Depending on the budget, but I bought a pair of these after a recommendation from this very forum. To say I've been impressed with the comfort from day one would be an understatement. Superb quality, from the very first day I used them they've been so comfortable to ride and walk in, I don't think y...

In short, Yes. The longer version... Early firmware for the 605 & 705 didn't allow for charging on the go. That was changed with an update somewhere along the way. If you have kept your 705 updated then yes you can charge it & use it at the same time. If you haven't, then you probably can p...

As the titles are can this bed done? I've had the 705 for a few years and it's never let me down. I'm off to France in June touring and it'll be used every day for two weeks, so is it possible to use it whilst being charged with a solar charger or similar?
Thank you

Apologies in advance if this topic has been covered. I'm looking for suggestions for a front pannier rack to carry my tent (3kg) hopefully across the top rather than on the left or right of the pannier. Or if there are any other options available, I have a rear pannier with a pair of carradry bags p...

I've been cycling using a road bike for many years, sometimes cycling over a hundred miles a day and I have never experienced anything other than the usual sore legs from a good ride. My dilemma is just before Christmas I treated myself to an 1980's retro Raleigh Thunder Road mtb. I've only had the ...

Don't know about France but I know a number of routes suggested by via Michelin for cyclists are not possible on the ground in Spain. Have heard of others ending up on fire roads and extraction lanes when following suggested routes in Germany and France. However, for distances and general planning ...

Many thanks for the replies, I'll have a look at the suggestions made.

Plain and simple, as the title says how accurate is the Via Michelin app using it as a way to ride through France?

Looking forward to the replies

Many thanks for the recommendations and advice. Looks like I'm going to have to try a few pairs before the final decision is made.

I'm used to riding road bikes with spd sl cleats but I've just bought an old Raleigh Thunder Road and hope to do a tour around France with it next year. I wanted to use spd pedals so I can use them to walk in. I like the classic look of the giro republic road shoe and I've also seen a pair of arturo...

I own a couple of bikes one of which is a Casati Vinci. I'd like to do a bit of touring on the Casati it has rack mounts on the rear but my question to anybody with the knowledge is the rear stays are made from carbon so what weight could I realistically hope to carry on the bike using panniers. My ...

Any help much appreciated.
