  1. The new GX Dub crank is a bit disappointing… BB already going SQUEAKY… brakes are better than expected.. Not spongy like the old ones..
  2. I’m riding Spez Roubaix 32 tyres on my Cannondale Supersix EVO, 2019, rimbrake. frame clearance is ok, but Dura Ace brake bridge has about 2 mm clearance, so with stiff wheels that’s OK. I Just don’t use it in too much rain or mud.
  3. Looking forward to see the new routes in Elgin… singletrack heaven…
  4. CONFUSION is an understatement….!!! entries lost …. Race numbers not assigned… and the list goes on… and on Then the wind got the blame.. The wind was totally rideable, just an additional challenge…
  5. Shame…. Let’s take it down one level.. And play victim..? 🥺
  6. Whooo loads of contradictory statements here… OK, first he needs to instruct a legal team to assist in finding out how this substance snuk up on him….🤔??? “I have instructed legal representation to assist me in determining the source of the prohibited substance and I have instructed them to ask for my B Sample to be tested and to launch an inquiry into the possible causes for the positive test." Then wifey says(and please note, she has the Doper Lingo right..)🤪 "He wasn't doing any steroids in Turkey. He has hectic Sinusitis and was using a spray to release the tension he was feeling in the nose. Only after the news came out this week did we discover that the Clenbuterol found his drug test was the same substance in the nasal spray he had used when he landed," said Ristic. Well… uuuhhhh …. Maybe, not WHILE IN TURKEY so if not in Turkey…where then…?🇿🇦🇨🇦🇦🇷🇱🇷🇫🇷🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈….?

  12. Please put your first ride on GoPro….. after shortening the cranks… I need to see this…. ????????
  13. To answer your question... Because it’s worth it..... ????????

  15. Check if both pads hit the rotor at the same time when braking when they’re off centre, they can also feel a bit spongy after the first pad touched... they( Shimano brakes) should hit hard. if this still doesn’t work ensure lever is level...(horizontal) and use piston spicer in caliper. try connecting two syringes, and do bottom up bleed to force air out in the hose. once in top syringe, cycle a few time to ensure all air is forced to top. ensure not to force any air back down( keep the top syringe upright) once done, close bottom feednut. Then gently unscrew top syringe.( some oil might spill) screw seal nut back in... squeeze lever... and feel happiness!!!! pour yourself a tall beer....
  16. You can ask for an upgrade, but the shop might charge for the extra blade... no need to get a whole new XT crankset.. if you are used to riding a 34 with 42t at the back, then 36 up front will be fine with 51t at the back..
