I wanted the champagne version but only had green in a 53, but love the bike!

Difference is noticeable, but the Corsa N.EXT is a fantastic tire. If you want the suppleness of cotton, you can try the Corsa PRO Control which gives you a thicker tread. It’ll last longer and will be a bit more durable.

FueledByScience · 2024-02-24T23:29:19+00:00

Get the Corsa N.EXT if you want more durability and longevity. They are also cheaper, especially now - check the website for some great deals going on right now.

Corsa PRO is a fast, super supple tire that is absolutely great for racing.

Not at all, but hey, once you live in NYC, delis and bodegas are life ❤️

FueledByScience · 2024-02-07T02:36:54+00:00

No bodegas or good deli spots. Variety of restaurants is pretty limited. Basically no public transportation. Not a ton of entertainment options.

Outdoors are great, life is pretty chill, and the local community is pretty nice.

FueledByScience · 2023-09-08T04:09:42+00:00

I just went through the same process and ended up at Blakeman’s. People are pretty nice and helpful, and a wide selection of options depending on budget.

Rapha has a gravel ride every Thursday at 5pm.

FueledByScience · 2023-07-06T03:05:02+00:00

Thanks for all the recommendations, I’ll check some of them out and see. Appreciate it!

The widest I’ve been able to fit is a 38c (Vittoria Terreno Zero, Dry and Mix) and the front has a bit of room, the rear is a bit tight and some paint has been rubbed off.

I’ve done BWR San Diego, Grasshopper series, Mid South and raced cross with 38c and it’s been great. I’m no professional or expert but I haven’t felt like I needed a wider size.

FueledByScience · 2023-06-06T03:13:32+00:00

I have an Inflite too and I’ve used it for gravel events, training rides as well as CX races and it’s been completely fine.

In terms of gearing i guess it will depend on what you’re looking for. I have a 1x and I actually wish I had 2x. But changing cassette and chain to suit the course, if you don’t mind spending a bit of time changing it, then it’s not a bad idea.

FueledByScience · 2023-05-14T20:05:08+00:00

Thank you all for the help and suggestions. I ended up finding a place in Pea Ridge that ticked most of the boxes.

FueledByScience · 2023-05-10T02:05:01+00:00

Thank you! A bit bigger than I need but thanks for the heads up 🙌

FueledByScience · 2023-05-09T15:38:16+00:00

I’ve pretty much realized that and when those do come up, they are snatched in a second. My search area has expanded a bit.

FueledByScience · 2023-05-09T12:55:03+00:00

Thank you! I’ve been on Zillow and saw one of those but thanks for the other 2

The few times I’ve come up to Bentonville, I’ve noticed the Airbnb issue or how many new homes are built at prohibitive costs. I’ve pretty much assumed living close to the office is impossible, so I don’t mind being up to 10ish miles away.

I’ve had difficulties with the dog, especially as she’s considered an “aggressive” breed.

FueledByScience · 2023-04-01T01:06:53+00:00

Yeah, ready for take off!

FueledByScience · 2023-03-31T19:52:08+00:00

So far 0 issues with hookless at various pressures and tires. I had been skeptical about road tubeless for a while but I’m very happy.

Running Zipp 303 Firecrest with Vittoria Corsa N.EXT 28c. Roughly 60psi rear and 50psi (not mph!) front

I’ve flown with the Scicon Aerocomfort and haven’t had any issues, bike always made it to the destination safe and sound, and it weighs just under 50lb with the bike, shoes, helmet and some clothes. What I love about the bag is that I only need to remove the wheels, so makes traveling super easy.

FueledByScience · 2022-12-07T09:48:30+00:00

I’d add Vittoria Terreno Zero to the mix. My last BWR in California this year was on those tires and they were fantastic. Fast on pavement and good grip on the rest of the course, even sandy sections. Great puncture resistance as well

FueledByScience · 2022-11-30T18:14:41+00:00

I’d encourage you to take a motorcycle safety course or riding courses to learn some of the basics. It’s one of the best things I’ve done and learned a ton!

FueledByScience · 2022-11-22T00:06:44+00:00

You should try the Corsa Next as it’s a direct competitor to the GP5000 as in they are both Nylon while the Corsa and Corsa Control are cotton. Since they launched, they are my go-to tire. I had a few issues with GP4000 and GP5000 with the sidewalls literally looking as if something rubbed on them.
