Hi Guys,
Help me out here......
I will be racing in some XC races, but also for longer training rides in the likes of Lee Quarry.
Currently got SID 110's on my Whippet, but they're getting a bit worn so after some new forks.
My strength seems to be on the flats and uphill and I'm still a bit nervous and slower than others on the rough downs.
Would 120's suit me better and give me more confidence / aid with the downs, or will they reduce my effectiveness going hard on the flat and ups.
Thinking of 120's REBAS or SIDS if some come up cheap.
Thanks,
Pat.
I'd go 120. I recently had a 100mm ht built up and spent all the time riding it wishing for slightly longer legs.
Happy with the 100's and don't bottom them out.
Just wondering if the main advantage of the 120's would be going down tough descents, and if that would outweight what I love about the 100's for climbing and fats flats.
Pat.
