@@Buzzalong.cycling can u tell me how didu go in TCR 10 th edition?

@@TazLawrie TCR 10 was great, really happy with my bike setup, it performed really well

@@Buzzalong.cycling will we see you in 11th edition?

Thanks you 🙌🚲

@Gias1 0 seconds ago We don't know what Gereon is carying. 😉

@@Gias1 you can see it at the dotwacher bikes of TCR ;) same setup

thanks for the tip :)

Yes, osuper useful 🙌

Cannot recommend. Coming of an ultra right know it was impossible to get new spare tubes and having the TPU with no means of fixing it is a ticking time bomb. Butyl can be fixed anywhere in the world (even yourself). It's good for as long you stay in countries you know your way around. Added problem. I had Schwalbe aerothan, valve broke after 250km. Then replaced with Tubolito, lastet only 80km (probably my fault).

Tpu are a lottery even new. Quality control is poor from all countries and finding a puncture to patch at side of road....nope

Yes, I did not have a good experience with TPU I prefer to carry more reliable tubes and compromise in this regard on weight because I can patch them easy, specially if I am cycling in remote areas gives me piece of mind

Or latex tube

Ps you can patch latex tubes to I mess around with one that had 11 patches before I replaced it

Thanks you 🙌

Wow, thanks!🙌🚲

Thank you 🙌

Thanks you 🙌

It is an impressively light setup, but you do also need to add the weight of the cargo vest and food etc carried in it, maybe another 2kg or so. Could be a lot more if also using the bladder.

Thanks you 🙌

Yes 🙌

Thank you 🙌🚲

Thank you 🙌

Yes, you can use the Ass Saver wing wing 2, it does similar job to midguards and it is super light

How was TCR? Same size as my trainers, I have nike running shoes in size 41 and got the Quoc Gran Tourer XC in size 41 also

@@Buzzalong.cycling thanks alot; I stoped race at day 5 at 1250Km; my partner turned someone different cant stand him anymore. My neck developed shermes neck syndrome recently also tuined my mood; I ll go solo TCR NO:11 with better bike fit and setup

i was wondering where is tent or tarp, sleep mat and sleep bag or u only doing events that have accom ,hostels bus stops along the way/ alex mcormack won highlands 550 he slept in boothy and toilet bu t then again he took 3 days i took 15 to complete that course

5000

Sorry my mistake, 5000 🫣

Yes 🙌 Great light

Did not know it was a song 🙌

Bikepacking has never ment to be cheap.

No, they were a Christmas present, some spend on cars, I do it on bikes more healthy 🫣

@@Buzzalong.cycling They are fantastic, rock on!

Why did you buy these wheels compared for example Enve (wich is like the best in the bests in most reviews for anytype of riding for (i didin’t know enve can look cheap 😂) And why only 35mm wheels why not 40-50mm wheels? Really curoius bike set up!

@@Buzzalong.cycling i think that was a good move all the top guys are usign carbon wheels there seems no other choice

Marketing

my bike is 10.6kg ( scott scale 720 mtn bike) and bags about 15 to 16 kgs so 26 kgs i have to start buying albion gear and re think the whole set up to reach 15 kilos i had no idea .....

If you fall you are also likely to fall on your side and smash your phone exactly when you need to call for help.

@@ninarodin4249 indeed...

So, that math is wildely inacurate. First of all, you cant just add weight like that and use it as a measurement of exertion. Secondly all the weight you need to push up on the upstroke also exists on the downstroke, thus basically pulling your leg down and negating any extra effort you put in on the upstroke. I guess you could argue that its not good to have that extra weight on only one side, but the weight is so little and high up on the leg, it creates miniscule amount of torque. I will conced the point that it puts your phone at risk during a crash, but otherwise dont sweat over carrying your phone on the leg

@@ricobohm7781 ok. Try to get extra 250g on one leg and pedal 3 days for 12H a day. Then we can talk about. You will feel then if both legs are "the" same. If I am wron why they pro cycling shoes are so light?

​​@@austinsnow197Im not saying wheight doesnt exist. 250g are still 250g and some people would argue that rotating weight is especially important, hence why light shoes make sense (in that way you could argue the phone adds to the inertia of the leg, but i dont think we want to go there). But in general light stuff on the bike is light because its easier to accelerate and go up hills. I wasnt trying to suggest weight is unimportant, my point is that the weight on your leg isnt any more important, than elsewhere and that you calculations where faulty or rather not applicable in this context. Otherwise you are of course free to do as you please and as the other commenter suggested, if only for the reason of protecting your phone and leg in a crash, its probably not that wise to keep your phone on your leg. :)

Jealous much?
