Shimano, but not quite up to XTR standards."

"Twisted Spoke doesn’t usually weigh in on what other bloggers have to

Alberto Contador used his pre-race press conference to attempt to play

Alberto Contador is the predicted winner, for some the question is

his suspension but this is was not the normal two year ban, instead he
has only missed six months of racing, enough time to get in plenty of
training without losing too much racing speed.

succession - starting with the two Swedish races at the Open de Suède
Vårgårda.

BikeRumor:
"I’ve been up and down and over and out, and I know one thing, the new
SRAM XX1 drivetrain is the real deal. Forget about 27.5″ wheels,
electronic shifting, and GPS optimized magnetic suspension, the new
1×11 drivetrain is the new voodoo I’m lusting for."
