Fresh Goods Friday 122

by 16

Friday follows Thursday, as sure as tick follows tock, and from here we’re a short leap to the weekend.

So let’s get on with it, read on; it’s Fresh Goods Friday!

 SRAM XX1 Lapierre Spicy 916

One spicy SRAM groupset

It took a while to prise this from Jon’s fingers but we’ve got a rather lovely Lapierre Spicy 916 with SRAM XX1 groupset. Sim’s been inseparable from it since it arrived and he’s ready to spill the beans on his first impressions (watch out for his report this weekend).

It goes to 11

We’re aiming to put as many miles into the drivetrain as possible to see how it copes with the notorious Calderdale peaty grit mix.

The sound of one hand shifting.
