Amazon.com Bicycle Buying Guide Finding the Right Bike To really enjoy cycling, it's important to find a bicycle that works for you. Here are some things to keep in mind when you're in the market for a new bike: The Right Ride In general, bikes are broken down into three major categories: Road and Racing Bikes--As a general rule, road and racing are built for speed and longer distances on paved surfaces. Thinner tires, lightweight 29-inch (700c) wheels, and drop bars that allow for a more aerodynamic position are the norm. Most road bikes, regardless of price, offer many gears for tackling both hilly and flat terrain. Mountain Bikes--With their larger tires, hill-friendly gearing, and upright position, mountain bikes are very popular for all types of riding, both on pavement and off. Mountain bikes that are designed specifically for rugged trail use typically feature a suspension fork. Some may have rear suspension, as well. A quick change of the tires on any mountain bike--even one that you use regularly on trails--adds to its versatility and makes it a worthy street machine. Comfort/Cruiser Bikes--For tooling around on bike paths, light trails, or for cruising a quiet beach-side lane, comfort/cruiser bikes are the ticket. With a super-relaxed riding position, padded seats, and limited or no gearing, these bikes are made for enjoying the scenery and having fun with the family. The Right Price A bike's price boils down to three essentials: frame materials, bike weight, and component quality and durability. Entry-level--You'll find a wide range of comfort and cruiser bikes in this category, as well as some lower-end mountain bikes and road bikes. Most will have steel frames and components that are designed to last for several years with frequent use. Mid-range--Bikes in this range may feature a lighter aluminum frame with mid-range components that keep performing after miles of use. If you're looking for a quality bike that is relatively lightweight and will stand up to abuse, this is the "sweet spot." Most serious commuter and touring bikes fall into this category, as do mid-range mountain bikes with a decent front suspension. High-end--Racers and serious enthusiasts who expect lightweight, high-performance components will want to stick to this category. For road bikes, exotic frame materials (carbon fiber, titanium) and ultralightweight components can add thousands to the price tag. Mountain bikes in this class often feature advanced front and rear suspension technology, as well as components designed to handle lots of rugged trail action. The Right Size Fit is crucial for comfort, control, and proper power and endurance on a bike. Here are some basic bike fit tips: Stand-over Height--To find out if a bike's overall height fits your body, measure your inseam. Next, determine how much clearance you'll need between your crotch and the top tube of the bike. For a mountain bike, you'll want three to five inches of clearance. A road bike should offer between one and two inches of clearance, while a commuter bike should have two to four inches. Compare the stand-over height for a given bike to your measurements (inseam + clearance) to determine the right bike height. Top Tube Length--You can measure your torso to get a good estimate of proper top tube length. First, make a fist and extend your arm. Measure from the center of your fist to the end of your collarbone (the part that intersects your shoulder). Next, measure your torso by placing a book against your crotch with the spine facing up. Measure from the spine to the bottom of your throat (the spot between your collarbones). Finally, add the two measurements (arm length + torso length), divide the number in half, and subtract six inches. This is your approximate top tube length. Compare this number to a bike's posted top tube length. You can allow for about two inches longer or shorter, as most bikes can be adjusted via stem length/height and saddle fore/aft position to make fine adjustments to the fit. Bikes for Women--Proportionally, women tend to have a shorter torso and longer legs than men. Bike makers design women's bikes that offer a shorter top tube and many comfort/cruiser bikes built for women may also provide more stand-over clearance. The Right Accessories When you make a bike purchase, don't forget these crucial add-ons: Helmet (this is a must!) Seat pack Lock Hydration pack, or water bottle and bottle cage Spare tubes Portable bike pump Gloves

Carbon Bicycle Saddle

Some people are fast. Others are good at distance but they don't do it quickly. To be fast on long rides you need to develop both endurance and power. If you are missing either you will slow or not make it to the finish. Here are 3 workouts that will help you be fast and let you go the distance.

