Optomistically I built the Chumba with a 36t front chainring, last weekend it was clear my lungs and legs were not so pleased, having downsized to a 32t this weekend, felt much nicer on the climbs and fitted my fitness better ๐Ÿ™‚

Think next time I will move to a 34t before making the 36t jump, I tried to MTFU last week but I think an enjoyable ride is more important thank being able to use a 36... ๐Ÿ™‚

Nice bike, very similar to my Titus motolite but beefier it seems. Will this replace the Pitch?

Its wasn't planned to be a pitch replacement but its crossing my mind the more I ride the Chumba.
