Mesoam Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 How are you liking it? Good confidence booster on the down hills isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfishing3 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 i usually don't get hot spots on my feet, but the bottom of my right foot is hurting after todays ride. i'm working on my climbing position. I'm really to large to be jumping out of the saddle. I have a seated position where i just grind. i've been moving back on the saddle and getting more of a straight leg push on steep parts. Its working well and i'm climbing better than ever. I think i'm putting a lot of watts into my feet this way though. i haven't changed anything on my bike,shoes, cleats, saddle, nothing. I did wear tube socks for todays ride though. little more climbing than normal today also. 36.4 miles 2808' of gain strava. Map my ride says 3111'. So I'll take that lol i've also ridden 4 times this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt b Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Rode today and it didn't bother me..Thinner socks, still pushed on climbs but feel great Had the same issue, until someone pointed out that wearing thicker socks in warmer weather was stupid.

iPd Cameron Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 (edited) Got back from vacation and took advantage of the nice weather yesterday to put 20 more miles on my new All City Mr. Pink: I'm really liking this bike. I cut 7:00 minutes off my average time for the 20 mile loop I ride frequently on this bike vs. my Cielo.

Mesoam Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 incredible difference a bit of rolling resistance makes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPd Cameron Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 incredible difference a bit of rolling resistance makes Totally! I have 28c tires on my Cielo and inflate them to 85-ish psi. On the new All City I am running 25c and inflating to 100psi. On top of that the new All City is a couple pounds lighter overall and I have it set up with more saddle to bar drop too. All those things together help for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icerockt Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 I'm pretty sure they are old american classic tubulars. The guy I got them from relaced the rear to an AC track hub and I still need to convert the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
