Mobile Website I find the mobile version almost unusable on an Iphone 5/Safari: -The purple dropdown menu makes it impossible to view images in landscape -Images do not display properly in portrait -The "Related Articles" links are of absolutely no use, and by placing them at the top of...

Just finished watching stage 8, and it seemed like AC was favoring his left leg on the last climb. Each attack looked like a mix of lunge-smooth from left to right pedal stroke. Am I seeing things? Have I missed this in past years? Or is he nursing an injury...

Thanks. I'm in the States, so it looks like cyclingtv is my only option. I'll wait and see what their schedule looks like before I pull the trigger.

I'm thinking about cancelling my DirecTV subscription, but want to see if anyone has ideas on what my options would be for race coverage. Ideally, I want to connect a PC to my TV and get a full screen HD feed (which rules out some of the euro coverage I've tried in the past due to spotty...

You don't mention what kind of cassette (Shimano/sram; new/used) - regardless, I'm wondering if you need the 1mm spacer that comes w/Shimano 10 speed cassettes (for use on non-10 speed Shimano hubs) w/your Mavics

Yes, but 1) articles don't tell you who holds those classes of stock; and 2) in situations like this, the *real* money has flown the coop long before divvies get declared.

I dunno...Iljo Keisse seems to be doing relatively well, despite (or should I say, because of) his attorney's blatant abuse of the legal process.

Back when I worked in a shop (many moons ago), the bikes were low-margin to, in some cases, loss leaders. It was the shop time, small parts, and accessories that made all of the $$. I've since operated under the assumption that this is still the case, thus I make a point of purchasing this...

Watch this closely. 6500 series Ultegra shifters had an internal plastic cog with a nasty habit of shearing teeth over time, causing this precise problem. The failure mode is progressive, with occasional failed shifts at the onset eventually becoming a total inability to shift into a lower...

The following reflects my experience with Shimano shifters/derailleurs and 'standard' cable routing. I've never tried a travel agent, 'alternate' Shimano cable routing, or shimagnolo combinations. In situations where shifters have more 'clicks' than cassettes have gears, it is assumed that...

I'd wager LA's stake is < 5%. If Lehman paid $200MM for 40%, and LA made a "meaningful passive investment...said to be in the millions of dollars", we're probably talking low single digits. But really, at the end of the day, equipment sponsorships are about what the manufacturer brings to...
