The Road to Nice | My equipment choices for 2024 | Why I love my bike set up

Hey,
We're back with a video from Nice on my bike set up for 2024 and why I think it's the best available for the course. This video is supported by Argon18, Parcours & Classified.

I.M Nice World Championship's... Ready to take off Ruth 🚀

If I had the funds, I think I'd run a similar wheel/gearing set up. I love the thought of being able to run 1x with a decent size ring, but have the ability to bail out into a lower set of gears for the odd hill, which is the only time I really need to drop down as I don't mind grinding. And the speed of the Classified Hub shifting is something I hadn't considered before but it can only be a plus 👍🏻

All of that just went right over my head 😮

58 in the front :) the girl is power :) absolute elite level

That was really interesting. I can't see myself getting any fancy powershift hub any day soon, or any year soon either for that matter, but it sounds as if it might very well be the future as it seems to be all gains and no losses, except to the bank account of course 😄 I only got Di2 last year and am wildly impressed with the responsiveness and so far absolutely faultless shifting it provides. I have also embraced the Di2 wizardry and think the fully synchronised shifting is brilliant. Just shift up or down as you need and let the Di2 sort out the rest, including when to shift from the big to the small chainring, which can of course be customised to suit your preferences.

Agree on tire width. Went from 25 to 30 on my TT and its amazing. I cant imagine the disadvantage being too big. I guess if i'd watched your video before ordering i would have gone up to 32 😄

What crank length do you use? It cool that these days we short people can get appropriate crank lengths!

[@zaneclone]

Interesting- and scary- numbers on the crank/cassettes...
I'm running a 11-34 and 46/30.. but it's pretty hilly in N-Wales lol...

[@JesterMcPants]

Take a shot every time Ruth says Technology

[@12Ingrid345]

As shorty girl I feel offended about the wheels. What is your inside leg length?

[@Reastle1]

Why are you offended about the wheels?

[@Amanda_K_001]

Nice set up. What kind of bracket is your bike computer mounted on? Looking for a good mount for between my aero bars

[@Reastle1]

It’s from 76 projects - super adjustable so great for all TT bars

[@hollintg3811]

👍

[@ironman140.6]

What are you aiming for in Nice - top 20 / top 10?

[@discreetknight]

Will we see you in Hamburg 🎉
