Any question answered...

Awesome. Thanks

Has anyone replaced the seal on their fridge door? Was it easy?

I further investigated the fridge smell. See various posts above.

I'm now cutting my losses and buying a new fridge. It's the only way to be sure.

I wouldn't let a seal anywhere near my kitchen.

I'd take a seal over rotten insect eggs any day. Christ I feel traumatized.

I'm just not into seal, whether over rotten insect, quail or chicken eggs.

What is this clamp thing over the sticker on a Look I just bought?

Is this some kind of device to try and stop the chain falling and knarling up that lovely carbon bb area?
Some kind of powery metery crank rev counter thingey?
Some gopping orrible plasticky after market nothing to do with Look thing, that has some function my primal steel biked brain can't figure out?
Other?
You can tell I'm new to the carbon bike and bike tech of any kind game ;)

stop the chain falling and knarling up that lovely carbon bb area

Pretty much

Ah OK thanks a lot. So it was option a and c :)

I'm not off roading the thing, and though London's roads are not exactly billiard table I don't recall my other bikes dropping chains all over the show or even ever, so I'm guessing if you got your front derailleur set up properly, and Look didn't see the need to add one themselves, then it isn't needed and is going. And will save 18g.

Ohshit hang on, have I just become a weight weenie.....

It's the kind of thing someone adds after many, many failed attempts to setup your derailleur to not drop the chain on certain shifts. I would view it as a warning about your future.

Ha!
Oh god I hope its not a bad omen. The bb area does seem remarkably clean and free of any obvious knarling, so I hope the previous owner wasn't that guy
....or maybe the dogfang thing was doing its thing and saving the day, cos its ace #marketing

a Look I just bought

Don't forget to say hello in the Look thread

Got a backpack out of the loft. Some what looked like copper sulphate(?) around the zips.

The zips were absolutely stuck fast and took ages with some plusgas and wiggling to break free.

I've lubbed them with silicone grease.

Question is: why and has anyone seen this before?

Probably some kind of nickel compound from the metal in the zip.

White vinegar deals with it pretty well.

White vinegar

The smell would probably have washed out easier than PlusGas 😂

Thanks, I will post in the Look thread once I've got my set up done.

The buy was in no small part down to you. I've never ridden a carbon bike of any kind before, but for over a decade whenever someone posts here they are thinking of selling their 585 you say something along the lines of "don't! you'll regret it, sell another bike, get another job, one of the best bikes ever, just don't do it" so that finally seeped in and when the opportunity for a bargain one came up I figured it was a no-brainer :)

The smell would probably have washed out easier than PlusGas 😂

I was about to say, doesn't it absolutely stink now?

Before I lose my sanity, can some one point me in the direction of replacement jockey wheels for SRAM Etap 11s wifli, not £200 versions :-)

Hope? About £45 IIIRC.

This suggests not;
Not Compatible with 2 pin locations.

I assume this means the pins being of different size, which they are..!?

Superstar components?

Might be worth an email as they may be able to knock some up / add to their range

Tried Uber they said no, I’ll try superstar.

Anyone know of a decent shot blaster within the M25 before I start calling around?
