Which version? 4-bolt? 5-bolt? I’ve got a brand new set of R8000 50/34 going spare.

Wow

It’s with @WillisG as of May

I’ve got an old TarpTent I’ve been meaning to pass on. Can’t remember the model Edit: TarpTent Squall
It’s a snug 2-person, single wall, 2 pole construction with a bathtub floor. Circa 800g iirc.

I’d say this underselling it because it was fucking hard

It is a good climb though :D

Yeaah that was hard. Coldest I've been on a bike since riding the Fred Whitton route... in late October. For comparison, the Fred is ~3,700m over 180km and the route Dan completed was nearly 4,700m (acc. to Strava) in 196km. Where he found the appetite for Sir William Hill and the Dale after @jmg412 and I bailed is beyond me.

Shoutout to The Fryery in Whaley Bridge which (I think for all of us) saved the ride.

Pm’d re freehub body

Flyweight? 🙏

Pics would be great please

Could be interested in this.

@QuantitySurveyor

Rear spacing is 130mm where the Langster is 120 so yeah will be wider.

Fwiw I had a 111mm Campagnolo (ISO?) bb on there with Sugino 75s and a 47t chainring and it didn’t foul.

Don’t want to open a can of worms, but is it ISO or JIS?

Oh no. Wrong size? The Campagnolo BSA threaded BB I installed went in ok.

And seeing as fixed gear is cool again

Bottom bracket shell on the Factor is oversized, to the point that even a Wheels Manufacturing threaded BB and Loctite retaining compound couldn’t solve the issue. Bit fed up with it so I’ve parked it for now. Will try again at some point and leave it to set for the recommended 24hrs before riding, instead of the 45 minutes it actually had.

Re-enter the CAAD10 which I was unable to sell, even for approaching a hundred quid. RIP rim brakes.

It has it’s own issues but critically, it doesn’t creak. Scored some cheap Quarq power meter cranks for BB30 (another standard nobody wants), chucked a 105 groupset at it and raced it to 10th place against the aero crowd in my first road race.

Sent you a PM

Can you send me some photos and a price please?

I believe I can now make that date (15/16th). Not sure how many ‘hitters’ I’ll be able to convince once they see the route.

After a set of 105, Ultegra or GRX shifters and flat mount calipers. Also a set of 110bcd 4 bolt sub-compact chainrings (48/32t or less) to suit a pair of DA9000 series cranks.

Cheers

Forumers will attest that I love an early morning train.

Anybody got a decent road route out of central London? Looking at riding back to the midlands on Saturday. No particular requirements other than heading in a general northerly direction and that I've been advised to pay a visit to Bread by Bike in N7.

Frame and wheels sold. Brakes pending.

Aye

Campagnolo C-Record Sheriff Star single fixed rear hub/Novatec A171 QR front on Mavic Open Pro rims. Sapim Race spokes, 32 front, 36 rear. Both 3x.

Front wheel is basically new. Rear rim has been used previously but never braked on. Sheriff Star hub is slightly notchy in the hand but spins fine when on the bike. I have both 120 and 130mm axles (+spacers) to suit the above frame.

Can throw in a 18t Phil Wood cog and lockring.
