Was hoping I could just find the lever blade bit on its own and not have to spend 1 million dollars getting a whole new lever.

Looks like condor are a sram distributor, will give them a shout. Thanks

not have to spend 1 million dollars getting a whole new lever.

Hah, it's SRAM. You'll need to get the whole groupset. Wait for the recall, it can't be long now. They've shipped OEM parts so the timing is just right for the shit to hit the fan.

I love the little scars on my 'best bike'.

• A scratch on a lever from riding into a barrier at 10kph going uphill With eyes rolled back and heart at a gazillion BPM.

• A scatch on a rear mech from a massive mountain descent stack.

• A little chip in my saddle from where I dropped my bike after a 21 hour sportive.

each to their own I Guess.

Badges of honour.

I've forgotten more battle scars than... I forget.

Ditto. My S2's saddle has a little tear on the side from when I dropped it descending the Col de Soller. Battle scars, hard won. #csb

I'm all for battle scars, but it's just a little too soon, I've had the thing like 3 weeks.

Have you considered cycle training?

Do they teach you how to lean?

Don't lean!

Darn, if only I'd known.

The little triangular plastic cap from my Pro Di2 stem is on the climb from Caimari somewhere.

Thats just annoying though.

Late october is when individual bits are supposedly going to start being available to lbs', I can help out then if you still need it :)

Bollox.

Almost exactly this was my plan. Only restriction I was aware of was the newer firmware requiring FD and RD to be both 10s or both 11s.

Plugs for the tail ends of aerobars that let Di2 cables through? What is there? I can't find shit, though I have some in one bike (maybe Spesh ones?).

Something for the Shiv next year?

It's what I'm doing on my P5 for next year. Got the Cateye buttons and everything. Isn't your Shiv single ringed up front? If it is (like my P5 is going to be) you don't even have to hack up a set of proper shifters. You can use the SW-R600, which is a lot cheaper at about 60 quid.

Yeah I had a quick look at those - no idea why I bought DA ones for the ultra bike!

I'm not sure it's worth it the way I ride the Shiv these days but if I was doing a LEJOG or something I'd probably get it done.

Could also use their climbing switches if you don't mind the greater bulk.

Thanks.

They're kinda like mine but ten-fuckin-quid? Out.

Best offer - ask to pay direct via paypal so they avoid the 10% ebay fees. Most sellers usually accept.

Last night I bought 2 non-Di2 plugs of Wiggle (thought I could just drill them) for 66p each so I'm not sure he's going to be in the same ball park.

Would rather give my money to Ian Cammish than Wiggle tho...

If there was any similarity in pricing I'd probably agree with you. £10 is ridiculous.

How much of the 66p do you think Wiggle are keeping?
