Shimano has a 11-28 rear cog and then keep the front ring at a 39 to see if that works. if the small (39) front ring is still too hard you could monkey with...
I put a 1" to 1 1/8" adapter so I could use a normal stem. That, with a forward position seat post and I have a wonderful (and very fast) tri bike. _____ ...
Hello, I have a question for you fellow y foilers. I am getting ready to sell my beloved y foil. I was given an offer that I couldn't refuse. I have given...
My advise = Dont sell it. Y foil is a piece of bicycle history, never to be repeated thanks to the UCI. You will regret it later on. Like the 69 Mustang you...
