  • Made a few changes to my Donohue road bike. Swapped DA7800 shifters for 5700. Swapped 7800 chainset for 4600 compact chainset (it gets worse and worse eh) clement strada tyres (not the shit tan wall ones) and a c15. Did a leisurely 40 miles today, after not having ridden the bike properly for over 2 years... so much fun.

  • My brother likes his, he goes all eroica as soon as he sniffs a vintage frame, whereas I like to drag them kicking and screaming into "contemporaryness...." Black tyres look a bit wrong on my Colnago, but the minimal voice in me tells me its the way to go. Probably banned by the Eroica cops as well...

  • They’re just a bit shit? Had a burst side wall on one pair and had the front delaminate/fail on the second pair I had both under 500 miles. They’re pegged as a tough winter tyre, they’re about as tough as a tissue.
