Look what I just got in the post

Gotcha, good purchase indeed. I picked up an itm ti stem for a real steal recently as well. It's on my current bike and feels pretty nice, might be worth using for a bit? :-)

I am thinking I want to trade for an ergostem or alter, but it is in pristine condition, so I think it may actually be worth more than those

I did actually just win an alter for £31 on eBay so not far off...

Ha... worst Ebay packaging evah

Janette really needs to re-think her email signature.

Janette would probably be grateful if you blanked out her bank details too...

Haha...

60t track chainring and Michelin Mud 2s. Unlikely to be used in conjunction, but you never know.

Got luck an won a 27.2 Carbon flite seatpost :-P

Ooh fancy!

After trying to talk myself into buying a new bike, I decided the best option would be to improve, fix & prepare my current bikes for winter. So the everyday track bike is going to get new shoes. Bored of riding fixed in all weather I have gone with 3 speed sturmey archer hub gears with drum brakes. All the parts have arrived, I have been shown how to measure for spokes so the next step is attempting to build the things.

@young_gun you thought it was a joke ;)

edit: sorry about the usual photo phail... but why is it a joke to trade for an ergostem?

Trading for an ergo stem is a joke

@young_gun you thought it was a joke ;)

Ridiculous sized box from PX, with a set of white Zaffiro tyres (am I going to regret these?), a bunch of Pit Stop cartridges, some new High5 bottles/tabs, and some other bits I think I tagged on and can't remember.

2007 called, it wants its white tyres back.

Zaffiro tyres (am I going to regret these?)

Yep

Ha awesome, think it might actually work. As far as ergo stem, mismatched value and availability

I got some of those white zaffiros as well - I am sure they will be shite, but they were only 3.99 or something, and I needed to top up my order, so they are worth having to throw on a loaner for a friend, or something else.
@young_gun the ergostem may be rarer, but I have seen them go for as low as £50-60 on the forum, and alters and Ti grammos occasionally go that high or higher. I think I have something special in the pipeline though ;)

Yea, I wasn't sure if they had any puncture protection, but they have tread. Hmm. Dumped into the bikestuffcorner they go.

Should have bought more pit stops.

Pro or non Pro? I've done 6700 miles on a Zafiro Pro since winter 2013 with just the one puncture. In dire need of replacing now but not bad going for a tire that cost a tenner, cant grumble.

They're the regular Zaffiro II's so non pro. I ordered so late at night (barely minutes before daily deal ran out), so I forgot to check all that stuff.

Was hoping they'd survive the winter as a slower 'safer' tyre with tread until the gatorskins go back on. The bruise on my hip hasn't gone down much since the rain over a week ago. Don't want to repeat that.

very very good hubs!

this are literally hard to find!
