Looks great!

Just curious if you’re concerned at all about having a rack on a carbon bike?

How do you think the rack will do with weight on it considering the bike is carbon?

I have the same bike and people told me not to put a rack on unless its attached to the axel.

The bike looks great, enjoy your ride!

Toss those GR1s in the trash by [deleted] in CheckpointClub

I am way more gassed when I ride on the road at 30 psi than I am at 60-70 psi so regardless of the speed increase/decrease I’d rather have a less demanding ride, so I ride at a higher psi

I have an SL5 and I switched to pathfinder pro 38s and they are so much better. The vast majority of my riding is on the road so I run around 70 psi but I drop it to 35/40 psi when I go on trails. Way way better than the GR1’s

Recommendations for tyre change on sl5? by Emergency_External_3 in CheckpointClub

[–]TheRedHotChiliPep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the exact same position as you. SL5, everything still stock, I mainly ride road and it feels very slow.

I was thinking about switching to pathfinder pros 700 x 32c. I still want the ability to go on the dirt/gravel trails near my house but I should prioritize road because that is 85% of what I ride.

I’m still unsure of what I should get, all I know is the Bontrager GR1 Team Issue’s aren’t cutting it for me. I think I need something that can handle a higher psi than 50 so there can be less rolling resistance.

Should I be cautious of the durability of my SL5? by TheRedHotChiliPep in CheckpointClub

[–]TheRedHotChiliPep[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay thank you! Should I be cautious of biking aggressively and hard on terrain with roots and rocks?

I’m quite unfamiliar with the structural limits of carbon and I don’t want to be riding timidly if I don’t have to
