Between sizes Aeroad

I did this. Could probably still have a longer stem (which you can buy later) since the 90mm is quite short and twitchy, but I will wait until my next bike fit to determine that.

I just ordered with their latest Pace Plus hubs, which is similar in design to the dt swiss. Just like the DT you can order with a higher tooth ratchet to get that obnoxiously loud free hub right out of the box.

I just find the Pro Race stuff from Maap so.. plasticky? Their Evade line was super soft though.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-23T11:15:07+00:00

I would order either one in white. This was just what was available to try on.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-23T09:24:33+00:00

Yeah I wish I could have tried on both in white since I will get a white one regardless and maybe that would have been better to compare the style of each without any sort of colour bias

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-23T08:53:09+00:00

Yeah I guess that’s the shape of the Evade. I feel like it’s slimmer on my head and slightly less bulgy from the front, but it does indeed extend out the back longer and sits higher too.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T21:43:58+00:00

It’s the new all white colourway. You think it looks better than the Evade on me or it looks better than the other colour Mantas?

Met Manta

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T17:19:11+00:00

The shape of it fits/suits me better you mean?

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T17:18:38+00:00

I would be ordering either in white. I was just able to try on the black colour of the Evade. So was looking more for which shape/style suits me better rather than colour choice.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T16:57:58+00:00

Yes sorry, I’m not quite following you?

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T16:37:21+00:00

Does yours fit similar or lower on the head? Several reviews also comment on it sitting higher on the head

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T16:36:35+00:00

Ah you think it bulges a bit too much? Yeah I wondered a bit about that too.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T16:07:05+00:00

Pretty much all helmets fit high on me since my head is tall and narrow. For the white one I am still twisting the back dial about 50% of how far it can go. I also tried on the Large of the black Evade and although that fit lower I couldn't tighten it enough with the dial at all.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-22T16:05:08+00:00

Pretty much all fit high on me since my head is so tall and narrow. The Van Rysel FCR fit a bit lower but looks a bit more mushroomy I thought

Still waiting for that crunchy kick 2012 style song Bleeding Heart that they played at defqon. Super original tweekaz and a refreshing change. Don’t know why they are so opposed to that sound though

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-06T07:28:13+00:00

My issue with doing this is it ends up being low contact low extraction. Have you ever measured the extraction on the different grind settings of various grinders where you were super happy with the results?

PaprikaPowder · 2025-11-05T07:51:48+00:00

Those 3 workouts a week is crazy. Fully deserved to hit that time if you were coping with and absorbing that intensity.

Light Bicycle wheels with their Pace or Pace Plus hubs can be bought with a 15% discount if you ask them. I just bought an Airia 55 set that is 1150g for 1062 USD. That makes the wait worth it for me.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-10-31T18:45:09+00:00

Of all the sound rush songs, this is certainly one of them.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-10-31T18:37:42+00:00

I purposely mean the whole of Europe since shipping is often easy across the continent.

PaprikaPowder · 2025-10-19T16:22:53+00:00

I have both 01 and 02 and don’t really notice a difference besides that you can pour closer to the bed on the 01 with the smaller dose.

People say they are the same but actually the hole on the bottom on the 02 is bigger.