Extensive Threshold Repeats

Threshold Repeats are used by cyclists of all levels to improve their Functional Threshold power(max 60 min power) but for endurance cyclists I throw in a twist. The standard Threshold Repeat is 20 minutes steady at you threshold power. Usually people do one or two of these in a workout. For endurance cyclists we build more repeats. Start with two time trials of 20 minutes at your threshold power. If you don't have a power meter it should feel like you are working very hard but if you went harder your legs would blow up. Your threshold is your hardest sustainable power for 60 minutes so breaking it into 20 minutes blocks with 5-10 minutes of easy riding between makes them mentally easier to accomplish.

Each week add 10 minutes so the second week would be 2 X 20 minutes and 1 X 10 minutes. The third week would be 3 X 20 minutes. Following smart training principles, make the fourth week easier and start building again in the fifth week where you would do 3 X 20 minutes and 1 x 10 minutes. These are very taxing workouts but they build speed, aerobic capacity and muscular endurance.

Build to a maximum of 8 repeats in a single workout. The power may drop slightly on the last few efforts but the perceived exertion should stay the same. Over time you will be able to keep the average power up for all the intervals. This is an effective way to build your sustainable speed for long distances.

Velmax Stack Workout

These intervals are 30 second hard efforts(135% of Functional Threshold Power) with 30 second recovery. The typical workout will 20-40 repeats. Velmax intervals are very effective for building threshold power and repeatability of hard efforts. When you stack them into a longer workout you have one the will really increase fatigue resistance. The way to do one of these workouts will be to ride 60-120 minutes in the aerobic to tempo range and then do 30 Velmax intervals. In a stack workout you hit multiple systems to get a bigger over all workload in less time. You will find these really hard but again hard work is where the gains come from. Incrementally increasing the number of hard efforts in a workout will build the capacity to go strong even late in an event.

Aerobic Endurance Blocks

These are multiple days in a row of long rides in the Aerobic and Tempo zone. Over the course of 3-4 days you will do 9-16 hours of riding. This would be hard to do often with most peoples schedule but if you plan it once every 3-4 weeks you can usually rearrange your schedule for that few days. You will get a big increase in aerobic endurance and recovery ability from block like this.

After each of these rides make sure to get 120-150 grams of carbohydrates in the 3 hours after the ride to replenish your glycogen stocks for the next day. Spread the intake out with 80 grams of carbs and 20 grams of protein in the first hour after riding.

A block would look something like this:

Day 1 - 3 hours steady aerobic

Day 2 - 4 hours aerobic with 20 -40 minutes in the tempo zone

Day 3 - 4 hours aerobic with 20-40 minutes in the tempo zone

Day 4 - 4 hour group ride with hills and fast paceline work

Day 5 - 20 minute easy recovery ride

Day 6 - Rest

Day 7 - 60 minute aerobic zone

Overview

As you can see with these workouts, they are more than just riding long periods of time. Each workout has a goal and you will see more progress than just putting in more time. With the first two workouts, you don't want to do either of them more than once a week. With hard work come the need for hard recovery. Too much of a good thing is still too much.

It's in you to become a better cyclist. Helping you get there is my number one goal. Equipment, riding skills, fitness and nutrition all have to be dialed in to reach your potential. To take your next step on that journey visit http://www.cyclecambridge.com

Cannondale f300

8 Useful Tips On Cannondale and Cannondale F300

The following article contains, what I think at least, useful tips about cannondale and cannondale f300.

Let's face it, reading 8 tips isn't going to change your life, but at least it will give you an idea about what you can find out about cannondale.

I hope that you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed collating them. You can never know enough about cannondale, can you?

Tip #1

Since two or more riders are required to ride a tandem bicycle, this could prove to be quite challenging if the riders are of different heights and weights. They will each have to match the other's pace in order to synchronise their movements and get a degree of uniformity. Perhaps, this challenge is what attracts cyclists to tandem bicycles.

