I'm wondering if you noticed any difference in standing on the Stages SB20 vs others (really want to know about Wahoo). I have trouble standing for long and it puts a lot of pressure on my knees compared to standing outside which helps me knees.
Great video. Would have been good to have some information about where to stay. The Cycling in Flanders website has a list of hotels & bicycle rental locations in the area. The Flandrien Hotel is located between Oudenaarde and Geraardsbergen and is an excellent choice for those taking on the Flandrien Challenge.
6:42 : how do you explain the 1m15s difference beetween the second runs? when on runs 1 and 3, there is just a few sec? is it 24:50 instead of 25:50....seems strange and hard to understand !
my legs dont rub at the frame but i find the handlebar top grip position not very comfortable. its just very hard plastic there. maybe my seat position is not the best.... i feel quite a lot of pressure in my hands when holding there. should i move the handlebar more towards me?
This is my first road ru-vid.comUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and I have taken it out a handful of times and so far it is exceeding all of my expectations. I didn’t want to break the bank on a first bike and the herd is a great option for getting a fast bike with reliable components. I plan on riding this bike for many years to come. Thank you Sava!
We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. ru-vid.comUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.
This was an SUPERB professional review Ben. Very nicely done. I'm considering buying this bike and the information you've presented was very helpful. Thanks very much...and keep up the great work!
This guy claims there is an integrated tire lever on the bike. Or is he talking about the through-axle lever??? A tire lever is a tool used to unmount tires from rims.
Is the word "millimeter" so difficult to say? Why not use it and stop being inaccurate. A "mil" is a separate unit of length, not an abbreviation for millimeter.
The issue I've encountered with the CG-R seatpost is the elastomer dries out, creaks, and starts falling off. I actually thought it was my PF bottom bracket! Swapped that out for the Wheels Mfg angular contact threaded replacement, which I highly recommend, but someday Specialized might wake up and go T47.
This reviewer, 2 years ago: the wobble on the kickr bike is a little annoying Wahoo Kickr hoolligans, now: "what you really ought to do is add a $1200 rocker board for maximum wobble"
Great comparative review. Once the prices are taken into consideration - the Stages is almost HALF the price of the Wahoo (I can live without tilt), my decision has been made
Good reviews thank you I watched this 2 xs and a bunch of others. I have not bought anything as yet but am looking everything over. I am leaning toward the Stages because the reviews indicate they last and that is what is important. Wahoos are the fun ones but fall apart it appears. Good Video
