Woah! Those tyres!! I got some really good plastic stuff in Manchester for flaps. Still going strong now. I'll try and remember where/what it was...
Did you replace lights yet? I seem to have acquired quite a collection and will be downsizing.

Ha yeah, they're quite something. The bike's more versatile now but I haven't figured out how I feel about it not being really that suitable for long paved rides yet.
I've bought new lights yes, but have been thinking about going back to dynamo on my dolan so I'd be interested in taking a look, thanks!

Flap survived the ride attached to the mudguard (the stay attachment on the front sks al guard made a great tool-free fitment for the flap), but was in tatters by the end. Will be seeking out something as garish but less brittle.
Once again the bike handled the riding better than I did. Down to 25psi in the tyres and still not too sluggish on road, better off-road but my confidence is absolutely the limiter there.
Lights gave up the ghost on friday night so a fair chunk of my bike budget will go on replacing them.
