What's new at sheldonbrown.com
I’ve responded to a request from a reader for more information about quick-release skewer lengths by going further, with a major expansion of the article about quick releases. The article now covers wheel installation, secondary retention devices including the much-derided “lawyer lips”, and much more. — http://sheldonbrown.com/skewers.html — John Allen, for sheldonbrown.com
We now have a review of the Sony HDR-AS100 action camera, highlighting its image stabilization feature.
Edits to a number of articles in the Jobst Brandt series, and an embedded video in the one about front-end shimmy.
The list of Sturmey-Archer indicator spindles now sorts either on the part number or on the spindle length, with a mouse click.
David Prosser of Sturmey Archer has sent information about a couple of Sturmey-Archer indicator spindles (the chain-pull assembly which shifts the hub). It is now on our indicator spindle page. Thanks David!
The cable travel adapter cribsheet has been edited to include more information, and links.
It took a few days to finish — the big page about products of interest seen on the show floor at the Interbike trade show.
I’ll be at the Interbike bicycle trade show in Las Vegas this week. I’ll be reporting on it here and on the Web page: http://sheldonbrown.com/las-vegas2014.html . — John Allen, for sheldonbrown.com.
