What gearing do you now have on the Colnago?
Are you taking your race bike to the tour?

Hi ,just the standard Dura ace race set up, yes i am taking my Col to the Alpes,
i just need some info before i go out & buy a set of Zipps they are expensive but i think from what i read they will give me the edge,
were mainly on the flat here in DXB but we do have mountains on the Oman Boarder where we have organised training evry month or so which i will up as i get closer the the trip.
thanks.
