Thanks for the reply but I've already found plenty in the sub 60t range. I'm looking for 65 or so teeth which is looking like I'll have to upgrade from 110 to 130/144cranks.

I just ordered my zizzo bike and am looking for a larger chainring when it arrives. I'm used to a full sized road bike with 60x11 gearing and would like a similar gearing on the zizzo. I've been...

After several test rides I can say I don't find recumbent bikes practical... They seem comfortable for the flats where you don't have cars to deal with. When I have cars I want to be able to pivot...

As someone who leaves a bike in my car I'd absolutely hate paying for a bike rack I'd never use. I think roof racks would be too tall for many people/vehicles. Also it's too obvious of a target for...

The most important question

Can it wheelie? I've been debating a recumbent bike, but I've never seen anyone wheelie on them. I've been thinking I might need to add a motor for the extra torque rear hub and battery in the back...

The cheap way of seeing how much extra weight effects your time, would be getting a bike bag, and adding weights in it. Probably adds aero drag too. Otherwise I'd look into folding bikes and...

My employers have all kept paper towels and soap stocked in the restrooms, so no need to carry wet wipes. I'd keep emergency clothes etc at work and not on my bike if possible. Then just make sure...

Nice thing is you can take folding bikes with you, so they're much less likely to be stolen. You could always get mugged and/or thief sees the bike and breaks in. I think their are rear covers for...
