Martyn Ashton: Road Bike Party

Outdoor Ed — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 05:10:54 GMT

Martyn Ashton takes the £10k carbon road bike used by Team Sky's Bradley Wiggins & Mark Cavendish for a ride with a difference. With a plan to push the limits of road biking as far as his lycra legs would dare, Martyn looked to get his ultimate ride out of the awesome Pinarello Dogma 2. This bike won the 2012 Tour de France - surely it deserves a Road Bike Party!

Shot in various locations around the UK and featuring music from 'Sound of Guns'. Road Bike Party captures some of the toughest stunts ever pulled on a carbon road bike.

How To Fit Your Road Bike

Outdoor Ed — Sun, 03 Apr 2011 04:21:21 GMT

Dan, an REI Outdoor School instructor, shows how to fit your road bike properly in this video. To check that your bike is the right size for your legs, straddle the bike: You want about an inch clearance above the frame. To check the seat height: get on while a friend holds the frame steady—you want your leg about 90% extended (still slightly bent). The seat can also move forward or back; when your pedal is all the way up, you want that bent leg vertical so that your knee is over the ball of your foot. The bike fits your torso when your back is at a 45-degree angle and your arms are somewhat bent; you may need to change the handlebar stem out for a longer or shorter one to get the right torso length.
