Endura Flat
winter season bike equipment
As I mentioned inside my last post not anything is better than a winter ride here is a checklist of my “Winter Ride Essentials”
Before you can actually take into account the bike you have to decide what to wear, with the big selection of clothing open to help keep you warm it could be difficult to choose so now is a variety of my favourites.
Bottom Layer – Endura Baa Baa Merino Long Sleeve Base Layer
Jersey- Altura Attack Long Sleeve Jersey
Jacket – Gore Alp X III Jacket
Legwear – Altura Attack Waterproof Trousers
After you have kitted out with all the basics it could be worth paying for some warm socks or high performance overshoes to stop your toes from freezing to death. Whenever your good to go kit up your Mountain Bike with essentials which include; inner tubes, energy food & drink and even more importantly a mobile phone in case.
Another item you may want to take with you is a high performance light to be sure you don’t get caught out in low light levels, I prefer a Exposure Joystick that allows me to ride all night long in thick snow, but then again I am a bit mad.
[20/12/2010 17:13:20] John Morgan: After a few bad reviews from the likes of Bike Radar, I had been sceptical of riding the Moda Presto Mountain Bike, but simply because it was shiny and brimming with first class kit I just now couldn’t resist. Taking it around the lake I stumbled upon several problems mostly regarding the ascents and descents making me feel slightly nervous in comparison to my Felt but I stayed with it, around the flat parts of the lake is the place the Presto shone through offering amazingly high spec for a bike under £1000 it flew over small bumps using the Reba SL Fork absorbing most of the vibrations.
Towards the end with the 25 mile course I wasn’t obsessed about the Presto (I enjoy my Felt too much to care bout another bike) however it has still impressed me a lot more than almost every other full suspension bike within the £1000 cost range, mostly because every other full susser in this price structure is a sack of crap filled up with poor quality components or well recognized brands “value models” however the Presto has some of the best kit available (in addition to the rear shock).
After all where else could you get the blend of American Classic MTB 26 Disc wheels having a full Shimano XT drivetrain along with a Reba SL Team Fork for just £1000, you could possibly might find these under that price if you searched online for weeks but thats not precisely what the Presto is, its a whole bike offering amazing components as well as a frame and all additional bits and bobs you have to construct a bike.
The most severe scenario sceanrio is the fact that you buy this bike take it for just a ride and absolutely hate it, you can strip it down throw everything onto a superior performance frame such as a Cove Handjob and you’d result in an amazing hardtail for a super good deal, plus you can actually ebay the shock.
My recommendation would be to grab one of them because at this price they will not be around for long.
