Current Projects chat and miscellany

I think it was R.1s I had. Not daily then go for it. I'm going for ZX on the Dolan.

Have you tried rigid steel forks?

In the past yep, thought these carbonz were meant to be good for absorbing trail buzz.

Fair enough, I was gonna offer to swap you some steelz to try out.

Drops for track risers for tarck

So you steal it and then insult it!?

Looks radical dude. But it would look radicaler with risers.

I've got first dibs so you can all get in line

And that Rider stem is actually really nice.

Obligatory saddle angle comment: Y U got a Scoble angle on your saddle? Dat ain't no Brooks!

That's, like, loads of cook books.

And those plants; wtf are they doing there? The counter top is cluttered with the important detritus of life, but the plants do nothing and get in the way. Outside with them, I say.

I don't know about bikes, so can't comment on yours.

Fantastic tyres, but fuck all puncture protection. Had them on my track/commuter a few years ago and loved them until they starting puncturing about 3-4 times a week. I'm getting some more for my track bike, but would never, ever use them for the road.

Which kind of Ultremos were you using? They come in various different flavours, some more durable than others. I've got Ultremo ZXs on a couple of bikes, and I've found they've been very durable. Not quite as tough as the good old Michelin Krylion Carbons, but close.

I think I've decided on Ultremos for my seta, anyone feel like arguing with me?

Well it wasn't back pain, that's one thing I don't tend to get when I'm cycling!
It was more just pain in the contact area.

Tightened the first bolt on a new project today

Need a bigger picture ;)

I wouldn't take bike fit advice from Men's Health magazine too seriously

It's the same advice as Sheldon.

needs to have the bars levelled out 4/10

Nice kitchen though. Must get round to redoing mine one of these days. Either that, or moving house.

That weighs a lot more and doesn't look to roll as fast but I could be wrong.
