ROGER STANISLOWSKI Zwei plus Zwei, Cologne, Germany I’m convinced that the German market for electric bicycles will expand to the same level as in the Netherlands, particularly due to recent legal changes and technical improvements. That is the reason why our company will start selling electric bicycles next year. LORIS BALDIN Star Due, Italy It’s not so easy to sell e-bikes in Italy.

Uit de verte klinkt als­ maar luidruchtiger "Opgepast". de renners zijn in aantocht! De renners zijn in aantocht!" van een in topvorm verkerende speaker.

Zij hebben dan ook de meeste supporters achter zich. Het peloton is op dit ogenblik nog vrij compact. Daverend op hun vel­ gen draaien die sterke kerels één na één, als aan een draad gebonden, in volle concentratie en met het rechter been gespannen, door de linke bocht. Enkele coureurs snuiten nog even krachtig uit hun met stof besmeurde neus. Andere grijpen nog snel naar een drinkbus. De door de renners opwaaiende wind vermengt de geur van de naar massage­ zalf ruikende kuiten met de nicotine- en bierwalmen uit het café. De bijkomende stemming is typisch voor de regio en het hele platteland. Van zodra de laatste renner aan de horizon verdwijnt, vliegt de bende supporters even snel als tevoren terug het café binnen.

Compression and its influence on physiology 4. Compression for medical uses 5. Evaluation of compression for sportswear 5.1 Effects of using compression garments 6. Application of compression sportswear 6.1Cycling 6.2 Skiing 6.3 Rugby 7 Market trends in compression sportswear 8 Contextual factors affecting compression garment performance 1. Garment sizing 2. Body shape 3. Sizing and designing with stretch fabrics 4. Fabric panels 9 Summary and conclusions 10 References 1.0 INTRODUCTION Sport and exercise involves physical movement of the body (torso, upper and lower limbs) and, in some cases, amateurs and professionals alike endure soft tissue injury. At the elite level, improved individual performance during a tournament or a game is vital. Many athletes consider that compression of muscles to support, enhance muscle alignment and improve the efficiency of muscle movements is essential. They also adopt the adage of strapping the injured part to assist recovery from injury. In recent years, there has been an increase in usage and demand for compression garments for a 1 number of sportswear applications and recreational activities due to their ability to offer functional support to the wearer. The main aim of this chapter is to present research relating to compression garments and highlight the recent developments relating to specific sports such as cycling, skiing and rugby. The benefits of compression garments were documented in various settings (sports, clinical and non-clinical), although convincing evidence remains elusive. The reported benefits of using compression garments were mainly in enhancing blood circulation, reducing the recurrence of injury, aiding recovery, providing muscle support and reducing muscle soreness.

T and weight behind a touring group at the Ultegra This is asking a lot, but: A matching 7-speed indexable bar-end level. Here’s what I’d like to see: shifter would be great. You can tour with STI, but bar-end shifters A 132.5mm rear hub, which would fit in either a 130mm make more sense, and seven rear cogs is plenty for non-racing frame or a 135mm frame. Both sizes have been common for use. The rear wheel would be stronger, and the chain wouldn’t years now, and the proposed group should accommodate either. require a special pin, as the current 9-speed chains do. The in-between 132.5mm-spaced rear hub would do that. If it Current, interbrand-usable bottom brackets. These days were a 130 or 135, no biggie. I think the concept of “splittin’ the Shimano’s top groups come with the bottom brackets that have diff” might not sit well with Shimano’s engineers.
