No doubt they're lovely tyres, reason for the sale is 2 fold.
1 - Aesthetically I just prefer black although the Rene Herse are about as good as tan tyres look.
2- Original intention was for 2 sets of tyres that I swapped over on one wheelset. Reality has been this is such a faff that I haven't really used the Hatcher Pass ones. I'm going to replace them with one set of tyres that are a little better suited to the gravel riding I do (I.e pretty good condition summer stuff). The Manastash Ridge ones are great for year round use but given I normally stick to the road in the winter I'm going to get something a bit quicker for the summer dry gravel I mainly ride. I don't have clearance to run the Hatcher Pass with guards so won't be using them over the winter either.And I could also do with the cash ahead of Christmas!

Decent price for dual sided Garmin Power Pedals, cheaper than most places are selling the single sided options.

Longer than 9 days to be fair.
Main reason is that every other bit of health, fitness kit i own is Garmin and they all mesh nicely together. I've been using Garmin for nearly 2 decades so I'm very familiar with them and there's so much ingrained muscle memory.
The Hammerhead was definitely better in many areas, particularly the mapping (have added pics to my sales post) and as @PhilDAS say's it's very slick and feels more contemporary. The only thing that i found annoying were the audio prompts (which can be turned off). The battery is also not as strong as Garmin and as I'm quite keen on some long rides it may have caused issues down the line, I'd say the battery would be fine for rides under 150 miles.

Cross post to the classifieds but I'm selling a Hammerhead Karoo 3
Great bike computer with the best routing and mapping I've experienced on a bike computer but I've decided to stay in the Garmin ecosystem.

Selling a barely used Hammerhead Karoo 3.
Ive had it for a couple of weeks but I'm too burried in the Garmin ecosystem (watch, scales, previous bike computers) to make the switch permanently.
I've really enjoyed the Hammerhead, the routing and mapping is probably the best of any bike computer I've used. The screen is great and I liked the mix of touch screen and button interface. The only downside I found was the alert volume is a little loud, other than that it's an excellent device.
Plenty of good reviews from all the usual sites.
Comes with a 1/4 turn adapter so it's compatible with all Garmin mounts etc.
Looking at sales on Ebay and Facebook they seem to go for around £260-300 so I'm looking for £240 collected from Walton on Thames or postage at cost.

Fortunately no such bad luck for me. They credited me the full value so it's been an incredibly cheap upgrade.
