First time posting on this website, only discovered this website about a month ago. I have a Trek 5000 bike which is just over a year old. I am a leisure cyclist and I have done over 4,000kms this year on various long distance charity cycles.
It is now time to replace my Bontrager tyres, only I dont know which tyres to go for, different people have given me different opinions eg. Michelin, Continental etc.. So any opinions would be appreciated .
Also, I am considering up grading my Bontrager Select wheels over the winter months, again I am looking for advice on different makes, value for money, internet addresses etc..
One last question, I am looking to buy the Discovery channel jersey and shorts on the net but any of the usual sites(Probike,chain reaction) do not stock them. Does anybody know a website where they can be purchased.
I know that the issue of new tyres/wheels has been dicussed before on this website, but I would appreciate any advice as I am not very well versed on bike parts etc..
