shouldering a bike

[kenyee]

Any of you guys ever try this w/ a CSI? I finally figured out where all the scratch marks on my shoulder are from...the cable supports cut into your shoulder if you throw it over your right shoulder. One of those cases when internal cable routing is better :-P

Guess I'll have to use my left shoulder from now on...

not carry it! :cool:


Cyclocross setup?? Too late for you, but you can have the cable guides mounted on top of the top tube.

Is it Climb that has the CSI with the cable guides at about 11 O'Clock on the top tube?? Check out the image gallery.

if you live in the city, you get to carry it up and down stairs :-P

Putting the guides at 11 o'clock makes a bit more sense to me. I'll have to remember that next time I shop :-)

-or- buy a nice steel frame with internal cable routing.

Looks kinda ghetto, but you can throw a piece of pipe insulation over the top tube/cable guide if you're going to 'cross with a bike with road style cable guides.

I often shoulder my bike to move it when I'm not riding it...it has no choice where its going that way...
