Is it just in my head, though it feels like my legs.
I trained all winter on a road compact, and was very happy with it and my times and distances.
A few months back I went over to my race bike which runs a standard. Even if I fiddle with the ratios to match those I had on the compact, just turning over the 53 seems to take more effort. Though I only notice it on long rides.
So anyway I assume a ratio is the same which ever way you arrive at it no?
Anyone want an FSA Team Carbon Pro 53/39 octalink 🙂
Different length cranks?
EDIT: or are you older now than you were then?
oldgit, did you get your arse kicked by those 2 lads in yr new club, then ? 😉
No not today. More of a testing route today, plus one of the more regular riders was about as blunt about last weekend as you can get.
We did okay, just a few 'chimps tea party' moments.
EDIT: or are you older now than you were then?
Well I've sat down had a cuppa and done the math, and I reckon I'm just over three months older.
Different length cranks?
Do you know I've not checked. The compact is 170 which is right for me. I'll check Monday.
different geometry thus different fit on the race bike?
