Hi there
I am planning on doing my first C2C ride, Whithaven to Tynemouth soon.
I've got a Hybrid bike with triple at the front and 32 cc roads tyres vs a Road bike (alloy Spec diverge) with 28cc Conti GP 4 Season tyres (although road bike bike can take 32cc tyres also). Both have disc brakes.
I'm equally comfortable on both
Which bike should I use. Is the hybrid the better bet with triple MTB style gearing for the hills or am I better with the Diverge as lighter and will the typical compact setup be ok for the hills
Any advice gratefully received
Thanks
