Actually, I was hearing some creaking noises coming from the back of my Giro this last weekend. Any time I was peddling it was making a creaking sound, not...
Vern, Is the Giro seat bonded like the Aero? I would call Bacchetta, so they could give the shop a heads up on what to look for. they might not know about the...
This problem happened to me on my Aero and was fixed at Bacchetta's expense. I had the bike in my car for weeks and heat in the car probably caused the...
It may not be anything to worry about. Tighten the seat strut bolts and maybe lube them. It could very well be the mesh fabric rubbing over the seat frame. I...
The Giro uses the sliding plastic clamp seat mount with the 'Frankenstein bolt'. The Aero has the Aluminum seat bracket mounted to the Titanium frame tube. The...
Sat. Aug 26, 2006 www.hh100.org I just registered. Ken "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because tough men stand ready to do violence on...
Vern, What folks are trying to say is that your squeek is not likely to be a harbinger of doom for your bike. Sure, your bike is telling you something isn't...
Okay, I'm curious how many of you have not only kept your DF bikes, but continue to ride both your bend and DF on a regular basis. Do you find that you have...
... I my case they repalced the frame with my components the same day. I was lucky I was in FL 2 hrs from them I called explained that I was in FL for a month...
From SloToReply Steve, Actually, I ended up comparing BikeFriday's newly revised SAT R DAY Tour Extra with Lightning's P-38 Voyager (with similar components). ...
I rode my DF last weekend b/c I knew I had to leave it near a hiking trail and bushwhack the rest of the way. Not wanting to leave or lock my bent to a tree,...
... I've gone back and forth between recumbents and uprights for over twenty years. Up until a few years ago my mileage was split about 50/50 between the two...
... My bikejournal.com log shows that for 2006 so far, I've got only one ride on my Strada (~10 miles into work), and the other ~400 miles are 2:1 in favor of...
I kept my DF and ride it on occassion. No difficulty going back, it feels just as bad as it did before I got my Giro 26. I try to ride it every so often and I...
Like Bill and others I tend to take my upright (not DF!) Brompton on the short rides. I don't have to worry about locking and leaving. I take the folded bike...
I started riding a bent in June of 2003 for medical reasons but always thought that I'd return to my DF bikes when I healed up. Well, when my doctor cleared...
First time I was off the DF for six months I felt like I was going to fly over the bars :-) Took 10-20 minutes to get comfortable. I use the Corsa exclusively...
I posted photos from Saturday's ride. Nice day, I'm surprised more didn't participate. It was good seeing Jim O again and meeting Cletus from Texas and...
... Sorry you missed the sunset from the roof of Hurricane Seafood. Nothing beats watching the sun go down with a bunch of drunks (not us) and a loud band. ...
I drove by the Hurricane and decided to pass on the action there, (not really my scene). I caught the beautiful sunset from our (formerly Holiday Inn) hotel...
Hi Folks, I got a new Strada in Dec. 05 and have been really enjoying it. Once I built up my 'bent muscles' it has produced faster ride times than the Lemond...
My 55T big ring on my stock Aero has worked fine in sprints to 32 MPH or maybe a little faster on flat terrain, no wind. I don't recall what my cadence was at...
I was gonna say just get an 11t, then I looked at the Strada spec. I just switched from a 700c Corsa back to the Aero for a while, so I feel your pain. I have...
Good morning, I'd like to thank everyone who responded to my questions concerning a possible change from my current Barcroft Dakota to a Bacchetta. Actually,...
Hi Jim, What size do you need? M or L? Also, Bacchetta just announced the Aero 3K. $2995 for an Aero with Euromesh and Corsa spec parts. I don't have any...
Where can I find out more about the Aero 3K? Since buying my steel Corsa last October, I have ridden 4500 miles and am very interested in upgrading to...
