Rode rollers without a fan, pure misery. Watched some dh and was weaving left and right as they went through the turns.
Also try raising the bars.
I had to stop watching riding videos on the rollers. My Insideride have the roller bumpers, but they only do so much to save you.
They should add in cars that cut you off to make right turns, so that itās as realistic as possible.

A vr rampage run would be cool.
I took my crosscheck on a big dumb ride (Giro PDX) with some hammerheads. I burned all my matches in the first 1.5 hrs and had to call Wife Flight at the halfway point. I severely underestimated my fitness.

Got all my various adapters working!
I made a bad choice upgrading this thing and not just getting a new bike. What an absolute pain in the ass. But hey, dynamo setup now! And I guess I could get a front rack on there!
Might have to spray.bike it if I like the setup enough.

Gearing under 1:1 eh? What kind of riding are you doing on it?
Is it a CX frame? It looks like the kind of build I used to rando on.
Do you have cable to hydraulic converters or something going on there?
No, just flat mount to post mount on the fork.
And then thereās a specialized part-headset lower adapter for non-specialized forks. Fork crown had this situation, and the frame had a larger than normal recess for the lower bearing:
And the bb30 has had adapters for 24mm cranks for years.
Yeah itās a cross frame from 2013 or 2014. There is a lot of dirt road riding and a lot of hills. The dirt roads are not really the same as like Midwest gravel. I initially set the bike up in response to D2R2, but I had kids and got alcoholic and fat and stopped going. Iāve lost some weight andā¦ hills are easier? Hopefully this dyno hub and light setup will get me out riding after itās dark at 4:30. Need to install the rear light today.

Iām not too happy about it myself. What to do? Some kind of v-brake noodle kludge?
Itās Yokozuna housing if that helps?
Zip ties instead of internal routing or flat mount caliper
