This guys name is Peter Bagley (no joke, that's the name he gives us when we tru his wheels, and on his building society savings book). He is best to deal with in the winter because the smell isn't as penetrating. He has blingier wheels than any of us at the shop; Mavic 819's to Hope Pro 3 with Sapim CX Rays. He says he needs these wheels because of all the weight on his bike (Around 150kg).
Until recently he had an old steel Dawes under all of those bags, but he bent the seatstays with all the weight. I think ActionBikes on Embankment sold him that Rockhopper, because we would have advised AGAINST suspension. He's already pulled the V-bosses off twice.
Poor Peter.
