I bought then at bicicleta https://bicicletta.cc/products/steilacoom
Yeah I could have lower the pressure for sure. My ride was really in the middle of nowhere and I don't have that much experience with this setup so I didn't want to have a failure on a tire... Even at these "higher"…

A few words to give feedback on my Compass Steilacoom 38c. I chose the standard casing cause I'm 205lbs and not racing. They are 39.6mm on my dtswiss CR1600 dicut wheelset (inner width 22mm), mounted tubeless. I'm…
Take a look at dtswiss cr1600. Less trendy with only 22mm inner width. 377 euro on bike component (de).

Our trip was cancelled because of Covid-19, as my Paris-Ancaster race in April... See you next year Vermont! Hopefully...

Buying wheels or wheel parts in my area is pretty expensive. I found great deals over the years on german websites (bike-discount, bike-components etc) mainly for DTSWISS. I have an ER1400 wheelset (dt240 stealth black…

1+ for Conti GP5000 tubeless. I have experience with 38c (GK) and 40c (Refuse) slick tires. I bought contis for a week of road riding with two friends. We ended up doing maybe 20% of gravel riding (really hard and fast…
Wow! Thanks Guys! It seems like 5 days won't be enough!
Thanks Flydyl. We will make a move soon for reservation... Not sure yet what we'll end-up booking
I have merino/neopren socks (expensive) to keep my feet warm in damp or cold weather. You might get wet a bit but you stay warm
Hi Guys! I want to register for Paris Ancaster with a friend. There's spot left in wave 4 and VIP. Since it will be our first time there, we're thinking going vip for late showing, parking spot and not having to ride in…

Hi Guys! I'll probably be in Vermont first week of june for a 5 days stay with a friend. We want to do some mix surface riding (ideally more gravel than road) and I would like to do one day of mtb at Perry Hill in…

I tried my bike around the block with the GPs so not a proper ride but I was surprise how comfy/compliant they are. They were around 65 psi. Boy my bike was handling quicker than in my memory (but I've been riding 4.5"…
