Already swoping the wheels when I need to ride so was hoping to avoid swopping saddles as well. had thought of it.

Hi guys, I have Adamo saddles on my TT and MTB bikes but just built up a road bike and don't have the cash to splurge on one for it. Anyone got some recommendations to a saddle similar to it at a reasonable price? Thanks

I bought from a similar site. Found the quality and sizing comparable to Anatomic.

Running is great training for cycling. Just did 3-stage race with a mate. He had done NO CYCLING training for the race but was super fit from running. I couldn't keep up with him!!! From my experience (I run and cycle), you can get away with a shorter run for the same cycling effort. What the ratio is, I'm not sure.

Thanks. I need the 11 as I find I tend to 'run out gears' on the flats while on the TT bike, but I definitely need some help in the hills so a 25 would help. Thanks for the advice guys...

Thanks-have a standard crank. Great so 11-25 best bet...

What is the best/most versatile cassette ratio for road/tt? I know you should ideally have one for TT and for road but is there a good compromise? I live in PE, so looking for a cassette I can do road & TT races. Not too many serious hills but there are some and I need all the help I can get. Was looking at a 11-28? Any advise would be great.

Well I did the update and now the measurements are all over the place Struggles to pick up a sat signal and keeps resetting the time. Going to have to google a solution...

Bought tons of stuff from eBay over the years from Software to bike parts. Never had any issues - just check the seller's feedback ratings and number of items sold. Don't think there are any duties on a frame except the usual VAT and Post Office clearance fees.

Start with some core/stability work (on the half ball or physio ball) Then do: Single leg squats Walking Lunges Side Lunges Single leg calf raises Seated Calf Raises Seated Row (for lower back) Then some abs... Started with my programme this morning - can't walk now - but it's all good

Thanks for the advice guys - appreciate it...

Hi guys, wanting to buy a Nalini shirt from CWC but I'm in PE and no-one stocks them down here, Any idea on how small the sizing runs? I know it's a Euro fit so on the snug size. I have an anatomic XL which fits fine but take a large in First Ascent. Any help appreciated. Thanks

I may also need a service kit. Could you give me a price? looking for one for the Candy C pedals. Thanks

First Ascent Base Layer Had mine for 3 years now and never leave home without it in winter. Keeps you core temp up and doesnt make you too hot when the day gets warmer.

The wider the base, the higher the peak

:clap:

To give you some hope, I did Half IM and full IM in 2010 with basically no running. Longest run I did was 15km. IM is all about your goal - just finish or finish well. If you're just looking to finish, you'll be fine with your cycling as is, some swimming (to get use to the distance) and a few focused months of run training.

Could not also be that they're worn and need replacing? Just replaced my brakes as they were well worn (and screamed like a banshee) and the new ones don't make a sound...

There's a flicker of light at the end of the tunnel

GULP! How long did you train for doing 200km a week?

How doable is this race? I'm keen to enter and got some mates pushing me to join them but VERY wary of the distance... I'm doing the Garden Route 200 next month and am currently riding 3-4 times a week averaging about 150km a week. Am I gonna die if I tackle the TB?

Well if you happy to post I'm happy to pay!

mmmm, anyone got an old set lying around they want to sell? Don't feel like forking out for new cleats just for spinning?

It's going to be a top quality race to the same standards as Ironman. Also part of a Global series (like Ironman is). The guys at Triangle always put on a fantastic event!!
