fucking nitto flat bars! came today, mmmmm. shame i can't fit them as i don't have any acetone atm, tomrrow first thing, sainsburys, back home, hacksaw out, job done!
i don't love kmc z510hx chains. upon measuring my chain with new tool it is .75% worn and as i have alu rings it recommends to get a new chain at this point. so i duly did. but the chain, my god, almost broke my chain tool, an almight "POP" when the pin is pushed thru (they have "mushroom" ends?) followed by worry about whether the tool is broken. couldn't get the pin to go back in so ended up using the master link. interestingly, i took the old chain off without moving the wheel, with same amount of links the new chain was 5mm too short, so now i have about 6mm clearance. w00t.
