Thread: Lubricant for XC spikes

    Re: Lubricant for XC spikes

    So what sort of terrain should I avoid using them on?

    I wasn't going to use them in any races that cross any tarmac sections (use fellshoes instead for them), what about those unmade dirt roads which have a scattering of compacted stones on them?
    I'm so naughty!!!!!!

    I've never found short stretches of tarmac a problem. Just lift your feet a bit higher so the spikes don't catch on the ground and snap of.
