Refreshing Wave of Keirin - Part 2.

I know that everyone who reads Hipster Nascar also reads the far, far superior Trackosaurus Rex, so you've all already seen this video. But, I just had to post it again. It is nuts. I don't think I've ever seen a cadence this high. Plus: rollers! Check it out.

reminds me of irosprints, no resistance

140rpm lol try 225-250rpm peak cadence. They can hit 225 no problem.


I just came back from a workout with some of those dudes at the local keirin track. Those rollers have no resistance on them but there is a load generator that can be attached that adds resistance or can be reversed, accelerating you and forcing you to ride a higher cadence.

They aren't cheap either. The plain jane unit is like 1250 bucks.
