No one ridden this before

Does anyone have info on the route for this event. How is the roads, elevation?

Thanks, these should be issues you should then experience on a MTB as well, except maybe the issue with lighter wheels, Sounded like a valid argument so your rreponse on the issue added more value.

Definitely not shopping new . So mostly it is caliper, but then I found one with Discs. I have done around 120 000 km on my current roadbike and bought it second had , so looking for the best value I can get but that will last a few years as well.

Have a few options of 2014/5 models Bianchi with SRAM red 10 speed caliper brakes, vs Gian 2018 with 11 spd, and disc breaks. I am leaning to the future proofing.

Hi, I am looking to replace my old bike that I have been riding from 2009. So my question is with the new technology around, Do I get an older higher spec( 10speed, dura ace) bike or a newer bike slightly lower spec (disc , 11spd, disc brakes) . Would it be an issue in 5 years to get spares for the caliper brakes for instance?

Thanks for the feedback. Will be using the knowledge gained

Hi, My son would need to get his learners license in a few months time. Is there people with some tips to just make it a bit easier to get booking, and where to get the best study aids to ensure a pass first time. Thanks

Thanks, I assumed Hubs to be replaced, but was wondering about the gains if I have new Hubs, but sound like it is not much. I guess it can only make you stronger if you have to pedal a bit harder.

I have a 29er with Cup & cone entry level wheel bearings. Would it be beneficial(easier ride/less friction) if I upgrade to better bearings?

Thanks, I have installed it and will test it this weekend

Hi, I am one of the Guys who cycles on a budget and could therefore never afford on of the fancier Garmins etc where you can download a GPX file. I am thinking of doing the Race to the sun but see you need to have a GPS device that can download the route. One thing that never came to mind before is that my Cellphone would probably be able to do this with the correct APP. So my question is , what would be the best app to download for Cycling to use where I can download gpx files and then use them while riding.

Hoping Meintjies and pozzovivo can deliver more points in the Giro, Nizzolo will probanly be there as well.

My Main issue with NTT is the fact that they did not ride that much as a team , and the sprinters seem to work each for them selves , or if the had a leadout , they started to early, I guess it is not that easy to manage but they seem to either drop the sprinter of at 1 km or they were going at it all alone. 10th and 12th in the final an example.

Loved it as well. Nice to see the passion behind the scenes . Landa totally different to what imagined him to be. Nairo, just not happy, Well you could see the difference in his results this year. He might have won the Tour.
