Have just replaced the seat post on my touring bike after the nut at the top that holds the saddle in place had polished the old tube smooth.
It took 4 years before it finally failed and became unrideable. Is this normal wear and tear, or indication I've done something wrong?
Any ideas what to do with the old tube?

I am thinking of adding a set of front panniers to my bike for touring purposes, not so much because I need the extra volume, but to balance the weight about a bit more.
The bike I have has a braze on half way up the front fork, but it doesn't allow for a bolt to go all the way through the tube as some racks require. I'm just not sure which rack to get. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I am looking to make up another set of wheels for my beast of a tourer. they need to be able to take a 700x38 and a 700x32 tyre.
What do people recommend by way of rims? I want something affordable and strong, weight is a secondary concern.
Thoughts?

I am pondering adding a red light to the back of my helmet to increase my visibility.
Has anyone done something similiar? Can you recommend a light that fits to the back of the helmet?
Ideally something that can take rechargeable AAA's would be a bonus.
Thanks
