Here you can find out more about my gear.
In Rio I used an old Caloi MTB. Aluminium frame, very basic bike. I had attached to it a baby's chair, where I used to carry my daughter all around. It was a really useful bike!
When I arrived in London I bought a Claude Butler Echelion. It is a good bike, but too big for me, as it has a large frame. It served me well, but I had to change the tyres as they were really old. I replaced them with a Michelan Pro 3 Race tyres set. They were really good, made me go faster, but it would slide a bit if I had to make a brisk stop.

My current bike is a Point R Mango, nicknamed Hollie. It is a great upgrade from my old bike as it is lighter, more stable and its frame is smaller, more suitable to my height. It still has all the original parts, and I don't feel I will need to upgrade it for a while!

Seat bag: I bought this generic seat bag from Decathlon. It is not a high quality one, but does the job. I usually carry spare tubes (x2), a compact multi tool, a puncture repair kit for emergencies and bike lights for night rides.
