Cool... I don’t know.
It's similar to a Dremel tool. No threads, or slots, the squeeze is in the tube.
I would hate that. 10 mph is a pain.
Around a 1000 feet in 20 miles. For my group mountain bike rides 1000 feet in 10 or 12 miles. I like to keep my solo rides 1000 feet or so for 40 miles. Some of the rivers here drain high vegetated sand dunes left from glaciers. If you scope out the road network that circles these rivers you can get an almost 80 mile trip with less than 3000 feet. About two thirds of this ride is gravel . It took me almost ten hours to ride this this past May. Lots of black flies, snow banks and 80 F. I spent the next day sleeping.
Wah!
That’s impressive, it’s not even a shifty. I rode 81 miles July 24 on my aluminum and carbon road bike with similar elevation. It wasn’t easy. Didn’t count it for this cause it was a 2015 bike.
It really wasn’t near as bad as it looks. I sat mostly on the front of the saddle. It actually surprised me, I thought it would be a lot worse. Look at the photo, the front half of the seat is reminiscent of a road saddle.
Ha! Quite a ride.... I’d definitely prefer the climb on the way out vs. the way back.
That sounds like madness! Good grief!
Ha-Ha! That climb back would wear on you, but at least the last few miles is a downhill.....
There have been times I let it coast going back till the wheels stopped spinning from exhaustion. I've also fallen asleep a couple of times.
