I commute to work by bicycle (and sometimes run to work) year-round here in Seattle and I carry my work clothes in a backpack (I use of a backpack rather than panniers as I want to use the same bag cycling and running so I don't have to transfer stuff bak and forth from panniers to backpack). I...

Anybody used a 1st position Campagnolo cassette cog in the 2nd position? I want to get a 12T cog and create a 12-23 custom cassette out of 13-26 and 13-28 9s cassettes that I have laying around. I can't see why it wouldn't work--just wouldn't need a spacer between 2nd and 3rd position...

Anybody know the recommended BB length for a 1998 Chorus 9s double crankset? Is is the same 102mm as the more current square taper doubles? Thanks.

I'm thinking about trying the Crank Brothers pedals. Does having a platform matter or are the basic Egg beaters sufficient?

Question for long time speedplay users. Does anyone know if the newer snap shim cleat baseplate offers more fore-aft adjustability than the older cleats or is it the same? I have a new pair of Specialized road shoes, and the problem is that I cannot get the slimline cleat to mount far enough...

Campagnolo afficionados--have any of you tried the Miche cassettes? I am beginning to see them available more in the US and a bit cheaper than Veloce. Any input on their quality/performance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Anyone here ever converted a triple crankset to a double by removing the inner chainring and using a shorter BB spindle? Just a thought that I have about making use of some parts I have laying around.

OK, there has been a lot of debate around here recently about crank arm length and numerous separate discussions on compact cranksets. I have a a question for the mathematically inclined among you: For a given crank arm length, does chainring size matter if the ratio of chainring to cassette...

Velonews has an article describing the single-lever shifting on the upcoming SRAM road group. http://www.velonews.com/tech/report/articles/9036.0.html

I am gradually upgrading a nice older steel frame but can't afford to buy the whole drivetrain all at once. I would like to initially upgrade everything but shifters to campy 9 or 10 and get the ergo levers when I save more money. Anyone have any experience with friction shifting 9 or 10 sp...

Will the Campy 9sp chainrings accomodate a 10 sp chain? I have a 8/9 sp triple crankset and want to run Campy bar-end shifters (that only come in 10sp). If not, what non-campy chains, if any, can be used with 10sp Campy rear-end and 9sp chainrings. Or is it necessary to replace with a 10sp...
