2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted October 19, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 19, 2014 Magnificent effort going out to race I that. Forgot that was on today as I sat sniffing with my hopefully one and only winter man cold watching the World Cup cyclo cross in Valkenburg where it was short sleeve weather ! Chapeau to anyone who rode today, sounds like Alan was on a belter, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavieB Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Well done When its really muddy and wet do you use different tyres than when it is dry? From my perspective using different legs and lungs would probably make more of a difference. In theory it would be a yes but at our level not really an issue. Evidence of more disc brakes on the podium at Valkenburg, but one of the cited reasons for the pros not changing over is that the teams turn up for the races with an unseemly amount of different wheelsets and tyre combos, the majority of which will still be rigged for cantis so the cost of changing has to be taken into account. Trek must be fuming that Nys still runs on canti's as it is the manufacturers who really want the change in order to sell even more shiny stuff to us mere mamils.

Committee Alan McLean Posted October 20, 2014 Author Committee Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 "In theory it would be a yes but at our level not really an issue." Correct. It would be be nice to run tubeless to allow lower pressures without risk of pinch flats. The boring reality is that the fit riders can win on anything. I have one set of tyres which are round and have some knobbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
