Hi Folks,
I'm planning to add some more converters to www.fast-math.org. I
don't think I can make a spoke chart, and there are already plenty of
those. Also gearing charts. We already have weight, length and volume
conversions, among other things at www.fast-math.org. But, what I'm
wondering is what other kind of conversions might be useful for
bicycle riding and repairing? If you have any good ideas, I'll be glad
to add them.
Thanks,
- Jeff -

Grams saved to dollars spent. :)

A little off-topic: your bytes page at
http://www.odd-info.com/fastmath/bytes.htm
could provide both powers of 1000 and powers
of 1024. The IEC standard prefixes for the
latter (kibi-, mebi-, ...) haven't taken the
world by storm, but some people are using them.
