Especially mountain bikes and racing bikes are driven more and more often tubeless, thereby the driver:in promise increased traction and increased puncture resistance with less rolling

All about the Chinese L-TWOO eRX shifting group
What is this new Chinese shifting group?

In Rio de Janeiro,

Group Ride Etiquette
How do you behave on a Group Ride? We don't talk with our mouths full, we hold doors for each other, we don't interrupt anyone while they're talking, whoever calls shotgun first sits in the front of the car. We throw socks directly into the washing machine instead of leaving them on the floor, and we announce sidewalks and obstacles on the road by hand signals. Such countless unwritten rules determine peaceful coexistence in a culture, and if the last two examples in particular have made you wo
