Nice setup. How did the race go for you? What would you change on your setup after your experience? The weather was pretty damn good for early June in Kansas. He was a close second in his age group and he and 1st place…
Thumper I can only give a few tire reviews that I found and real life of using the tire at my end. When I did the Pony Express Gravel Dash on them quite a few folks had flats on the sharp flint there. I didn't and…
Hey you have to do you. The flint ridge aren't unknowns. At my end I just couldn't justify the time fixing a flat over riding a bullet proof tire but then here on the East Coast we don't get any flats so I am not use to…
Sounds like a course for the Kenda Flintridge Pros then. They are a heavier tire but bulletproof. That is what they were designed for or got their name. From the sharp flint of Kansas. Good luck everyone. Zman If the…
My son is racing in the 200 after chaperoning me on the 100 last year. My daughter in law and I are playing bike mechanic and sherpa for him this year. Will be curious to see how the north course rides as I have only…
June isn’t far away. …if the launch is during Unbound, all the reviewers might already have their test groupsets, under embargo. Could be... if it’s what everyone is expecting though, it’s not going to be the most…
There are already part numbers floating around out there and a leaked stock list with expected stock date in Europe of June 1, which by coincidence is the date of Unbound 200. It’s kinda believable, but even if the…
Actually it just got really quiet because we are all holding our breaths waiting for.... Shimano to release 12-speed DI2 GRX.
It seems to me roadies are very wary of new tech. It seemed like people were just waiting for something to happen to blame hookless rims. People who had zero facts had already made up their minds about what happened.…
Yeah, there is the Dry-Break’ ZENO Q-Connector . I actually just bought a pair for the new sponsor bike, thinking I would need them to be able to move the bars into the right position for travel (integrated cables) but…
Has anyone seen an image of the actual rim failure? …The most likely cause seems to be a 28mm tyre on a 25mm internal width hookless rim, with the green foam insert, possibly at too high a pressure, all adds up to the…

All the fear mongering from this incident is getting ridiculous. Vittoria already investigated the incident and said he hit a rock and broke the rim. This had nothing to do with hookless rims. In fact hooked rims are…
def top of chainstay for chain slap in rough stuff esp if you don’t run a clutch on rear mech. Then, starting from under BB, continuously forward on the underside of downtime for about a foot or so (look at what…
ntxgrvl, sorry, am just seeing this for reasons I don’t fully understand, wasn’t trying to diss by not replying.... yeah it went really well, lots better than I feared. The course was relatively short compared to my A…
You can add Enve to the list, though I’m pretty sure that price point is the opposite of what you’re looking for...
Winds were such Keegan prob needed others to ride with most of the way. Then there was a good attack point with a short climb into a brief technical section before the last pavement, and he apparently attacked there, as…
