i landed yesterday at 6am.... so jet lagged. will see every one at the track day if not before. just finished putting the bike together, there are some scratches, and the tyres need air but no dents.
I hear Brick Lane Bikes are doing air if you need some.
I love my DT Swiss 1.2s, but they're machined so not very hipster friendly. Tough as a shit brickhouse though. I reckon stick with silver rims for that bike. CXP33s or summat.
My family runs a jewellers, my reccomendation is go for platinum of just HTFU and get gold.
Silver isn't hardy enough for a ring you're gonna wear for the rest of yo' nachel bawn life.
I switched to clipless the other week and it is a fucking revelation! I spend nearly as much time going out for serious rides as I do commuting/going to the pub etc on my bike so I was willing to sacrifice some practicality for performance.
You might aswell forget about wearing trousers altogether!
