well i'm 99% certain, am pretty certain 10/11 speed chainrings would be compatible so cant for the life of me see why 11/11 would'nt be

i'd be tempted if it is, was tempted last year but it clashed with something

altho after looking at the route i think it'd be a better ride in reverse...but thats just me

To be honest, it was ideal the way it was, plenty of climbing but with no real killer hills, I would certainly try to do it again if it was on. @Walter Ego ?

Rings are there, but you're more than welcome to the whole chain set. Much easier to change over etc.

If it has got the low miles on it I'd like it if that's ok ?
Cycleworld said as long as the same measurement ...110 or something like that, it should be compatible.

More importantly are you home ? Missus needs it all doing by the weekend. If you are I can pop round at some point.
Tried to PM you but wouldn't allow me

Let me know what you want for it

Cheers

Not happening. The dates don't work this year, will be back next year though.
 
This f***ing weather man :eek:...topping up sharp ran lines and having to buy extra water last week....followed by days on the turbo this week due to pissing it down :rolleyes:
 
Are these turbo trainers worth the money ?
I've got a mountain bike , would that work on one ?
Had quick look at road racing bikes but way too expensive for me

if you can get a decent one in the sale then yes

yes, they work on mtb's

if you're after a cheap road bike then either go second hand, or try decathlon

Yes Turbo trainers work and you can put a mountain bike on one, but you need a proper tyre.
They are a bit tedious but you will get results.
