Geared Up For Summer with Red Chilli Bikes
in Blog PostIt’s 3 months now since I started riding my RedChilli and it’s a huge difference. Having been riding a double chainring and 10 speed setup for years, I’m now on a compact 11 speed.

in Blog Post, Bloggers, Elite Cycle Trainers, Fitness, Health, Health and Lifestyle, Kit Reviews, Lifestyle, Robert Thorpe, Robert Thorpe Kit Reviews, Robert Thorpe Lifestyle, TrainingYes, my best fitness days are behind me and things tend to break or creak more easily, requiring repair.
