now i'm an unemployed ex-courier i feel better qualified to play polo (obligatory smiley face)~but the real usage was to gear my bike down like crazy so i can feel comfortable not getting into races while using this thing as a child carrier.

how long until wheels are built and i get the tensionmeter back?

not urgent - but have noticed a mild deformity on my front fixie skid wheel

These chaps arrived this morning.


where did you find them in the end?

PBK are clearing their own brand tools so got 3 diff sized spoke keys and a Shimano cassette lockring remover for £7 posted.

Not really by post but picked up at "Stalen Ros" jumble in NL.
NOS pair of Detto Pietro shoes, leather with wooden soles.
Should be far better than the poor Vittoria's with plastic soles I have now.
Maybe these will let me ride with clips again.

Lovely shoes.

very

He had several pairs available. I think he sells them on Ebay as well (Belgium, France ???)
Always hard to order shoes online. Sizes and stuff. Jumble was a good occasion.
I got size 44. Usually I buy shoe size 42 - 43 or so.

My tiara arrived:

Will last as long as a chocolate fireguard. But was a fair bit cheaper than a chorus 11spd (11-25) cassette. So meh, hatersgonnahate etc.

Sorry for the crappy phone photo

Sora with Tiagra mech's.
Not bad for 80 quid delivered, just need the rest of the bike now. Anyone got a large alu road frame they want to sell me?

If you're on a budget Spotter. You could do a lot worse than a Vitus from the CRC clearance. Not sure whats left in the way of sizing though.

Continuing my weight weenie theme I picked up my Swiss-comp alloy gear and brake cabling system, from the post office, yesterday. Looks seriously cool, and came with loads of different bits for running into levers etc. (currently a little confused TBH). Came with inner cables which I was'nt expecting. I've ordered some compatible (I think/hope) power cordz gear inners, mainly out of curiosity. They dont really save any weight. Cant buy brake inners before I have my calipers.

Cheers, I already saw them.
I hate CRC's site, it tricks you into thinking things are cheap.
I was looking at the Vitus Alios Frame for £69.99, hover over it, see it comes in 60cm.

£125.98 in big sizes. Heightist bastards!

Bigger frame, more metal, higher cost. Sits OK with me.
The CRC site is pretty clever though. It automatically displays me prices sans VAT, which is annoying as I nearly always have stuff sent to the UK.

61cm XL too big?
£129 (frame only)
