    Out Front Quadlock: 2025 Turbo Vado

    I also use Quadlock on my bikes and have done for many long European tours. Totally secure and I’ve never had an issue with cameras

    Mine do seem to get a little squidgy but firm up with a few lever presses. Perhaps they have a little air in need bleeding anyway!

    Or the SQ lab inner bar ends work well for this and also give an excellent extra hand position. I installed some after reading Stefans recommendation a couple of years ago and can confirm their benefits. I have an SL2 and Vado 5 and the inner ends nicely hold the display clear of the ground when...

    Stefan I’ve just looked up that Sofiane Sehili guy. Impressively tough and able but He obviously knows nothing about bikes or how to select a good set of wheels. 😂

    And they offer a 3 yr warranty! When I ordered my carbon wheels recently I stupidly didn’t see that in error I’d ordered hookless! Return and exchange was effortless and without question. All the riders I know with Hunt have been happy with their purchase and any issues have been quickly...

    I’m sure you know already but Just in case……the times I’ve built tough wheels for loaded touring (never gone out of true after 1000’s miles with camp gear). Lubricate the nipple threads (linseed works well and then dries to prevent loosening). Even tensions and most importantly de stressing then...

    they have an excellent reputation in UK. I’m not sure country of manufacture equates to quality these days. Many of our big named frames are made in the far east….. to western company design and standards. No doubt that includes our beloved Specialized.

    Yes per set. Increased price to £566 now as they had an extra 10% deal on top of the 33%. Seem to get good reviews…….time will tell.

    I put some Hunt carbon wheels on my SL2 recently. Despite the 700g reduction in weight (per wheel) I can’t say I’ve felt much difference in performance Other than the bike being easier to accelerate from standstill. They are rates as being suited to road and light gravel so not for the rides you...

    That’s a coincidence…..51% is the number of the UK population who voted to come out of the EU. I’m not really being fair as they are not all stupid….sadly just a little gullible perhaps. Anyway everyone knows that the Americans, Polish or even the English don’t speak English properly. That...
