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?
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.
He did well on Sunday in similar type of Race, but there he was closing all the gaps in the last 20 kays and had no sprint left, So I think that was still fresh in the memory. He is in bloody good shape, Therefore if the races is hard he does better than the pure sprinter stages.
I know he spends a lot of time in Italy as well as some other members , wondering if they will be able to get out of Italy now to race. Maybe not for a while.
A good(bad) second for Nizollo again yesterday. Looks like he is in good form. The climbers also did well on Saturday in France. This while the guys were released from the UAE tour last night as well.
I am looking to set up lights for outside mainly for security reasons and maybe some inside as well . If you do lights only that can work of DC you do not need an inverter, My question is , Can you use any battery? Like a car battery for instance to be charged via a solar panel?
De Bod ruled out of the rest of the tour together with Thompson after yesterdays fall early in the stage . At least Possovivo who also fell is still in.
