Any question answered...

ild think of the karma and contact them. otherwise the online purchase gods will condemn your parcels for evah

What time of year did you ride there?

Pretty much the whole year that it is possible to ride the higher mountains. It's very arid, very hot- Alpine desert. I did sweat like Dov in a trainer shop but it didn't debilitate as it did the chap in your quote.

I'd tell them, but they'd have to come round to mine to collect it.

Didn't think of that: good call!

As Wiggle have them for £880 at the moment, I an imagine them putting up a struggle though...

Arnica salve, deep heat or other? Is arnica a placebo?

Hmm, I've kinda got a soft spot for Ribble, are they still family owned?

If it was PBK I'd definitely keep it.

Up to you I suppose...

Yes. Arnica is useless.
Deep heat only works by irritation.

What is the problem?

Extremely tight lower calf. Been trying to stretch it out.

Stretch in a hot shower

Yeah, bend over in the shower.

That's it.

Just. Like. That.

1 inch threaded headsets, are they all the same size? Need to replace the one on my girlfriend's Look KG227 but I don't do threaded

Stack height?

No.

I can add or subtract spacers to make it fit?
I'll measure what's on there and try and find something similar. It's an old stronglight number currently

Stretching will work. Foam roller could.
Creams won't.

Hot water bottle mightjt help.

I can add or subtract spacers to make it fit?

You can add spacers to make a lower stack height one fit, you can't subtract spacers if the new one has a higher stack than what you already have. For that, you'd need negative shims :)

There are two sizes of crown race too, you should have an ISO 26.4mm one, so beware of 27.0mm JIS headsets.

Ah of course. There's probably 20mm of spacer on there now so one with a little more stack should be fine too.

This is exactly why I was asking. I knew there was something like this. Cheers

The red one with flat bars? With those spacers you needn't worry about the stack of the replacement.

Stronglight A9 is a safe bet with a period vibe.

It so happens I have a Record HS going spare for only a couple of pounds more...

I'm listening...

Are they the ones in the recall?

I paid ~£800 4 years ago.

EDIT: and then went faster on my old SRAM S80 front wheel I got off ebay...

Has the guy at Evans sold me the wrong brake pads? The ones on the left are the original.

Yeah, blatantly incompatible.

Thanks.

Yes, they're different.

Yeh, thanks

They have codes on them. Which brakes do you have?

L02A or L04C are what I use - resin or metal, for Shimano's BR-RS805 Flat Mount road calipers
