might get the cam version of the tool roll aswell as the neon yellow one.

Do you find the strap kind of annoying?

perhaps the tension cables are integral to frame strength
a la slingshot

Yes, changed it to a different one pretty much straight away. I wish there was some more velcro inside too, currently using two paperclips to hold it together, lol.

roadie wheels? so boss

which mini v's are you using again? im still tempted to swap

Rogan - I've got a set of TRP CX9s on my Cross Check, have a friend with Paul Mini Moto's too, both of us have been very pleased with them

this is porn

aye, i always forget how expensive decent brakes are

the cantis are fine when its not wet, but they leave alot to be desired when its really wet

i.e all the time in manchester

Was gonna go for Archetypes at first, but got these cheap and their inner width is 20mm, so the profile of the tyres is a lot better now. Brakes are TRP 8.4 and they're really great. Will not be going back to Cantis. Got them for about £75 from asia.

Yeah, that's one of the things which prompted me to swap. I'm sure I could have got better cantis/pads/cables and have similar performance, but the CX9s just felt better out of the box.

I'm also a lot happier adjusting v brakes which has makes general set up/maintenance quicker and a lot less stressful!

Gonna build a black Triathlon bike some time soon.. Looking at the FSA Gossamer brakes, they cheap. Are they any good?

Thanks, I'll probably get a camo one though.

No idea.. But the decals are ugly.

Well done on directing the water spray toward the light, that'll definitely prolonged it's short lifespan.

lifespan of arse > lifespan of light
no?

ergo you should protect your light more that your ass no?
