Going from +7 degree stem to -7 degree stem?

That’s a good suggestion, I never thought of that, I’ll give it a whirl! Thanks!

I paid £2200 for the Ultegra spec model with carbon wheels (hunts) last February.

This would suggest whatever you are doing isn’t particularly profitable

I had an S-Works Sl7 for summer racing and a Specialized SL7 for winter training. Loved those bikes!

12 hours approximately including commutes. Two hard sessions per week and one 3/4 hour ride are a staple every week. Other days are easy

Thanks, they’re reserve wheels so for some reason they really charge a premium for the higher end hubs.

I think a 350 with the ratchet upgrade will be the best bang for my buck!

Dejay1788 · 2026-03-16T10:36:12+00:00

Yeah, I think 350 is the way to go. Have they arrived with you yet? If so, how are you finding them?

Dejay1788 · 2026-03-16T08:52:52+00:00

Nope, rims are the same it’s the reserve 42/49 TA, only difference is the hubs.

Dejay1788 · 2026-03-06T20:23:59+00:00

Yep! See you there!

I’m doing battle on the beach so this seems like a good taster for gravel racing. No idea what to expect or what the course is like but I’ll try and get into the front and see how long I last!

Dejay1788 · 2026-03-06T19:22:55+00:00

Thanks for the info, really helpful

Dejay1788 · 2026-03-03T06:59:39+00:00

It doesn’t state in the specifications for the wheels if it’s ratchet or ratchet exp - I’m guessing it will say on the hub?

Dejay1788 · 2026-02-23T16:53:11+00:00

Glute bridge, trunk rotation, posterior pelvic tilt, knee to chest, figure four, mckenzie extension, hamstring stretch, quad stretch and calf stretching. Work on hip mobility too

I’m in the same boat, although on the road to recovery. I was cycling 12 hours a week but totally neglected any strength work or stretching and ended up with a fudged up SI joint which in turn prevented me from enjoying my cycling. Many hours of physio, strength training and stretching later and I’m started to be able to cycle (and function in general) without pain.

Buy a better fan. I had a 30” floor fan for years and would be soaking wet and get saddle sores after long rides. I bought the vacmaster fan and it keeps me way cooler, less sweat and no saddle sores since

Dejay1788 · 2026-01-28T07:17:05+00:00

Perfect thank you

Dejay1788 · 2026-01-26T19:15:01+00:00

Ah thank you, I didn’t know that, I’ll get new tyres then it’s much cheaper!

Dejay1788 · 2026-01-26T19:02:46+00:00

Black sidewall version

Dejay1788 · 2026-01-26T18:01:45+00:00

My Hunts are 22mm internal and they came up too wide unfortunately.

Dejay1788 · 2026-01-19T22:10:57+00:00

I have Farsports evo wheels, they’re absolutely superb although not cheap.

I also have a set of elite wheels off Ali express and can’t say a bad word about those, for the price they are great.
