the only way i can, in as small a gear as possible. i stay with a group for about a mile or even a mile and a half, after that i start slipping back. im not what you might call a small guy, im 6' and 167.5lbs. ive never been a climber, and probably never will be. one thing ican do is sprint, ive only ever done well when the race was relativley flat and fast. i do keep trying to improve my climbing but a lot of the time it feels like im losing the battle.nashy_88 said:Bit of generalisation here as the gradient and length etc make each climb unique however for the majority of hill climbs what is your technique?
Maybe if you had a triple front ring. Then it is hard to balance because you are going so slow.spacefuzz said:hard to sit and spin when the grade is 17%
