  1. I've heard that if a wheel uses cartridge bearings then there is a certain amount of lateral movement on the axel which can lead to vibration causing the squeaking.
  2. I'm 1.9m and always rode a XL and suffered with endless back pain on long rides. Now I'm riding a medium(56) Raliegh carbon bike and what a difference man. Although my seat post is almost as long as the tube I don't mind because with the shorter cross tube I ride more upright alleviating the stress on the lower back. Sometimes smaller is better
  3. Hi, I train with a dura ace 7900 groupset with ultegra w-6600 wheels.The ultegra wheels are fine with the dura ace brake blocks,but when I fit my DT Swiss RR1450 wheels they screech like hell. I have tried roughning the blocks and cleaning the rims but it doesn't help.Is there perhaps alternative brake block on the market?

  5. I have just read the whole negative thread thing and I had to have a good chuckle at some of the comments and it has actually put some positivaty into me.Sometimes a negative thread put in a humorous way can be a positive thing. Thanks for making my day
