggest concern). I'm looking at a 29er stumpjumper Specialized. What are thoughts on other bikes like Scott and merida.
  3. okay cool thanks, but will i still be able to see my power display? and use the data on WKO+?
  4. yes I have..and it's ID is registered under Spd sensor, not Cad sensor. Does your speed sensor work (keep the CPU going and have time, distance etc.) when only the Speed sensor is connected, without the Powertap hub?
  5. Hi Guys How do you let your speed sensor work on your bike if you haven't got the powertap hub attatched to your bike e.g. for a race. I've used the Learn 1 function and have the speed sensor's ID but when I simply spin the wheel and let the CPU 'find' the sensor it doesn't pick it up Thanks
  6. Why? Are they that much more expensive? What's the difference in quality and detail between Zipp and Tyerone's?
  7. Okay cool.. And buying official zipp decals?
  8. Hi guys I'm looking for a place to buy zipp decals (except some american online shop). I'm specifically looking for a 808 set of decals Don't know if this is the right forum to ask this type of question, sorry if it's not. Thanks in advance
  9. Okay cool thanks Edman! You guys have really helped me a lot!
  10. Hi Guys! Thanks a lot for all the responses.. especially GrootBaas. I'm definitely going to use the method you showed me. One last question: Anyone who is familiar with Power Training should know about the L1, L2, L3 up to L6 zones. What would these zones be percentagewise of working HR. e.g. L4 = 80% to 85% Thanks!
  11. Hi Guys I am currently training on power and have a friend that would like to follow a similar program to mine, but doesn't have a power meter, only a HR monitor. To calculate my zones when power training I do a 20min max. effort and use the avg. power to calculate my zones. e.g. if my avg. after 20min is 301watts my L4 zone would be 275watts to 310watts. 301watts is more or less my lactate threshold wattage. My L3 zone, below my L4 zone, would be 235watts to 274watts etc. How can one calculate these zones with a HR monitor? Thanks in advance
  12. HI guys I have a CycleOps SL+ power metre system with a wireless CPU. I downloaded Poweragent from cycleops' website and plugged my CPU onto the USB platform and the USB in the computer. I then opened the program (Poweragent) and clicked on import files and all the icons to do with downloading workouts and it gives me a message that it couldn't find a CPU or source? When I plug the USB mount thing in the computer and wait for the computer to respond, it opens a wizard that wants me to search for a driver or download one from the internet..and never finds anything What is wrong..what am I doing wrong???? Thanks in advance
  13. Hi guys Which is the best software to use for training analysis for a Cycle Ops power metre? I've heard of WKO+.. Can one download this from the interweb for free or cheap somewhere? regards Christoph
  14. Is this a book from Joe Friel?? I have the normal Cyclist training bible and have heard of his book called 'Training with power..' or something? Can someone please point this book out to me because I can't seem to find the right one on the web..not too sure which one it is and the Title??
  15. Right thanks a lot Mr Gee!!! and everyone else for that matter..really helpful!! :clap:
