Thanks Pars... 25 and 23, They look good, and 195 grs is a good weight like the Michelin

orthographyUmm thanks for the recommendation. I know that the tubular on the road is more complicated and here it´s a "strange bird". We have soft winters (nim. around 13º) so I think it doesn´t a real problem.
Canarias is an EU territory (schengen, etc...) but with an especial VAT so If I buy something on EU (on Spain continental for example), I will pay customs... politicians


Ok, I will listen you and I will continue looking Veloflex (clinchers). 68€ is a good price for two Tyres.

Yes i use clinchers but I can change to tubular if it's necessary , the DT is tubeless ready ...and really I haven´t any preference on road (on MTB I only want tubular of course).
I don´t found the veloflex clinchers ¿?
Hmmm, thanks. It's a good price Cd44!. Here in Canarias you always pay customs so I need to search a low prices on shipping. I could seek and buy a pair and wait it until burn the Conti.

Well, I would like to test some Vittoria model but Stevens Custom Service only offer Continental and GP 4000SII is the top. I always run with 108psi rear/front. On my BH I used Pro4 during last year and the feeling was very different but with ~5000 kms they were dead
When I started with the carbon saddle I need a couple of days to get used, but now I don´t want other saddle!. Yes, the problem is the high Price... I don't understand Why a simple carbón saddle today is as expensive.
1 hour ago, CD44hi said:Nice bike, I imagine the disk brakes are a real advantage going downhill on those long descents there?
Yes, here we have long descents and you need a goog brake if you don´t want died.
You can easily reach 70 kms (~43 M) I had on the BH Ultegra dual pivot brakes (6800) and it's a good brake but it's impossible to compare. The feel of the disk is very soft. You do not need to strain to slow down and your hands never hurt you. You only need to adjust a bit to soft and progressive touch. It´s very similar to my XT.
EMHO the digital and disk are the future.

Yes but It's very complicated. The organization does not have enought money to afford a stage here... flights, hotels, move bikes and material. We are far from the continent.
For example Sky and Tinkoff training here on winter and they rent bikes, etc... and spend much money.

Hi guys:
My rise to Pico de las Nieves, the hardest mountain pass in Europe.
Puerto. I'm very pleased with myself.
2h15" total time. Kms 5 to 7 is the most hard, very, very hard, a slope of 19% without any pause . I've never climbed anything so hard. It´s awful.
Edit: I used a 12/30 ultegra and a 34/50 compat.
