Bloody hell, impressive stuff. Rourke looks awesome

Agree with gum walls but only if they come with the durability of Conti GP 4 Season - do they exist? I had some Paris Roubaix for the last bike but they fell apart before even being installed.

Di2/Hydro thoughts;

• Installing took some patience.
  
• My partner is certain it's all going explode and leave me dead in a ditch.
  
• Braking is amazing, no rattling cables and shifting is so smooth.
  
• Sram hood callouses do not align with Shimano hoods - Hands need to HTFU.
  
• R785 Di2 buttons rattle so much Shimano should be ashamed. Going to read the manual and see if theres something that can be tightened/adjusted.
  
  

Sram X1 is some serious big ring commitment! The clutch mech looks mean though.

But those King Cages work so well...
Until funds are replenished the most I could stretch to is a rattle can to spray black.

Bottled it at coloured bar tape, difficult to get right!

Big fan of the training jersey - I prefer the slightly more spacious pockets it has over the others.

Gone digital and hydraulic discs are awesome.

Do I need round or oval cable grommets for Di2 wiring a CAAD10 Disc?
Thanks!

Poor choice of words, well caught!

Has anyone seen UK pricing for the SRAM Etap HydroHC upgrade kits? With eurobike approaching I'd have thought it would leak out somewhere.

Could you use a centre lock ring that has the teeth on the outside of its diameter - the one secured with a BB spanner or socket? I bought one for a DT Swiss hub:

Upgrade time...

Looking for Di2 hydro shifters and callipers; RS785.

In a separate post I'm looking for accompanying DA or Ultegra Di2 gearset.

I'm based in London.

Thanks!

Looking to upgrade to Di2, preferably Dura Ace:

• Derailleurs + Internal battery + Cables + Junctions + Shifters
  
• Would be amazing if you had the RS785 Di2 hydro shifters & disc callipers but will consider the regular ones.
  
• I'm based in London.
  
  

Thanks!

Thanks danb. I need cheap and quiet but would prefer no treacle.

Ta. Pushes the JetBlack into the lead. Was shitness to do with longevity or just terrible to use?

Question for the hive mind...
Been looking at secondhand direct drive trainers in view to introducing some structured training into my week;

• Elite Turbo Muin - Progressive resistance
  
• JetBlack WhisperDrive - Manually adjustable resistance
  
  

Regarding the resistance mechanism, any obvious merit of one over the other?
Will be using with a Rotor InPower for power+cadence and heart rate monitor. Possibly Training Peaks for guidance.

Thanks PhilDAS and edscoble - there's enough gap between the steerer, top of stem and top cap to tighten another half turn or so. I'll do that tomorrow

Chopped some more steerer and replaced an ailing Arione saddle with a new Arione R1. Fit sorted now.

Once the SI top cap is tightened should I still be able to rotate the cone spacer by hand? At the moment I can rotate the spacer between the stem and bearing. Thinking I should tighten a bit more.

I’m trying to reclaim the cellar so these are looking for new homes. Stripped from various bikes over the last couple of years.
