RESULTS ARE IN
I thought we should give jimbolee an opportunity to demonstrate his gearing theory and put it to the test. If it works then we should at least give some creedence to the results even if we do not necessarily agree with the theory.
Hope you'll agree to give this a go jimbo
My winter road bike weighs 23lbs
it has a 9 speed cassette and double compact chainset fitted
I currently weigh 16st 10lbs
height 5.11"
wrist circ is 8.5"
pinch and inch waist is 28mm
I have a compact 50x34 chainset
My rides are approx 20miles and quite hilly 80 -100 mt climbs
what else do you need to know to work out my ideal gearing?
