A plethora of tweaks to the daily...
A quick wash, destickered front wheel, fitted new saddle & a rather nice stem (120mm Profile Lava for 99p on the ebay)
But it's the little things that brought the greatest joy - finally got some nice crank dustcaps and fitted a hefty seatpost clamp that solved my creaky saddle.... It used to be an 8mm wide clamp with M4 screw and the seatpost creaked with every pedal stroke - I'd always assumed it was the USE alien that was creaking but when I broke it and replaced it with the Alpina the same creak remained and I realised it was the clamp after all.
