Wahoo Elemnt

Wahoo is great if you keep on track but not if you deviate!

I have recently switched to the Wahoo from a Garmin. I wish I had done this earlier. See Garmin review. Only a few weeks in and I highly rate this GPS unit. Easy to use app, big clear screen. Loads of battery. The menu system is really intuitive on the unit itself and it is easy to hook up with Strava, Komoot and many other apps. The one thing I have noticed is that if you plot a course but deviate from this you will have yo go back and find the original route, it won’t reroute for you like the Garmin did. It's easy to keep your old Garmin mounts if you have them with an adapter you can purchase here.

Colnago C60

“The Colnago C60 is so good it might be the last bike you'll ever need”

I love riding this bike. It’s the best bike I have ever owned.  It just feels fast but handles like a dream. Corners like its on rails, stiff for explosive uphill sprints but comfortable enough for all day rides. It is the top end from the C range and still hand made at the factory in Cambiago, just outside Milan. With it's beautiful craftsmanship and rich history it really stands out. Sigma Sports visited the factory here and read more on the history here. Save up and buy one!
