Hi All
Climbing ain't easy!!! 17.5st is a lot to get up hills and Mountain Mayhem is fast approaching...  Do they really make such a difference? Do they work with XC riding, esp with lots of mud?!!! Heard a few horror stories of not being able to unclip and then having a slo-mo fall, or mud getting to thick, not being able to get cleats back on and then not being able to pedal... hmmm If it's a goer what do people recommend...? Cheers! Team Asparagus, MM 2010! -------------------- Kielder 100 2011
Mayhem 2011 for sure! Merida Brass Monkeys series Nov - Jan 2010/11 50% Team Asparagus, D2D 2010 (pair) Team Asparagus, Mountain Mayhem 2010 (four) |
