[Closed] New Bike Day.... Slightly out of season

I picked up my new CX bike today, although the season is basically over, it took a while to arrive from the suppliers.

As it's going to be used as a more of a gravel / commuter type machine until next September I've fitted a set of those Vittoria Adventure Trail TNT tyres that Planet-X were knocking out for a tenner each.

Build wise it's a stock KTM Canic CXC with Force CX1 groupset and DT Swiss CR1600 Spline wheels. I've swapped the frankly massive 46t chainring for a more sensible 42t and that's about it.

@neilsonwheelsย they should be available from any KTM dealer or ordered via the distributors websiteย ย FLi Distributionย ย  and then collected from your local dealer.

They come with Schwalbe X-One TLE 33m tyres as standard btw.

I can report it's a cracking ride, really smooth and surprisingly fast. Did 52km home from work last night, even on the Vittoria Adventure II tyres I averaged 28kph for the route, they roll very nicely on tarmac and grip on the hard-pack / stoned pathways I came across.
