Police seeking cyclist who assaulted pedestrians
And another one! What is it with these cyclists who go around attacking
people? http://www.itv.com/news/london/updat...rious-assault/ Police have released CCTV to trace a cyclist they want to speak to in connection with a serious assault on a woman in south London. The incident happened near Costcutters on Norwood Road in Herne Hill (SE24) at around 22.50 hrs on Wednesday 29 February. A 34-year-old woman was walking home alone when she was hit in the head. She is in a serious but stable condition in hospital. A 46-year-old man was also punched further along the street but did not require hospital treatment. The suspect is described as black, wearing a long dark coat and riding a mountain bike. |

Trek Domane launch: Pave-busting road bike with… suspension + video
QUOTE: Hey, we told you so. Back when we were speculating on the sneak peek shots of Trek's new Domane underneath Fabian Cancellara at the Strade Bianche, we conjectured (is that a word?) that the seatpost and the main frame were separate. And they are. Spartacus himself has been heavily involved with the design process, and the bike "specifically addresses the challenges of rough road conditions found throughout the spring classics courses with a collection of key innovations unlike any available before today", according to Trek. The Domane (That's Do-MAH-nee, apparently, which is latin for "King's crown" as well as being an anagram of Madone) features a technology which Trek have christened IsoSpeed. It's a "functional decoupler that separates the ride-tuned seat mast from the top tube". So effectively the the seat tube isn't attached to the top tube and seatstays like you'd normally expect, but instead is held in place by a pivot and some kind of elastomer coupling that acts as a buffer between the seat mast and the top tube. Being an elastomer it will act as a damper which also perhaps opens the possibility of further tuning the ride… not that we'd fancy trying to take it out. http://road.cc/content/news/56064-tr...spension-video -- Simon Mason |
