Re: Garmin changes inbound

Strava costs I can understand as their platform is software/hosting costs same as office 365
Gamin you pay a lot of money for the physical device, some of the new garmin watches are £900+ and have a shelf life due to software updates and battery life.

Re: Lightweight touring rack | Tailfin? Other alternatives?

I'm looking to start combining touring with remote working, so I think that using a pannier is going to be the best option. I'd like a rack that I could switch between my road bike and the gravel bike, and for this process to be as quick and easy as possible. What are the options? Is there anything...

Road bike tyres

Hi

I'm just looking for some new roadie tyres, The Continental Grand Prix 5000 seem to always get great reviews but at £50 a tyre its the same price I pay for a car tyre :D

Is there much of a difference in ride and speed quality from 700 x 28 to a 32?

Thanks

I say XL as they offer quite a bit more room than a standard version which allows you to place your mat inside should you wish. Do you need a tarp? In truth that depends whether it's raining. If it is and you don't have ...
