V12man Posted October 28, 2015 Share They quite expensive hey, most of the things I have from Birzman is cheaper (just comparing to them because they are said to be 'one of the more expensive brands'...not necessarily the best) - This was in connection with a spoke tension meter - should be on it's way tomorrow latest. One of the best tools I have are the brake clamshells from birzman - makes life a lot easier sometimes. RockCoach and hayleyearth 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockCoach Posted October 30, 2015 Share Come now guys, some of us like to cycle comfortably[emoji6] . I will probably change to some foamy shite, but need to take the bike on a nice long ride to experience what the shorter stem will be like. I had a pair foamies on but The Baviaans killed my hands, will see what the new stem's outcome is like.As long as your long ride has lots and lots of singletrack because that's where shorter stem shines. If the front feels twitchy or your position feels cramped, then your bars are too narrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the front feels twitchy or your position feels cramped, then your bars are too narrow.I don't do that much singletrack, mostly gravel roads. Did 25kms yesterday and I really enjoyed the shorter stem, climbing much better and overall feel seems better as well. RockCoach 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted October 30, 2015 Share A purchase that turned out not to be a purchase...got these Mavic MA40s laced to Ofmega hubs off the hub, but when it came time to pay, I was reminded of a pay-it-forward thingie from a couple of years back...cheers, Mint Sauce! Put on some Freedom Thickslicks and rode them for the first time yesterday. Love 'em! edit: Oh, and the Froome book was a purchase from a recent Exclusives sale. Got for R30, I think.

Did 30kays at Rosemary and it performed much better, should be fun at tomorrow's Trailseeker. BSG and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
