So I have been riding my Giant M1 26 ins wheels, using the front 48 cog with a 17 rear and not changing gear all week. Not too bad unless I have got the gearing way off and it's a heavy bike, about 15 kgs. Went on a 25 mile run yesterday as I was off work and even got up the steep bit in Richmond Park at the Robin Hood Gate and later back up that slope at Ham Gate. Couldn't get faster than 17/18 mph on the flat tho'.
Have to say I was knackered today and legs ache.
Am I ready?
I fancy the Langster but non of the stores have it in stock and want a deposit just to get one in so I can have a look. If I like it in the flesh I'll want to have a go but I have to see it first. I like the look of the Allez Elite so is the black Langster pretty similar and the 56 cm Allez fits me like a glove so would the same size Langster be OK.
Sorry for the amount of questions but the lbs have not been too helpful. Maybe I'll look to eBay or Gumtree as there is not much to go wrong with a ss.
Cheers.
