(Only saw your post just now, apologies. But hopefully this will be of use to someone else.) Moscow and its entire surrounding area is a dense urban agglomeration with a severe lack of proper non-tarmac roads and you…
My X-Trail came with SRAM Centerline 160 mm rotors and stock Shimano resin pads. Are these rotors compatible with metal braking pads like L04C?
I would seriously advise against getting an aluminium fork; if you really do not want to invest in a carbon one get a steel fork instead. Steel and carbon absorb micro vibrations well; you might not notice this at a…

Darn nice but 6-bolt and I am not in the US…

I really like my DT Swiss R24 Spline db, you can find them well below €300 these days since DT Swiss are selling a new range now. Sure they are 1.7 kg or so for the wheelset, but they roll great, and my other set has…
Apologies for the slow response here, I have the 700×40C Marathon Plus Tour on my hybrid and while they are fast, ljsmith is correct: they are very harsh on uneven surfaces. Perfectly fine grip in the woods or on the…
I wouldn't try fitting anything wider than 38mm rear, the clearance just isn't there.
The weight difference is less than 100 g if I recall correctly. Pro: 4700 STI levers are the same feel as Ultegra/Dura-Ace; some prefer this over 105. Con: (probably negligible) 4700's rear derailleur is incompatible…
The complete 105 group-set is just €450-500 in Germany (VAT excluded). I would assume it is even cheaper in the USA? You guys seem to have way lower prices compared to Europe and Japan (though admittedly the latter is…
Oh, thanks for the warning, I'll add some graphite grease next time I remove the wheel… Re: thru axle, do you mean the handle getting blocked by the plastic bit? I solved that by screwing it a bit further in, I think.…
The mudguards fit well in the end: Also featuring the Topeak Road Morph G pump and the Sigma ROX 11.0 with its combo sensor. Now I need to find a decent plastic bottle holder thing, most stuff sold in shops around here…
Update: thanks to FestiveNoodle and some spare bolts and screws the mudguards are now in place! Used a spare screw from my computer parts box for the seatstay bridge.
Many thanks! I have the same colour scheme as yours by the way, but the Ultegra mix variant (€3600 for full Ultegra was a bit too much for me). They bundled it with DT Swiss R24 Spline DB wheels that are tubeless ready,…
FestiveNoodle, oh, could you kindly explain which bolts go where?
Newface here with an X-Trail Carbon Ultegra mix. I ordered mine with the optional mudguard kit but it came without instructions and to make matters worse, it seems like the screw that goes into the stay bridge is way…
