    Washing the bike is it worth it?

    I have the same framed bike, and it’s a problem supporting it in a work stand. Can’t really support it with the Seat tube as there isn’t enough material to grip it. Only other way is to lift it in a purpose made stand under the chain stays.

    What are you riding with - Flats vs Clips?

    Prefer to be clipped in whilst airborne, you have a better level of bike control being connected and the main reason you know your foot is in exactly the right position when landing. ( had a situation a few weeks ago on flats when landing with my foot a bit further back than it should be, if...

I don’t see the point, ( unless your racing) just back off and save the drive train. typical tho of anything new, cost, spare...
