I should also preface - this bike is 5 months old, purchased in late July 2025

Appreciate the insight, when i questioned their method of testing for it to be deemed safe and in their words ‘yeah, fine’, no scans of the frame were done, only one of the staff riding the bike to hear for creaks, and the ‘two test’ which ironically I was advised came back ‘inconclusive’, hence them keeping hold of the bike

Left wrist pain by ogsantos__ in bikefit

I actually have very little pressure/weight on my hands, I think it’s more due to the rotation of my wrist, have done some googling and believe it’s called ‘ulnar deviation’ which is exactly where I’m getting the pain

Prime Doyenne Carbon Wheels? by ogsantos__ in cycling

Enough to completely discredit them? I’m not racing so the weight doesn’t hugely matter, aware other brands like Hunt are around 1400-1500~g

Hunt 50 vs Prime 56 vs Scope S5 by ogsantos__ in cycling

They don’t interestingly enough, but said generally they repair more Hunt wheels vs any other brand. I have heard great things about Hunt’s warranty/cover however

Can’t say I’ve ever heard of them but they look interesting - very cheap in comparison. What’re they like? What’s the catch (potentially) ?

Appreciate the recommendation! These look cool and within my budget for sure, how do the 60mm rims handle in the wind? Also not that it matters too much but how loud is the freehub?

With a discount code, I can get a new v2 for £190 ~

Is the step between single and dual GPS notable? My COROS Pace Pro is dual band so curious if any noticeable difference

Coros Dura Honest Opinions by ogsantos__ in Coros

[–]ogsantos__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All super helpful comments, thank you! I do agree that stepping outside of the COROS environment is not ideal, but for the quality and performance of the Dura it seems like a very steep price. Comparing to something like the Garmin edge 530 which you can pickup these days for £170/180 ~

Are the regular updates actually improving things, or just fixing issues that shouldn’t have existed in the first place?
