    Set TFF free.

    This forum is over-moderated in my opinion I would like to voice my displeasure about the nanny state this place is becoming. Swear words are simply that; words. How can anyone ever be offended by a collation of letters that over history has been defined to be something 'rude' ?? I don't...

    PowerCranks - The Discussion

    Now this is why I get confused - you're saying that single leg drills are helpful, yet independent cranks train muscles that don't need to be trained? my understanding is that independent cranks ARE the equivalent of doing single leg drills - so these two statements get me confused:confused...

    PowerCranks - The Discussion

    i'm calling them "independent cranks" now - don't want to go down the FDay path.... I've read quite a few of those thread on various forums - very passionate haha But could we please not go down that track? Discussing the claims of the inventor actually detracts from the thread topic (which...

    PowerCranks - The Discussion

    Back on topic, and forgetting about Frank's claims of increased power, i'll give you my reasoning for seeking information: I suffered a very bad injury, and as a result (even after 12 months) one of my legs is A LOT smaller than the other (in terms of muscle mass and strength)... The more I...

    PowerCranks - The Discussion

    Anyone who has used these and would vouch for them? Something I noticed from browsing the powercranks website was that the majority of the 'results' they display of athletes that train with them, are very much 'time triallists'.. that is, with the noticeable exception of Basso, the guys that...

    PowerCranks - The Discussion

    These have been mentioned once or twice in various threads, but I wanted a focused one for anyone searching the forums for advice on these things. Anyone have any thoughts? Good? Bad? Marketing hype? Good for anti-symmetric injuries? Make you faster in a time trial? Better...

    The best sprinter the TdF has seen can't win the green jersey

    This leads onto something I wanted to say actually... My impression WAS that the green was supposed to reward the most consistent rider, and on that note, I think the "points" should be the same for all stages (inc TTs), to reward the most consistent, all round rider I don't think it...

    So what happens if Contador wins by 39 seconds or less?

    What happens if Contador wins by 39 seconds or less? - Schleck can thank his lucky stars that the entire peloton waited for him and his brother into Spa - Schleck can thank his lucky stars that he had Cancellara to propel him over the cobbles, whilst the rest of the current top 10 got...

    Schleck's mentality: 101

    http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/schleck-confident-after-first-week Forgive me if I'm being a little bit too harsh, but is Schleck really stupid or what? Since when do you win a GT after one week... and there is so much hypocricy in all his words it's just laughable I'm fast losing any...

    Doping: costs and benefits

    "How can cycling be saved" thread Got this from one of my posts a couple of months back in the "How can cycling be saved" thread and updated a few words here and there to make it more relevant I'll add to that: Completely independent testing agency And I really can't emphasis enough...

    Tour de France: Prologue - Rotterdam - 8.9km

    Listen mate, I'm getting a bit sick of reading this "Boom Boom Pow" business... A few days before the Giro, when I thought Lars was racing, I posted on this forum that the winner would be "BOOM BOOM POW!!!" To the best of my knowledge, no one else had EVER poster that here, and now you've...

    could a "non-sprinter" take the green jersey this year?

    I voted Hagen to win green a while back, I guess not really a sprinter a la Cav, Farrar, Petacchi In years past O'Grady came runner up in the green jersey comp i think FOUR times, behind superstars like McEwen, so a 'non-sprinter' can get close A real outside chance is Nicholas Roche.. He...
