    I also use my CX for

    I also use my CX for everything at the moment and have been riding with either 32 or 28’s Durano which are very forgiving. Using 28’s at the moment I still like the 32’s though.

     

    I have Gatorskins on my road bike (25’s) and have never had any issues with them, I find them very good.

    Just wanted to check back in. I’ve had some issues with the Grade recently, with 4 spokes snapping in just three rides on the same wheel. Granted I’m not the lightest but I’m under the recommended max and I was on reasonably well surfaced roads. It turns out the factory wheel’s spokes were massively over tightened. I would recommend getting your LBS to check the spoke tensions when they build it. I bought mine under C2W from Halfords, and I have to say my local store has been really good; they have ended up swapping the wheels for some Mavic CX wheels. Other than that, I still really like the bike. On a side note, what’s wrong with Gatorskins for a winter wheel? Decent reviews, not too pricey and I trust the brand.

     

    Cheers for the info, also I have ran gatorskins for years now and never had any issues I have only ever had 2 punctures and had got home before I noticed. the majority of my 5000 miles a year are done on them.

    Cheers for all the feedback, problem solved now as Estates have spare swipe cards which you can sign out should you forget yours. Seemed they had not thought of that!
