The mrs is going to be riding the knockburn scx race later in the year
She has a stock genisis dayone alfine she uses for commuting - it has guards and a rack on . Do i need to remove them for the bike to meet any rules ?
If i remove them now she will have no way of ridin to work for the next 4 weeks.
I've seen people race with rack & guards. Not ideal though, especially if it's a course with claggy mud - possibility of lots of clogging. Why do you have to take them off 4 weeks before the race? Surely you'd whip them off on the morning of the race and refit them after cleaning the bike later in the afternoon?
I work abroad an they would have to come off today and im
Not due back till my visa runs out in november
Dont suggest she takes em on and off .
That could be very painful an very detrimental to the contents of my garge
Buy her a race cx bike you tight fisted ****
Cheers sheldon.
For 1 cx race. If she enjoys it we might but no chance just now
I just bought a very expensive boiler andheating system for the house for winter that was more pressing than a race cx bike 🙂
If you have SKS mudguards or similar then adjust the gap between the tyre and mudguard to reduce the chance of clogging up on the race
its a no
on the grounds of "to many pointy bits to hurt your self/other people"
although it was suggested that clip on guards may be ok.
i can see their point when it comes to that its just a pain in my ass hole ....
narrow tires on the mtb it is then.
