Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question but here goes..
Im trying to up my riding a in order to try a sportive later in the year, my riding has mainly been MTB with a little bit of Road Riding, a few times with the club on a saturday but usually work doesn't allow that.
Getting out by myself mainly once or twice a week and usually incorporate the box Hill zig zag when I can. I notice that on the climb i feel i could do with that extra one or two gears to keep the legs spinning, something I notice from people passing me!
According to the Strava apt last time i was 9.43 for the Zig Zag Climb ( and No i wasnt walking)
At the moment I have a 53/39 fr and 12/25 rear. Is there any scope to change the cassette for something with a wider range? and is this the way to go?
Or shall I get to the Gym and do some power squats and get on with it?
Also considering a Garmin Edge 800 with cadence sensor and HRM also has ghost rider to ride against, any thoughts on this would be appreciated
Cheers Stuart
