The Bike Shop / big boys bike advice.

« on: May 28, 2015, 11:22:30 AM »

So I've managed to bag a job for September that's about 11 miles away. I've been looking into getting a big boys bike but need some advice. Its pretty hilly, 20% at one point, and the route is single track country lanes for a lot of it. So not smooth tarmac. What would people recommend? Budget is around £750.
Do I get a road bike? Cyclocross? A rigid mountain bike?

I would like something I can stick some slightly more aggressive tyres on for the winter.

I was thinking of a canndale synapse disc 105 which is a bit over budget. Any cheaper alternatives?

The Bike Shop / keychain installation

So I finally got a hollow keychain. But the chain breaker adaptor doesn't fit my chain breaker. Of course I dont want to mess up a quite expensive chain. What have others done to over come this?

I would really like alloy cranks without pinch bolts or splines. Not both.

Odyssey key chain is out now. Apparently.
So this is ment to come with an chain tool adaptor for initially breaking it to size is that right?
