He really got us to peddle over jumps which really helped
I have changed back to a 37x16 from the 36x16 that I had on this morning. Luckily a couple of my friends helped me dial in the bike ready for tomorrow and it is now flying.
I am loving the 175mm cranks too and my knee is hurting much less today than it had for the last month or so. I also felt like my peddle strikes were smoother and I wasnt rocking from side to side like I did on the 180mm cranks.
I need to get the peddle off of the cranks and then clean them to swap for some 175mm cranks so that I have 175mm cranks on both bikes.
Dylan is loving his new bike now that I have changed the pedals and the bars, grips and brake lever for the ones from his old bike.
It turns out that the bars from the DK are actually cruiser bars and almost exactly the same size as my S&M race bars so I am going to use them on my cruiser build.
I am just cleaning our bikes ready for racing tomorrow then I am going to take Dylan's only bike to bits ready to sell the bits and then go to the container and build up my cruiser as the tubes and rim tapes arrived from Crucial last week as well.
I was chatting to one of the guys from Bristol and he is looking to see if he had any landing gear forks left at his work as he works for one of the biggest distributors in the UK and they have a load of new old stock left over hopefully.
If he has some forks left over then I have all of the bits to build up the thrill next week to use to do sprints on the way to work in the mornings which I really need to get back to doing asap.
I have built up the back end of the thrill with the 170mm cranks that were on Dylan's old bike for now until I can get some new cranks for my race bike then I will put the cliq cranks on the thrill.
