Review: Fidlock's Bottle Twist Uses Magnets to Hold Your Water Bottle
As much as I like my Fabric bottles when they work, I regularly lose a bottle (like every 2/3 months)... on my road bike (usually on rough descents, or bunny hops to avoid potholes). Can't imagine using them on a mountain bike.

Development Story: Cannondale's Wild New Single-Sided, Single-Crown XC Fork
So it's heavier than a pike? Mmh. I'd rather modify a pike to 100mm if I want a stiff xc fork.

Pinkbike Poll - Would You Take a Free 250 Watts if No One Knew?
I think having a 600w ftp would be a bit suspicious during competition... :D

Humbled: Mike Levy vs Richie Rude in the Gym - Video
@Kiotae: agree! I can do 700w for a minute and I suck at regional level. Not sure the description of these numbers makes any sense as I thought I had read Rude's max power was above 2000w. Was the 550+ watts a MAP ramp test?

Race Face Releases Cinch Power Meter
@velocitajano: It's more to be efficient at spending my energy. For instance I know I can in theory hold 340w for an hour, so during races I know I should not go above, say, 2 minutes over 450w or my fatigue level will not be optimal and in the long run. Anything above that is anaerobic and would fatigue me way faster. Also trying to smooth power has a drastic effect on fatigue. It's all optimization.
But for training you're right, it makes more sense on a road bike.

Race Face Releases Cinch Power Meter
it's left only, multiplied x2. I was wondering why it was not showing any watts when I got it and placed the bike on the workstand, and pedaled with the right crank :D
