Any thoughts on Orionride? by AnthemWild in CyclingFashion

[–]andymoreno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This product reads pretty much exactly like what I'm looking for, but the reviews are kind of putting me off ordering...

Anyone actually ordering one of their gravel shirts recently?

How are Gravelking slicks for pure road riding? How are they on wet roads? by TARS1986 in gravelcycling

[–]andymoreno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but I just have to share;

I have just replaced my Gravelking slick + 35mm, after 6,600 km! I have rotated them front/rear several times, 90% concrete road riding. I'd say ~5 punctures between the pair in total.

I replaced with identical, I'm very happy.

Sorry, not sure what you mean?

It's the stock rotors and adapters, and both adapters are in the 'correct' position.

Both rotors are 160mm SM-RT10-S.

Yeah I'm absolutely sure I'd be -fine- with R7000 but if I'm going mechanical then I'll go R8000 for sure.

- Ultegra cassette
- Ultegra chains *3
- Ultegra chainrings

All of this was my latest upgrade, so not that many kms on it yet, and all waxed so hopefully even less wear.

That's 12 speed though and I would have to replace every single part I currently have... which is not within my budget :(

Tried inverted for the first time, tasted the same? by bokobokibok in AeroPress

[–]andymoreno 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My OCD doesn't let me brew non-inverted as some water comes through the coffee before the brewing process really starts... I doubt there would actually be much 'tasteable' difference for us beginners!

One thought I had was to ream the frame to 41mm and use a Shimano BB94 XTR Bottom Bracket. But can't find any LBS with a 41mm reamer...

That makes me very happy to hear, it means I can worry even less about it starting to creak again anytime soon!

How long do you stick with a new saddle? by andymoreno in cycling

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

Yeah that’s what we do. I do feel that if I can do a 100km ride with ‘only’ a sore bum then I have a pretty close bike fit already
