shaving your legs, arms, or both? @JohnHunt Actually, when you are hot and sweating, the hair muscles relax to keep the hair as flat as possible to aid the evaporation of sweat. when you are cold, the hairs raise to help trap air. So no hair is a benefit when warm, and a detractor when it's cold. |

Brake response is spongey post-brake lever upgrade Did you replace the brake cable, and/or tighten it properly? A badly tensioned brake cable can produce a "spongy" braking feel. |

Why would one ever buy a 12-25 cassette when an 11-25 is available? @DanielRHicks - exactly right. I have an 11-25, and I find I very often have a "gap" where a 16 fits perfectly. I can find the number of times I've used the 11 on one hand with a couple fingers and thumb left over. |

Aerobars on a hybrid Most extensions (As pictured in the other answer) are only a few bucks, and most that I've seen are way cheaper than full aerobars. |

The Scope Of The Lance Armstrong Doping Scandal Yes, they are slowly winning. But I do think that elite cycling (cat 1/2 and up) is still doping, and that the tests are always a reactive measure trying to keep up with new techniques. |

what should ibe the first thing i upgrade on my bike? What does the bike not do now, that it will do if you replace X? What improvement will you get out of the $$ that you wouldn't get just by more saddle time? |

What are the steepest, highest, most miserable road ascents in the world? In addition, what about mountain bike trails? Other offroad trails that maybe aren't steep, but contain other dangers such as a cliff wall two inches from your handlebars on one side, 2000 foot drop with no guardrail? It's a lot more subjective than you initially think. |

Does the USADA have the authority to strip Lance Armstrong of his Tour de France titles? Possibly, although Jan Ullrich (2nd in 2000, 2001 and 2003) was convicted of doping and all of his results nullified from 2005-2007. Beloki was implicated in Operacion Puerto (Although later cleared), Basso got a 2 year doping ban, Rumas, Vinikourov, Moreau, Hamilton, Leipheimer, Gonzalez, Virenque...all either received doping bans or were implicated. |
