Gobi and TRO are the Wattbike kings. I just dabble. And you’re pedalling with one leg more than t’other

Which is odd Grepster, because the leg that gave 51% of my power is the one with the dodgy achilles which I thought would be weaker. Is 51/49 an unusually out-of-balance situation? |

Not even slightly. The objective is to turn your peanut into a sausage. Worryingly that is not a joke. |

So what does the wobbly peanut mean? It must mean something. And how do I make it more sausagelike? And what even are the advantages of sausages to a vegetarian?

Vegetarian sausages are available, if that’s the way you swing. Your wobbly peanut/figure of eight means that your power output is not even throughout the pedal cycle. The more evenly you distribute power the more sausage-like you become. |

Ok, so if it slopes top left to bottom right what to I do to flatten it? I’m assuming flat is better.

Have had a mini break/Easy 5 days and now time to push on again. DVD extras This 5.6kgs beauty of which I have explained the spec but can do again suffice to say 830 grams for a pair of wheels Trip to Paris to see G just for 1 day - priceless Finally built my Holdsworth Sold my old Allez !!! |
