    Phil, the KOM for Torrey Pines down in San Diego maybe perfect for that bike. Average gradient 5%, someone sniped the KOM off of you by 3 seconds putting you in second place but I think this bike would be perfect for that climb.

      $$$$$$$$$ - Phil runs what he gets paid to run. Remember, shortly ago he had a power meter that used bags of water for a zero offset. Then he had SRAM for a minute, and now it's on to the next step.
      I don't blame him one bit. These videos aren't free to make and living isn't free.

      Possibly because the industry can't build reliable Carbon clincher rims so they're pushing tubeless that run lower pressures and don't melt on a long descent. Put the brake on the hub and you solve a bunch of issues.... That's my guess.....
