    You bought a bike you don't need in the wrong colour. You got it bad son.

      Same, but wrong size. Worse, I can only work on it when my partner is out of the house, we live in a first floor flat and there's only so many places I can hide a new purchase. I have a titanium frame hidden in the boiler cupboard, and a carbon frame I bought from AliExpress under the bath behind a wooden panel - also with a pair of carbon wheels I bough at the same time. I'm thinking of hiring a lockup somewhere to put everything.

    Had my Canyon SL 9.0 for 10 years, it’s like triggers broom in terms of what is left (frame, seat post), but it’s been a great bike for sure. Having also had a canyon TT bike and also a Grail if I ride my bike again with a view to something new I’d go Canyon again.

    Nice bike, rather than change the bars so you can put light etc on easily, have a look at the light that goes on Garmin mount between mount and Garmin. I don't have one but considering getting one myself

    Gutted you are going to paint it. My first thought was ‘that red is lush’. Then again, I am probably as much a sucker for red as you are for blue…

    I mean... is it really cheaper to buy a new bike instead of chewing throughout expensive components on existing one?
    How many km of rides and trios of chain&cassette&cranks could you buy for a price of a new bike?

    • @TriathlonDan
      @TriathlonDan  22 дні тому +1

      Probably not 😂 it’s more the gearing range I have on the race bike vs training bike and I like to know that the race bike has relatively new components, no getting to and event and a new chain slipping on worn chainrings etc

    Ha ha UR a canyon fan boi for sure. I don’t own one but I like the brand so fair enough. Don’t tell Liz the price 😂 sounds like my life. I was so close to buying another bike last week for Randonneuring but i scores a 165mm crank set for my gravel bike and came a cost a set of silica titanium bottle cages and bought them so I’m gloving to throw my GP 5000 AS on my gravel bike and go with that.

      @@TriathlonDan definitely £20 for the pair I believe but i might have dropped a zero some where in the equation. I can’t wait to get them on, and see what this bike feel like with road tires. Some wise man once said make winter gravel road bikes great again I believe was your words.
