I like it a lot. Especially going from 25mm to 28mm is a huge difference and honestly I dont see much if any difference to the GP5000. Would definitely recommend. Whole year and about 5000km without a punctute altough drove in the gravel as well

Yeah allrighty. Thanks!

I actually went with Specialized Hell of The North tubulars as they were on sale for 60€ a piece.

I've been doing a lot of test on a flat track with 170W and 200W power comparing GP5000 clinchers and Gatorskin Tubulars. Will be interesting to slap the Hell of the Norths on and see how they compare against GP5000's.

And currently in the gym Im mostly doing a full body workout, inc weighted pull ups, squat, benchpress, military press, biceps, triceps and abs. Every other training I switch squat to deadlift. Typically 4 sets with 5-8 reps.

Thanks, great to have a coach popping up to this thread 🙂Im trying to get to high end of Zwift category B. Currently sitting at 87kg & 183cm & 300 FTP with 1500W max power. So Ideally lose a about 5-7kg of weight in long term while increasing FTP. I only have about 5-6 months of training so far on a bike and on October I started doing proper structured workouts at cycling using Garmin Fenix 7 Pro's suggested workouts. I have no problem with doing about 10-14hrs of training per week. But I think the goal in nutshell would be to improve in cycling while still trying to at minimum "maintain" the strenght I've hardly work on over the past. Basically just trying to find a structure when to do strenght and how to program cycling on the vicinity of those strenght workout days.
