INRNG 2026 Predictions

Now I understand what you were referring to. The "technical name" is a marketing name, "Ice Technologies Freeza". The black inner sections form a heat sink/radiator to cool the rotor. Some are painted white, others are black. It's a Shimano thing. Ice Freeza

He toys with everyone else.

It keeps getting worse.

Onley. Six million Euros. Crazy.

I can't unsee that.

Double IPA, in between a west coast and east coast, light body, no juice. You have to drink it from the can. It does taste different in a glass.

Pinarello chose the Zipp CL locknuts because the speed sensor magnet slips over them. Shimano USA doesn't seem to carry the MT900's, not sure why. I was considering either the MT800 or CL900. So far so good with the Tubolitos. We carry about five different brands, so if they don't work out, I...

It's going to be another Pog can't be beaten year, unless he has a serious injury. I agree about Remco. I've seen him dropped too many times on the Cat 1 and HC climbs. He can hang on one or maybe two of them, but no more. Maybe he will surprise us this year. Visma has a lot to prove. In a way...

I don't see this, but it's probably my cellphone's distortion. The rotor is a standard CL900 Dura-Ace rotor, as perfectly circular as they make them.

That's a gorgeous bike. I love what they did with it. The Orca is a race bike, though, whereas my Allroad is based on a gravel frame (Grevil). The geometry is very different than the Orca. I don't have to worry about twitchiness. I did shorten the bars to 660mm as part of this upgrade, and I...

I use glow sticks, but that's a nice kit.

I am in the process of upgrading the ProMax F1 brakes on the Pinarello (it should have come with Deore), to XTR. I was not happy with the performance of the F1's after bedding them in. The frame is set up for flat mount front and rear. I wanted to use the XTR XC levers, which are small...

This is part of the Park IR1.3 internal routing kit. I used it this morning to replace the brake hose in the Pinarello fork.

Or equivalent.

Show us a pic of the jockey wheels, cleaned up. Define the glitch. Does it overshift or undershift? Before I'd replace the jockey wheels I'd check the derailleur hanger alignment.

Unless you're the leadout man

Some shops use grease on carbon parts, but that's not proper.

It's been in the single digits F here for days now, no warming above freezing, and we have another storm coming tomorrow.
