Thank Bud Hoffacker of Avocet for prying out the basic data. If you are one of the small minority who experience numbness, after riding, there are plenty of saddles featuring center slots for your equipment. By 1900, there were more than 1000 patents on bicycle saddles. While Papa was collecting catalogs and looking for trends, Ben was visiting the off-beat booths. Power Tap is a rear hub that measures the riders power output.
Coaches say power output monitors are the future of training.
Champion and Powerbar have new energy drinks. Pygmy Pack is a waterproof nylon soft case made to fit around a bicycle's drive train. It looks perfect for keeping chain and chainrings from scuffing up car upholstery, or for keeping the drive train free from dust and bugs when mounted on a car carrier. For history buffs, Bianchi showed Fausto Coppi's 1952 Tour de France winning bike. Coppi also used this bike to win the 1949 Tour de France and it was designed for a Campagnolo Corsa rear derailleur.
