• So not riding it due to the weather and it getting dirty?
    Would mudguards fitted allow the clearance with the tyres if you had them fitted?

  • Yep that.. and I've spent about 2.5hrs on it. I'm still trying to work out if I like the saddle or not.

    New bike, new position, new saddle, new shoes. I'd rather do a few shorter rides that don't involve hotels and trains before committing to riding this.

    Let's be clear, most people don't try and do a 400k as their shakedown ride, especially not on a brand new setup. I did it once with a 600k before TCR but at least I'd had a bike fit and I'd been riding similar setup for the months leading up to it.

  • Do you not have any bike fit data to help with setup, I know it sounds a lot but really does help to get things dialled in quicker etc.
