He is right as long as he is happy to remain a "one-club golfer". Personally, I'g get rather bored.

just think how fast he would go if he learnt to "spin"
I'm sure I have read of research in the laboratory that shows that about 60rpm is in fact the most mechanically efficient (in the body, not in the bike) method of putting power down.


Most studies are done at low wattages though. Nik's written some stuff about why he does it on the timetriallingforum, can't find link at the moment I'm afraid.
