And no racing to test it on :whistling:

I see your location as Randburg. E2E no longer happening? 

 

Surely you are aware if there are two guys on bikes on the same stretch of road, a race is bound to erupt.

Not really sure why any non-pros really care. Do what makes you ride your bike, if sitting on the top tube gives you a fizz, go for it, if wearing extra long socks tickles you, go for it. If you like popping a manual down hill, go for it.

 

I just dont understand the whole vibe of people claiming a victory for kiddie and amateur safety. UCI outlawed doping years ago, but that still happens with youngsters.

I see you stopped short of mentioning short or God forbid secret socks .... Thankfully!

Full suspension ...

 

29 x 2,6 ...

 

Dropper DROPPED ...

 

Seated in this low position ....

 

 

Tucked more than super tucked ....

 

Odendaal type downhill ...

 

 

60 to 70km/h .... purely due to the tuck (spinning out at 40km/h.)

 

 

 

 

Moral of the story .... LOW road frames with long droppers for the win ...
