Almost a month since I picked up the Cube SL Cross Comp, which I love but it is causing a bit of a problem.
In my 2 years of commuting on the old Marin Bobcat Trail I'd reached a fine balance between the crap I snack on and the hell-for leather work-out on the way home. I lost the love handles and 2 inches off the waist after the first year and my weight was stable, and I eat chocolate.
The problem is that the Cube is such an easy ride compared to the Marin that I'm not burning the calories to the same extent, and the weight is starting to creep up.
So the question is do I cut back on the chocolate, or fit knobblies and adjust the brakes so they rub?
