POLL QUESTION

Should a computer have a resting place on a CX bike? your vote can be placed in the comments.



my reasoning is that my road bike is up in the rafters, and the CX ride is my only hoopdy (by choice).
I mean, how else would I tally my velog??? I have never seen the HR during a CX race, so my piqued (Liz) interest has the best of me. Plus, look at it all nestled up under the flaming Hot S of the Slingshot fork...


Yes, JB, the bar tape is being replenished tonight with blood red when I replace all the cables. I'd like to get a red saddle also.

  1. Computers need to go on everything. Without numbers to log, the training doesn't count.

  8. Of course computers are fine on a cross bike. It's always good to know how far you went. All those who say no to the computer are just jealous cause they won't pony up a few bucks to put on one their bikes.
    I used my Garmin last year at each race (i always took it off before the race for fear that i would hit it with my knee and lose it during a crash)
    I think the UCI should allow disk brakes too!!!(oops, did i go to far)

    disc brakes...please stopping just makes you go slower.

  12. no computers. If you need to know how far/fast you went ask whoever just finished riding with you. If you rode by yourself, go to mymyride.com and map your loop and the see how far/fast you went. but no computers.

    Simple.
