Any question answered...

They also need to be the same brand as the stem or fiery death will occur.

Black frame, black forks, black wheels, black everything but silver chainring bolts? That's just wrong...

Not just fiery death. Fierydeathcrash. It's worse than mere fiery death.

I am assuming I don't need bike stem specific M5 bolts?

Most stems use fairly weak grade steel screws, for which A2-70 or A4-70 stainless is an acceptable substitute. I would caution that using stainless screws in aluminium components solves the screw corrosion problem by turning it into a component corrosion problem, particularly in salty environments like marine/coastal or sweaty.

My 2 bolt shoes suck up water from the ground in winter, it comes through from the cleat holes in the sole. It appears the Time Atac cleats wick fluid up from underneath. Would a waterproof tape applied inside the shoe stop this? If so what tap should I buy?

How about Pitlock?

Does anyone make anything like this:

that'll fit a larger phone, iPhone 6+ Sized?

Why is there always horse shit on King's Cross Road? Specifically the bit by Swinton Street. I'm assuming someone is walking their horse along there. Who, and why?

What I use know but Id like something a little less disposable, I find the bags wear out.

older style MTB triples ,basically where there is no shaft connecting the two crank arms
they can fit a road bike eh? with the appropriate BB - ISIS, octa, square t etc etc
i'm finding newer road Triples to be expensive (or cheap but heavy)
my bikes all running 9 speed (or less) would mean road STI would shift the ratio correctly on the front mech for shimano.

I don't understand this question.

The chainline isn't that different, use the same length BB.

Shimano 9sp MTB FD and Shimano 9sp road FD should move the same horizontal distance per click.

perfect. thanks!

Military horses probably or Steptoe and Son.

Do you want actual waterproof ?

Ideally, but showerproof will do. I like that that one i pictured also has an internal wallet

Can one use a "normal" Gatwick - London ticket on the Gatwick Express train? Or is it separate to the standard railway and requires a special Gatwick Express ticket?

You need a specific ticket for the Gatwick Express.

Suspected as much - thanks for the answer!

Have a look at Outdoor Research, E Case, Aquapac and Exped all make decent waterproof soft cases in many sizes with a variety of closure systems.

Edit: I now see a couple of those have already been mentioned

What I use know

You need a phone with better autocorrect
