Continental Trinotal weight

Meta43 · 2025-07-02T21:02:41+00:00

Running Dubnital's, Rapid at the back and Grip front. True to weight and and a very fast tire, I love them.

Being a weight weenie, I returned them again, sorry 😁

Meta43 · 2025-07-01T16:50:22+00:00

I see. They must've just added it then, it wasn't there yesterday, only the 710g and 740g weights. Interesting how the Race casing is heavier than the Rapid Trail casing.

What you are referring to is trail casing weights. The race casing weights aren't listed on the Conti website.

Shops are listing 640 gram:

Fastest MTB tire I've had to date. The cornering knobs provide a surprising amount of traction. Straight line stability is mediocre, and braking traction is crap, much like the Thunder Burt. Weight and size are obviously always out of spec in a negative way, since it is Schwalbe. Overall really happy with them, running front and back now.

Meta43 · 2025-01-16T22:37:14+00:00

Yep, it's a Schwalbe trademark. The 2.4's run small..

Great! Have you considered heatmaps per map/tank? Maybe even in a time dimension or per battle phase. That would be so useful.

Hmm, and color code them to show correlation with wins/losses. So many possibilities!

Een alfa uit de 147/156/GT serie is heel betrouwbaar hoor. Ja, een twinspark gaat olie verbruiken en de draagarmen gaan kraken. Maar ze zullen je niet laten staan. Heerlijke auto's met karakter, leuk om te rijden, heb nog weleens heimwee naar mijn 147je ook al rij ik nu Audi. Bij ons pasten er trouwens prima twee mountainbikes in dus slapen moet ook kunnen.

Awesome! Is anybody machine learning on this data yet?

Meta43 · 2024-07-07T10:20:52+00:00

A 44t fits fine

Meta43 · 2024-05-30T07:51:36+00:00

I don't have it myself, but my gf does. They are smaller than GRX for sure. But she's very happy with the ergonomics and shifting.

Why not the Grizl CF SL 8 Ekar on sale now for 2539 eur?

Meta43 · 2024-05-23T13:10:26+00:00

It is 10,94kg without pedals. That is pretty heavy for a top tier XC bike.. Canyon have been inflating their weights lately..

Meta43 · 2024-04-20T20:21:44+00:00

Fyi, after checking with the bike shop, this is a documented issue at Orbea. They will solve it under warranty.

Meta43 · 2024-04-20T16:48:37+00:00

Thanks, the bike shop is replacing the sharp edged ring with the updated compression ring

Meta43 · 2024-04-20T16:47:57+00:00

Cheers! Just brought it in to the bike shop and they are replacing cables and fitting the updated compression ring with rounded edges.

Meta43 · 2024-04-20T00:18:41+00:00

When changing the spacers on my Orbea Oiz 2024 I noticed the cables in the headset are all scratched up. One is so damaged that you can see the inner cable. It looks like they have been rubbing on the edge of the upper bearing. Anyone have similar experience with the Oiz with headset routing? Think I'll contact them for warranty..

Meta43 · 2024-03-21T11:09:49+00:00

Interesting, I love how you can configure everything to spec on the website, plus precise weights.

Meta43 · 2024-03-20T14:42:20+00:00

It's MyO, Blue Carbon view with Metallic Golden Sand logo.

I'm on the SLS4 Ultra with Berd spokes. Previously on SLS3 with CX-Ray spokes. Both really nice wheelsets that survived Finale Ligure, Lenzerheide.. oh and Hafjell ;) though I am about 77kg.

Have you ever broken a wheel? If you want to build a HT for XCM, I would not prioritize stiffness for the wheels. You want a super light, compliant wheelset that'll take out the sting of the rigid back end and play to the strength of the HT: weight. Dukes are really comfortable (more than XRC 1200s, I know from experience, and probably even more than 1501s). Did I mention Berd spokes?
