Will you need to wear a buff or mask

Also interested, the Scout looks like great value

Yes the SLX drivetrain is fine, but the fork?

Hopefully closer to 12kg

I was looking at getting a getting an HT, but is difficult to get a good deal. For me the price should drop quite a bit even if the bike is reletavely new due to the warranty not being carried over Stuff are just way overpriced

Definitely parts online. Been using Bike24 and R2 Bike a lot from Germany, works out cheaper on bigger orders. Bought last two bikes at lbs at amazing prices. Propably just more convenient shopping online

Had a 2016 Merida 96 6000. Very fast bike, but felt more twitchy and unstable through turns then my current Scott Spark But really fast bike

Any injuries for the main gc guys in the crash

How do they run at these lower pressures? Don't feel too flat?

Looks like the GP5000 has the best protection of the more racier options, maybe thats why it is also slightly heavy at 300g for a 25C Would love to run a 28C, but think I might struggle to fit one at the back

I had the 25C of these, both got cut pretty quickly, Maybe was just bad luck and not bad tires But yes, the rolled really well, pretty comfy and was quite light (think about 255g for the TLR)

Appears to be a bit hit and miss. My Hutchinson Fusion 5 both did not last long and both got cut with less than a 1000km on each Vittoria Corsa 2.0 I am running now are decent, but don't seem to roll very fast (or at least feels that way compared to my GP4000 clinchers I had). They hold air well and grip well in the wet. Ride is a bit harsh, but think I am running my pressures to high. Still at 7bar rear and 6.7bar front (I am about 80kg), maybe need to go closer to 6bar.

Frustrating

Things have really gone downhill since the 2017 TDF top 10

I have some older (think 2015) Spez Pro XC shoes, so I hope these fit about the same LG and Giro shoes have also been fine for me, but normal Sidi's crush my small toe
