The Fred Whitton Challenge 2021. 25 year old bike frame vs the UK's TOUGHEST one day ride.

Join me on a bucket list ride where I take on the Fred Whitton challenge 2021 on my beautiful 25 year old Klein Quantum frame. Can my bike survive, and can it hold its own against the likes of it modern counterparts? Watch on to find out the answer.
This ride takes on the rugged lake district and is dubbed the ' UK's TOUGHEST ONE DAY RIDE'. Here is my honest review of the course set out by the organisers.
Please check out the rebuild of this bike that is already published on the Time for Bikes to find out more about the bike

Off course the bike would make it! I guess this was more about the rider and circumstances than anything else.... Nice one, congrats!

[@timeforbikes]

Thanks Adri! It was just great to have this stunner out proving that how well it has aged in both looks and performance. The rider a good bike to get through this one! Thanks for stopping by!

What chainrings did you use if you don’t mind me asking

[@timeforbikes]

I used a 36 52 combo (compact chainset) standard shinano 105 rings. Hope that helps, take care and happy cycling 🙂👍