Tip #2

Bicycles have come a long way since the Penny Farthing, though the general concept hasn't actually changed that much since the 19th century. The main difference now, you'll be pleased to know, is that bikes are far more comfortable than they were back then! It's difficult now to imagine a bicycle made out of wood, or solid rubber tyres, though I'm sure back then bike manufacturers would not have dreamed a bicycle would have its own suspension either!

Tip #3

The cost of the bicycle plays a very important role when it comes to purchasing a good mountain bicycle. Basically, the price of the bike depends on the material used for its construction. The most expensive bikes are the once with Titanium and carbon fiber frames, once made of steel are relatively cheaper.

Tip #4

Cannondale f300 bikes have really risen to popularity in the last decade or so. Buying a full cannondale f300 bike is probably pointless unless you're intending to go tearing up and down mountains! Mountain bikes have very sturdy and chunky frames, chunky tyres, and most these days also have dual suspension. Importantly they also have very low gear ratios so that riders are able to get up hills effectively. But on the downside, full mountain bikes aren't really very good for cycling on roads because the chunky tyres cause a lot of drag.

Tip #5

In the cycling world, the term hybrid refers to bicycles with electric motors . Yep, that's traditional push pedaling made easy with electricity . Instead of more gas mileage, you get more miles pedaling and best yet, you don't have to buy gas (because it's a bicycle).

Tip #6

While riding a cannondale f300 bicycle, the rider must enjoy the ride to the fullest. This is possible only when he has a good bicycle with an extremely comfortable seat. With an uncomfortable seat, riding the bicycle can cause a nerve breaking experience. This is how, bicycle saddles are so important.

Tip #7

Vehicle drivers' errors or inattention are the most frequent cause of bicycle crashes. Loose gravel on the road and rain-slicked surfaces frequently contributes to crashes. Speed increases risk; cyclists are more likely to sustain serious injury when they are riding fast. Doing stunts on your bicycles also increases the odds of accidents and injury.

Tip #8

Most of us got one when we were kids. Five years old seems about the age when kids are ready for their first ride. Getting your first bike is really a time of excitement. Most kids probably had training wheels on their first bike, these were used to keep the bike from falling down, while the kid was still on it. That was the trick with the bicycle, before you could learn to ride, you had to learn how to not fall off the seat. Once you learned how to ride, having your bike became a very liberating experience. It was probably your first taste of independence; you could just get on your bike and ride without needing help.

Hope you found these 8 tips useful, as it's not always easy to track accurate information down!

The Internet is full of information about cannondale, but it's not always easy to find stuff that's actually useful - especially where cannondale f300 is concerned. I hope that these tips have been.

The weight is about the same-- maybe the carbon is 1lb lighter... Also, bikes are an additional 20% off the sale price.

Thank you!

Scattante is a brand Performance acquired when they purchased another bicycle retailer. (Maybe Supergo, but I don't really remember.) Like many other companies, Performance has these private label bike frames made in Asia. I've taken a gander at a number of these frames when wandering through my local Performance Shop and they look OK.

Component wise, they both have a pretty typical mix of stuff that will be found on most bikes at this price level. With more Ultegra stuff, I'd be somewhat tempted by the R660. Mind you, there is nothing wrong with 105 components, but Ultegra is a bit lighter and smoother.

Honestly though, I'd forget about the components and focus on the ride quality. Get the shop to fit you, then take each one for an hour or so ride. Buy the one that feels best to you. Don't buy after a 10 minute ride in the parking lot. That simply won't turn up issues with fit and comfort.

I love Performance and have spent thousands of dollars in their shop and online. The local manager is a buddy and I know most of their mechanics by name. I have never been impressed with their bicycle sales people, though, and have never bought a bike there. I strongly recommend you ride some comparably priced bikes at other shops. I'd try out theTrek, Cannondale, Specialized and Giant in roughly the same price range. You may find you love a Scattante, or you may find another bike that is just perfect for you.

Hope this helps.
