Tricross owners...

[James Ots]

It's nice to see all those Tricrosses. Hopefully I can soon add a picture of my 2014 Tricross Sport Disc - just as soon as they get into the shops (and once all the cyclescheme paperwork has gone through)!

You can't run anything narrower than 28mm on the 19mm rims of a Tricross, or so I was told.

You can and I have! Standard road tyres make it much faster.

Here's mine in regular guise:

Here's my 56 frame and the 58 that Gti Junior bought himself as a bargain from Gumtree to grow into, on a recent ride on the Preston Guild wheel for which Tricross is perfect:

I finally have my Tricross:

They've moved the rear caliper to between the seat and chain stays! Hydraulic brakes as well! Wow! What are they like?

They look like cable discs to me.

 

[James Ots]

They are cable disc brakes - Avid BB7s. Seem good, but the only frame of reference I have is my old mountain bike with worn out cantilever brakes.

OK then, what's the recommendations for Tricross mudguards? Anything better than SKS XLs?

Mudguards are Planet bike

On the pic is 25mm Marathon greenguard.

I have had 25mm Gatorskins on there as well no problems at all

Collected my Tricross on Saturday, also thinking of putting mudguards on it, so any recommendations welcome.

Blumels on mine too, though the wide ones so I can get my 37c studded tyres on as well as the usual 32's that I run.
