Really good vid that was, enjoyed that. Well made and good angles/editing. Some dam good riding going on too. I need that HD, if you find somewhere to host it.
I think if you need a stronger rim it's worth the extra weight especially as you don't need to worry about it after extra gap. I doubt you'll feel the difference with just changing the rim, but if you change other bits it'll all add up and you'll notice it.
Yer what a legend, I remember that video when it come out, such a good video. Didn't have a clue he was at that meal we went to though, I would have touched him if I knew.
I remember about 6 years ago when they where on Megamos, the aluminium rotors worked well, but I heard from riders using them that they wore down quite quickly. No idea what pads where used though.
There is another British round there this year. They are pretty nasty rocks in the wet but it you pick your edges ok then it's fine most of the time, just don't go skidding down on your front wheel
That was such a beasty video, really liked that and the the quality being so good made such a difference especially as I watched it on a HD screen. Haha at the end when the guy gets in the way and he goes "putttoooon" basically f**k off.
Anybody up for a ride somewhere. Liverpool, Southport, Maghull, Ormskirk, Preston, Morecombe? If the weather is ok. From 5/5:30 onwards? Sunset is at 20:02 so got a few hours of light. Phil.
