Got a few bits and pieces I want so thought I'd check here before going to the 'bay or buying new.
First off a turbo trainer so I will be less lazy when the weather is bad. I've never had one but it makes sense, but means I know nada about them, so advice would be welcome too. Following a nearly new Tarck on ebay, good kit? Budget isn't big.
Then a front wheel. I want to upgrade my Steamroller to disc brake at the front, so want a CX disc-ready wheel. I would rebuild my current front but Surly front hubs new are £95 ouch.
And I also need a fork for the job. Ideally a Surly Straggler but open to suggestions, esp if you have swapped out a Steamroller fork and have insights to keeping the geometry the same.
Thanks for looking.
