Can I ask the cross racers (as I haven'traced cross for abouyt 10 years) - do most people still take 2 bikes? With all this carbon, discs etc it must be getting a horrendously expensive form of punishment!

Only the quick lads. And not even all of them.

I take 3 bikes and 6 sets of wheels to big races. Yes it is expensive, but not as expensive as cocaine or owning children of which I don't partake in either of....

I saw somewhere the suggestion that lots of people were going to rip the front off their cross bikes in the next year or so by doing this. Might be nonsense though.
Been trying to break my bike for ages 😉
You're right though. The Vapour disc has a tapered head tube to 1.5" whereas mine (and the current canti one) has 1.125" all the way. Richpips seemed to get away with a disc fork on his Day One last year.
