Any opinions on Shimano's BioPace sprockets? I put a set on my
ancient Peugeot, and am not sure whether I can detect a difference
save for one thing, which is that my legs seem to tire more easily.
I speculate that the constant load may inhibit blood circulation.
Anybody else got two cents worth?

The bottom two chainrings on my triple are Sugino Elipticals (which is not quite the same thing). The only time I notice is when cranking up a hill using the 28 eliptical chainring and 28 cog. A friend of mine got on my bike on a wind trainer and immediatly noticed that something was unusual... I don't know if he felt it in the peddaling or looked down to see the chain bobbing up and down. There may be some benifit to out-of-round chainrings but I can't realy tell. -John A. Wasser | |||||
