I'm gravelbiking in the Alpes often on quite technical trails at the limit of my bike and encountering quite a few people on eMTBs who could never have made it up otherwise. Who has the right of way? Imho the unassisted cyclist should have the right of way both up and down since it's just much harder choosing the right line and/or maintaining momentum for eg a gravel bike compared to an eMTB which also tends to have much wider tyres.

Nuroad race 2026, how to change handlebar height? it seems to be impossible without detaching cables and hoses

Edit: oh how dumb of me, you can just move the cable guide spacer up and use a split spacer

How much should I cut my steerer, to my road fit or leave a bit of a chimney?

I received my new bike from the dealer with a 3cm chimney. In this setup 1cm of the stem is unsupported

Which sadist decided to put the Hautacam and Galibier segment finishes before the actual summit (Galibier finish seems to be at the tunnel) ? Seriously you think you are almost there and can finally relax but then you have to go up even further

(Otherwise I enjoy the new roads to cycle on 😉)

Officially unsupported for Ultegra and Dura Ace but not 105. I am considering putting an 105 11‐36 cassette on my bike for an event with over 9000m of climbing in the Alpes but I need reliability. Did anyone try, how did it work for you?

I'm a roadie that bought a basic gravel bike (cube nuroad race) to explore some of the gravel routes in the Alpes (like col du Parpaillon and others in that region of France and Italy). Does anyone have some tips, tyres. I bought schwalbe g-one pro r for rear and rx front 50mm but perhaps other tyres or combinations are better suited? Any essential gravel specific equipment I should bring which as a roadie I perhaps didn't think of? And suggestion for beautiful places around Barcelonnette, Guillestre or even Cuneo?

my windows license suddenly disappeared (um890 pro. I few months ago I rma'ed my old machine and kept the drive and memory and got send a new machine. Windows seemed to transfer the license back then but now my license is gone

Edit: I contacted MS support and they reactivated my copy. So for others with similar problems don't go messing with activation scripts, fortunately it failed to run for me

I just did a lactate test, LT1 came back what I expected it to be on feel and a recent 20 minute FTP test but LT2 much much lower (around 0.5W/kg) and below powers I held for 80-90 minutes in recent months. How to interprete?

Since I always have availability the same days I always have to do the same worlds. In zwift the schedule is sort of random so every day you have a possibility to visit all wirlds
