This is a great point. For example, I’ve ridden a Specialized Roubaix figuring it’d be more ‘comfortable’ but it felt like a squidgy town bike. So much give and flex built into it that it felt...

Love my CAAD

I bought a CAAD13 back in late Feb. of this year. It’s a 56, disc, with a near-full105 (drivetrain front end is cannondale but looks good, a sort of modern looking update to what the old Shimano 600...

My initial response is this. I switched a while back from 25s to 28s and noticed the ride quality was surprisingly different, almost sticky. At first what I mistook for sluggishness was just really...

East Rock and Hamden Hills

If you’ve got a couple hours and want to find some cool riding, I recommend going up East Rock then hitting the Ridge/New Road/QU/Mt. Carmel area and back. Challenging, fast, not too trafficky, and...

Thanks for the insight. I definitely (wrongly) assumed that eTap and Di2 were priced about the same across their groupset hierarchies. ‘Assuming we can actually find bikes’ right now is so true. I...

Just remember to bring a little extra fuel to stumble into when you get hungry and double check for a few fountains or easy stops for bottle fills. Enjoy!

I rode 30 miles today. Glad to be out...

Specialized Pricing?

Just looked online (Specialized website) at the Roubaix Expert (Ultegra Di2, 2021, $5000 USD) and the Roubaix Comp (SRAM Rival eTap AXS, 2022, $5000 USD). I know there are supply and pricing issues...

Conti Gatorskin Question

How much do you love your Continental Gatorskin tires? Any wild stories or mileage milestones? Anyone switch from them to something better?

Success?

Just swapped to 28mm from 25s. Left in the smaller tubes (18-23) so as to avoid opening a brand new four pack of tubes meant for 25-32 in case the tires didn’t fit. 5 mile test ride and so far, so...

Thanks for that info. The 1.5mm addition all around estimate is something I hope holds true. If I end up with a true +3 difference all around I might be pushing it. Not much clearance on these...

First post! I have a 1992 Raleigh Technium with Mavic Open 4 CD hoops. I currently run 700x25 and want to try 28s. I know people have said you can run 28s on them, but I’m concerned about tire...
