FYI, I tried to mount the pioneer but it wouldn't clear the chain stays.

With all that winter to spring keep-fit exercises a super effective saddle position is found in some millimeters and with 13cm handlebar drop the Jensie-style is showing of for 5 Minutes now, a good statement of easy-speedy before changing in the drops and just going on ..

Who on earth are you talking to in this thread? I think you need a twitter to put this junk on.

Sorry for disturbing your reading habits, but I don't need any advice how to mount Garmins and blink chains. I'm just thrilled by this precise machine called S5 and it's feedback to improve riding the last 4tmls ..

For me the S5 and it's way of being developed is game changing. It's very inspiring to push the envelope in many aspects even outside technology. Why not starting to discuss how interests like sports ore target work with machines like road bikes improve skills for this aspects. It's easy, just start to react on senses and build the story ..

Edit: It's like that. To answer your unexpected post took some time, 4 minutes. After that in a trainings routine before work I could close a gap to a 9 years old personal best time by 4 minutes. Good tail wind and the above described position to power effective while sitting calm were not all reasons. Because I wanted to make sure you'll find that example, I didn't post it on twitter ..

I was lucky enough to meet Sausskross at Eurobike a year or two ago. It was a pleasure. He may not be the easiest writer to understand, but his combination of passion for bicycle engineering and his capacity to enjoy the larger philosophical meaning is unmatched among riders I've met. He is a musician and artist whose first language is not English, but who loves riding road bikes and who appreciates their inspirational technology. He loves to share his experiences with other passionate riders. Read slowly and try to understand; you'll be a happier rider if you can gain a little bit more of his joy for the ride.

Yep! On saturday the bike shop managers wife asked me how many I'll ride till monday. "Difficult to say, maybe 250km." I answered and was a little bit wrong with my motivation. On Sunday it were 240km only. Plus on Saturday after work and on Monday morning before work 80km each. Rhythm workouts before took just one day sometimes. For power increase I'm getting a little bit old and hopefully can reach up to 95% during 20min full speed of former years. Weight did increase, too. But on the way to myself not everything is getting worse. Experience, endurance, tactics, all of this is very helpful. And the force of rhythm is strong in me. Rhythm done with muscles can be exhausting, but done with bones it is fun. Just like while endless handling with a toy bones are getting tired at last. Moving in their most favorite manner, somehow here and there mostly, pedaling is like playing beautiful circles just in time. Bones transmit all power with their stability easy by connection and interaction with every dynamic and static muscle in the most natural, efficient and biological easiest way. All this without detour to the brain, being far away too slow for that loop and just being able to watch everything like a live stream transmitted a few moments later. It can be very astonishing being driven by this playful frame underneath, moving bones // sitting on a expanded bones like machine for moving called road bike .. oSo >>

Already have a pair of Zipp 404 Firestrikes that will be transferred from an older frame.

Do you have a bike computer mounted on the NEW STYLE bars??

Can you post a pic??

I used Zipp bars instead so I could run an SRM powercontrol.

First thing to say: From the time getting used to the new Cervelo all carbon aero handlebar it is really hard to ride a classic round one, I didn't try other aero bars. Second thing: The last bike computer I did run till 2005 to check recovery time.

Do you know if the Pioneer power meter will work with the new S5, from the standpoint of the chain stays? Also do you know how to mount the computer with the new Cervelo aero handlebar?
Thanks
Andy

Damon is with Cannondale now. Maybe check with David Byer on the Cervelo forum.

I know for a fact it won't fit. I tried to install a dura ace pioneer pm and it wouldn't clear the stays.

Some reactions on a new S5 are funny. "It's made for 50km only and can just go straight", "it looks very uncomfortable", "it is heavy", "there is a e-engine in the bottom bracket", "the frame is too small" but after the first lead with appropriate speed all comments, negative ore funny, stop. The buddies start looking true at the machine .. oSo >>

With the 4th chain on since the new S5 arrived a view from the apple blossom road while sun is going down and coming home means to fall a sleep like a happy baby ..
