There's a new definition of arrogance - right there. Congrats on raising the bar to new levels.

It's not arrogance. It's stupidity. We should be grateful he took time out from his busy schedule of sweating, panting and guzzling lard to chip in, really.

I didn't get massive results from my rear disc tub but then I wasn't really expecting massive results . I feel I rode better and more efficient with it but there was a strong head wind so my time was down on my PB by ten seconds . I did manage a 220 lap though so its heading in the right direction . I'm going to swap over to my 40mm carbon clinchers and see how they go with the level of fitness I am now .
I want to get the best combination of wheels for me for the 50 I have at the end of the month :unsure:

C'mon @Citius, share with us what you ride?

The relevance has already been posted, but you're having "comprehension issues yet again" it seems.

The relevance is not whether they actually make a difference, but that you regularly say we're all stupid for believing the media hype and get sucked in to buying upgraded kit, when it's completely pointless. That sort of opinion makes what you ride extremely relevant.

Put up or shut up on this element perhaps?

Like I have repeatedly said, ad nauseam - I'll share it if you can ever explain why it's relevant. I've never said buying better kit is pointless in such general terms - and I would challenge now you to point out where I have said it.

Unfortunately, you are the one who needs to put up or shut up.

I don't think wheels give a significant performance benefit for the price, but I recently changed my wheels.

Hypocritical? No. I changed for a specific reason, with a known exact benefit, not in the belief that they're faster.

So a list of parts didn't really help without the reasons.

He doesn't resort to name calling apparently, yet called us all babies in the post preceding it.

The rest of his post does the same.
He also assumed in his last post that i was fat, arrogant and stupid........but i already put that down to his lack of intellect and education

To be fair, you have yet to prove any of that to the contrary on this thread.

No, I said I don't as a first line of response. As usual you're not reading the thread properly.

You treat us like crap and resorted to personal insult. I'm returning the favour. The informative stuff has already been covered.
