Re: Garmin Live Track - not working
Fixed the issue by reinstating the old version 4.29 as the issue seems to be with v4.30 released 28th April

Re: Garmin Live Track - not working
Same issue here too, tried re-pairing units but still doesn't work.
It there a FOC alternative, as quite like the idea of tracking for the family whilst out.

Great, many thanks for the technical (and financial advice) I had hoped they where the same but thought I'd ask.

Sora r3000
Any one know if the new R3000 sora levers are compatible with my existing r3500 front and rear derailleur, I would like to upgrade just the levers to get the advantage of the consealed cables, but not sure if they will be compatible with to old r3500 derailleur.

Re: Tyre Tales
I've used gatorskins on my winter commute for years without any issues, that was until this year's replacement which are so slippy and already had a few "scary moments. I have reduced the pressures a bit more this year that has made them usable, doubt I'll buy anymore.

Winter commute tyres
I'm currently using 28mm gatorskins for my 10 mile (road) daily commute, not sure if the compound has recently changed but the current tyres seem to be a bit "slippy" and it's not really got into autumn / winter yet.
Any suggestions for an alternative !!!

SRAM Rival Hydraulic brakes
Anyone know how to adjust the brake levers on the SRAM rival, NOT the reach but the "leading " to them starting to wor the front brake seem find a small amount of movement before the brake starts to work, but the rear brake is very sharp, not lever movement before the brake is on and locks up the wheel.
This is a new bike to me an Boardman CX team so has drop bars and never had hydraulics before.
Any help thanks in advance

Re: squealing cantilever brakes
Not ordered the uphanger yet, but swapped the pads again with some 60mm rather than the 72mm and seems to have reduced the squealing by 90%
So going to commute next week on it and see how it goes.
