Just wondering what I can do to boost my uphill performance. I'm about 11 stone, running a carbon boardman air 9.0 with 26t ring and Hunt Aero rims. Just got overtaken on a 23% gradient which goes on for about a mile by a lanky bloke flat out who must've put in 150 yards lead before the top. I was practically doing a wheelie.
I'm no wheeze and have been doing similar gradients on a much heavier alu for over a year. I also run several miles daily!
Only thing I caught a glipse of was the tyres, possible 23 vs my 25's but even still.
