    Is there a carbon fiber version for the lycra superhero set? With composites they could get the coconut weight down to within the capacity of a single unladen European swallow.

    The Myth of the Upstroke
    Almost all of us have, at some point in our cycling careers, been coached or advised to pull-up on the pedals by well-meaning friends and peers. And we have all dutifully tried our best to visualize ‘spinning plates’ or similar; because the logic of pulling up is irrefutable. There’s a longer and smoother pedal stroke at the end of the rainbow. Or is there?
