Where from and how much if you don't mind me asking. I need a 30mm long nut for some new carbon forks but they are 8 or 9 quid.

SJS has 30mm ones for £4.

I was annoyed I hadn't noticed before because I had to shell out extra postage on such a ridiculous item when I should have got it as part of a single larger order. The same applies to my other separate purchase of brake shoes... grrr...

Cheers, still adds up to 6.50. I;ll do the rounds of LBS's before ordering.

Converted my loft from a useless shithole, into a training den. Put a floor and what in.

Vroom Vroom.

where is the fork from/ how much does it weight? x

The fork is a real Look one, 1' carbon with alu steerer, quite heavy. The frame is not a Look I think, repainted with Look decals and heavy too. The whole bike is 9.9 kg which is outrageous. Train heavy, race light as they say, and I don't race!

^^Is it just my quality LFGSS BikeFit™ at play,

or does your saddle look too high?

Cool GIF btw

Using Wiggy as a comparison,
his knee flexes more at the top of the stroke,
and his other foot isn't as plantar flexed as yours

Then again he isn't really human

yeah.. whats up with the plastic all over the place, do you habe a fan there?

Spinning wheels?

Big fans!! One behind the step ladder.

Saddle is maybe a touch high, gif exaggerates, due to freeze frame. But it works for me.

^Derp,

and gotcha :)

Jesus Skinny, I'm surprise you still got some bits left over between your legs to piss and hump.

ISM Adamo mate. Amazing saddle.
Did 2x40min and 2x20 in position over 3h period monday. No issues.

Got a url to the gif?

Hah! oh sumo...

Your bar angle is wrong, it should ideally point at the rear brake bridge.

Lurking bored GF is excellent bike security.

it actually does, it's the angle of the photo that makes it look strange.

gets custom bike made. puts on clip-on mudguards....

front mudguard doesn't cover much...

Want tight clearance, can't run mudguard.

this shows it better

Clip on's because I didn't want to change the geometry to fit them. It handles exactly how I wanted and I had clip on's in mind when designing it as I know they work.

works enough to keep my feet dry.

see above.

Hook, line, and fucking sinker.
