Time Trial / Time Trialling / TT

Yep the single button ones, and it is a pair - I was thinking around £140. If you're interested or need photos just drop me a message.

I also have other Di2 brand new parts if anybody is interested, as my TT build can't accommodate Di2 due to the age of the frame and not being able to fit the cabling through the frame!

I'll pass thanks. I'm also mostly looking for GRX stuff so not sure the TT bits are much use. Thanks though.

Even better!

Trains don’t run early enough to get to NRHR and all my car owning / lending friends are busy 😞

Any chance of a ride @fredtc?

Might be able to but I'm coming from South West - I'll dm you my number and you can text me.

Those are in short supply at the moment so £140 was definitely below what they are going for elsewhere. I sold some on eBay recently for a fair bit more iirc.

Can't fit, or can't drill the frame 😃

Thanks for letting me know, I did see them on Merlin cycles at around £160 but they seem to have sold out. I’ll try listing them on the time trialling forum.

Can’t fit and didn’t even consider drilling the frame even though it is a second hand boardman air 9.8!

Another cracking ride from @fredtc this morning to bag first road bike and second overall. I managed to take a minute off last years time for 16w less power 🤷, good enough for 2nd / 5th

Great stuff both of you. I was a bit concerned when I was out this morning that it'd be postponed due to ice, glad to hear it went ahead.

Did either of you beat Dowsett?

Nice! Ap or NP? Look at NP or KJ and see the difference

It was pretty grim. Very low visibility and freezing fog. Mr Dowsett DNSed due to his latest sprog popping out.

For skinny:

2023
AP: 273
NP: 282
kJ: 1106

2024
AP: 257
NP: 269
kJ: 1035

It was pretty grim.

I know, I was out for 2 3/4 hours in it. The sun came out on the top of the ridge in Woldingham and I was thinking how beautiful it was, then I dropped down the hill towards Westerham and was back in the freezing fog again for another hour.

Yeah bit down but seems you pushed the hills harder relatively. Good work.

Made up 10s on the first one then slightly quicker across the board. Thanks coach

My race power kept dropping while I kept getting faster. I blame aerodynamics (and only racing fast courses).

• Forum skinsuit: XL Milltag v1.2. £40 posted (including Racedots).
  Looks unworn (no pinholes, clean gooch), which confuses me slightly. I think I sold the one I did wear, then bought this, then compulsory helmets were introduced, so it went in the cupboard.

• (Closely) matching socks, also unworn: marked "LG" which I assume is for "large", I wear a 46 shoe. £10 posted.

• Giro Empire SLX in 46 (I'll remove the Speedplay bits). Toes are scuffed, but otherwise good. Footbeds/bag/box included. £50 posted.

I’ve pm’d you about the socks.

I’ve also pinged @Sam who might be interested in the skinsuit.

Thanks Andy.

@Scilly.Suffolk, PMed :)

Second dibs on the skinsuit.

I’m out. Need a large. Can confirm they’re absolutely amazing suits (well, nicest cycling gear I’ve ever worn).

Too big for me sadly, so still up for grabs.

Thought I'd mention in here while I was catching up on the thread: I'm selling some tt parts over in the classifieds. Mainly a 144bc 56t Narrow wide chainring and a velobike aero spider used to convert from 144bcd 5 bolt to 3 bolt sram direct mount. There are also a few less specialised cranks to go with it and a bunch of track/road parts too. Hope that's of interest!

Got excited then. Saw the 56t ring. But its the wrong bcd for me.

I need a 110bcd 56tooth if anyone has one

Buy my 58t 130bcd

Won't fit my cranks... but what ring is it? And how much?
