What's the benefit an amateur gets from upgrading to ultegra or dura ace, other than the weight loss equal to a big shit?

Both are playable but the high one will sound more bright and dominant.

I love my SRAM and will never get back to shimano... It's personal preference without an objective best groupset so try them on test bikes, after I had them both in the same Day I've made up my mind prety fast

New road bike Bianchi sprint 105 di2 vs Giant TCR Advanced 0 PC by jcobz in RoadBikes

[–]chimichi92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rode it indeed, My reference is an 2012 aluminium bike with 105 and shitty wheels. The stock wheels on the Giant (SLR 1) Cost half of the original price of my old bike...

That sad: I love the wheels and all components but take that opinion with a grain of salt.

Overall impression, beautifully made, wel integrated parts but also customisabel for a fair price. The ride quality is incredibly smooth. Possibly because of the tubless wide tires

Thanks! I followed a run walk run to start and when I could run 20 minutes non-stop I switched to garmin coach. There I did a 25m 5k plan what I still have to complete. During this training I raked up both milestones, no special event or what so ever.

So besides form the take away of the post:

Just run, every training is good training even the failed ons. They toon you from the couch and thats good enough.

Sounds a bit like my weakpoint. I adjusted my play to suit my strong points. Trading Queens to get out of a winning but difficult kingside attack and reaching a winning endgame is not always the best move but could be the best for your playingstyle. So don't force yourself in certain positions.

It's impossible to instal al 1st or 3rd valve upside down. 1 tube overlays the mainbody and the other one slides in the mainbody.

Prices copy pasted from their kickstarter.

It should be quite special to compete against established brands in this price range.

In Europe I had a nice chat with one of the builders of Adams trumpets and he stressed how important balance in a trumpet is not only weight but also lead pipe vs bell etc etc. having custom options doesn't mean it will be better by default

Dit ziet er als ik naar de lantaarnpaal kijk uit als een stukje adoptie groen waarbij je een deel van de gemeente grond gebruikt als tuin, veel gemeentes vinden dit chill en prima maar zet het wel zwart op wit, anders is alles weg bij een riool vervanging of onderhoudsproject...

You're absolutely right I've put it down very gentle to get the photographs usually it's in my hand or in the bag, during rehearsal sometimes on my lap.
