POLL - Tour de France
Like many other fellow readers and posters I am watching every stage of the Tour. While the decisive stage could be today, the question is:
Who in the peloton has the worst knee tracking and why?

Tour de France - bummed but excited!
I am not going to talk about how many Cleat Wedges are in the Peloton but there are a lot more than most people think.

First: I am bummed as everyone else in the office here at BikeFit.com that Christian is out.
Second: We are having a great time watching Todd at VeloCenter on http://www.velonews.com/ check it out. I think you will also enjoy this coverage.

Shimano D I 2 - another perspective
I was all excited to get my new Tarmac with Shimano DI2. Admittedly the cool factor had me overlooking an issue. My wrist was starting to hurt and I was trying to come up with all kinds of reasons why this was happen. Then I finally pushed through the cool factor and found the source.
Just a note (perhaps a warning). See the gap at the top of the hood where it meets the handlebar in the first photo.
Second photo shows a filled in gap. Cory at Woodinville Bike Shop ( www.woodinvillebicycle.com )did this for me.
It appears as though the clamp that wraps around the bar and holds the hood in place is lower than on other models of brake levers. This lowering of the clamp seems to be part of the issue. Whatever it is (over sight by Shimano possibly) I am not able to recommend this product. It functions very well but the ergonomics have a long way to go.
Although it is better with the 'fill in' I am ready to “Make the Leap.” Too many customers rant and rave over the comfort of the Sram brake levers. No doubt they will get another “Connection of Excellence” award this year from BikeFit.com
