Our review
I have always put it off.
– Not sure which one to get?

Over on the Cycling Tips website, they have revisited a fascinating article and updated it to cover the falling cost of carbon wheelsets as well as looking at the rise of discs being used. Well worth a read…

After the Tour, these are our favourite races and we’ve already had two brilliant days with Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and also Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne.
