  1. Labeled Knuckleheads by Chris Horner. my thoughts exactly.
  2. They are trying to push a narrative. the first one created massive conflict in the Vizma team. I dont put stock in these docs... after a few episodes of the first season I didnt bother watching further. I take my sport without a side of soap opera, thank you.
  3. interesting tactics from Bora today. Didnt make much sense. massive energy for 6 seconds at the top? I thinks they are scrambling a bit. this weekend will be interesting
  4. POWER!! haha
  5. for Pedersen it did go wrong spectacularly.
  6. oh wow! I didnt even notice that!
  7. My wife thought something broke the way I was screaming in that sprint. From the 1k mark it felt like vintage Cavendish the way he thread the needle. It was beautiful.
  8. I donno, maybe 5-6k? I bought my boy's titan 24" for 3.5k. but your bike has much better components. Maybe, check out similar specced bikes on the hub what its priced at.
  9. i have momsen R355 gravelbike, and my kids each have a titan hardtail (to get them into the sport). the momsen is on a whole different level. amazing bike. the titans, for what i paid for them are excellent. bit on the heavy side, the front shocks are springloaded so tend to be on the stiff side. But yeah, great bikes.
  10. Chainrings, cassette and chain (all Ultegra parts) included? Your LBS was very kind to you. Well done. Enjoy many smooth miles!
  11. Fantastic service from Garmin last week. Sent in my 530. They offered upgrade to 540 at 1/4 of retail price to replace. they even sent back the string and cover I had on the 530 when I sent them in. Unit landed today. very chuffed
  12. wahoo v1 doesnt have proper navigation with turn by turn and route correction (as far as I remember). The same as what was with the Garmin 520. The 520 plus brought in proper navigation which made it superior to the wahoo v1. and then the 530 came. I owned both the 520 plus and 530. Id stick with them. My 530 gave up the ghost so Garmin upgraded me (out of warrantee) to the 540 at a 1/4 of the price of retail. So you have great customer service as well.
  13. i bought the sworks c-gr cheaply, and it works well. not suspension. just taking the shock out of the knocks. But the stem is another animal all together. Love it. its one of those products that simply says what it does and does what it says. Its expensive for a stem though, but worth it.
  14. Received my Redshift stem through Amazon on Friday. what a joy! Our gravel roads here are horrible. The difference is immediately noticeable.
  15. exactly. I rode 53/39 with 11/28 in Cape Town no problem. But if you are in the lowveld Id go with a compact. My gravelbike runs 50/34 with a 11/40 cassette. what works best for you where you live and what type of hills/climbs you ride, weight and fitness will determine what you need.
