…do you have them on your road bike and TT bike?

I have been told in order for them to be maximally effective, you must have them on both.

Thanks,

Dave

yes, I have them on all my bikes, but when I started riding/racing on them I only had them on my TT bike and I saw substantial gains after only riding them 4 times over a 1 month period.

if you are in the San Diego or SoCal area you will have the opportunity to ‘try before you buy’ because I am in the process of building a Rotor Test Bike that you can ride to get a feel for the Rotors.

Initially the plan is to have the bike available in No. SD County, for LA, Orange, Riverside and San Diego customers (within 1 - 1.5 hr drive).

A client of mine has offered to help finance my next TT season with a $1000 CDN gift. She only specified it be cycling specific and beneficial to my racing. I am therefore considering the following:

  1. Rotorcranks for my road and TT bike.

  2. New TT frame: one that fits me better. Another option is one of the other choices plus an ergostem.

  3. PowerTap Pro: very useful and good training tool.

  4. A new, higher tech trainer (I-magic by tacx, most likely).

I will obviously have to kick in some $$, but that would be a given anyway, at least that’s what I would tell my wife…

What do you think would be the best investment for the most gain in TT’s?

  1. Rotorcranks for my road and TT bike. = 2-3 minutes over 40k

  2. New TT frame: one that fits me better. Another option is one of the other choices plus an ergostem. **= maybe a few seconds + over 40k? cant be sure ** ****

  3. PowerTap Pro: very useful and good training tool. = guage your efforts while training, good but just like a HRM, its a tool only

  4. A new, higher tech trainer (I-magic by tacx, most likely). = better trainer? ********

If they dont work for you, just send them back for a full refund. 95% of riders wh order Rotors continue to race on train on them, I’m pretty sure that you will be happy with them. **** To get an idea on the pricing and availability right now (big shipment coming in right before x-mas), fill out this form (no obligation) and Rotor will e-mail you back: **** http://www.timetrial.org/rotor-order.htm **** Best of luck, let me know how it works out for you!!!vI can answer specific questions when you get your set, like setup and getting used to the feel. **** ****
