Wheels of Happiness
Rizal Philippines
April 24, 2018
It is only lately that I feel that I am one with my bike. After nearly 10 years of biking. That comes from:
1. Constant use of the bike, and knowing its quirks and capability;
2. Being happy with its parts and performance:
1. The fit: TT tube 50 cm
2. Weight due to 1.2 kg alum frame, 1.435 wheel set, lightweight seat post, stem, and drop
bar: short reach, (compact) and 120 mm drop.
3. The addition of Jagwire nipples for the cable leading to crisper shifting, and better
braking
Hence, I on several occasions can pace with the paceline (or even lead the peloton) or lead other similar age riders. And I do not get fatigued as it was before.
With a good bike and with great appearance, you are more motivated to bike, and bike better
