Any question answered...

Indeed, cordura is an air textured nylon.

If it has a coating on the inside (some don't but its rare) then as above the tumbling around in the washing machine likely won't do it much good.

Pretty much the lightest functional pedal I've seen, good for touring/commuting - even has serviceable bearings.

These work for clips and straps... ?
Oh, you mean strap only configurations.

Which one of these do I need for a 15mm front wheel? The one that says 15-32mm chassis?

I've just put a set of Pasela PT 28's on my bike and they say inflate to 105psi, but anything over 75psi feels like I'm having to really force the air in and the tyres already feel very solid. Is this usual with larger tyres, and should I persevere to recommended pressure or go by what feels like proper inflation?

What pump are you using?

105 is the maximum. Unless your bike's all up weight is about 130kg, you don't need 105psi in 28mm tyres. 75psi (average, say 70 front/80 rear) would be about right for an all up weight of about 95kg

Ahh, I misinterpreted "inflate up to 105" as an instruction rather than a indication of acceptable range. I blame red stripe.

Cheers for the suggested pressures, will do just that (all up weight <90).

All up weight?

plus luggage

No, I mean all-up weight. 'Gross' could mean just the vehicle, 'all-up' unambiguously includes everything.

You not understanding something is not the same as ambiguity.

Does Germany have the same daylight saving timetable as the UK? In other words, do the clocks change in Germany this weekend?

http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2014.html

Same as us - they change on Sunday morning as well.

Fab, thank you! I'm on an overnight train to Germany tonight, guess I'm getting to my destination an hour early then!

Have a great trip, Hattie!

I've managed to lose the top half and bolt of a saddle clamp (correct name?)

Are they generally universal?

Nope, though certain styles are very common.

Can you buy the top half or Is it easier to just get a seat post. It's nothing special

That explains me waking up early today.

How much slower is a corima 4 spoke than a hed 3 for time trialling?

Also will this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151452363439?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT (basically a surly fixxer) convert any shimano hub or any hub with a shimano free hub?

That's the Walker Brother's version, I already answered this in reply to your question in the TT thread.

How much slower is a corima 4 spoke than a hed 3 for time trialling?

3.81s per 10 miles.

They are supposed to be much nicer than Hed3s in a crosswind, which is worth bearing in mind as some people find the Hed3 a handful when it's breezy.

Where can I get down tube cable stops in black that aren't plastic?
