Do you have pics of this? I actually own a bar bag from cycle touring in 2005 but I never get around to fitting it. It's a bit too tourist for me. Maybe on a longer audax, if I ever decide to do 600k or LEL or PBP or something.

How about one of these: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/181606005/gravel-grinder-brevet-cue-card-holder?

I emailed Jordan (big x top) the other week about making me one. It is easy to take on and off, not that touristy, perfect size fro route sheet / brevet card and you can still have a GPS mounted 'out-front' as well.

I am happy. I rode in slowly with my wife this morning on a quiet route that I had planned for her as she is keen to begin commuting on her bike now that she is working in town.

Spoke key? Travel towel?

You haven't listed a spare tyre so def. take a tyre boot. On a short weekend tour earlier this year, my carrying a couple of the Park Tool ones meant my riding partner could limp on with a gash in his tyre. They weigh nothing but can be super useful to allow you to ride on as far as a shop!

Second thing - if you follow Ed's advice to pack a small backpack, buy an Alpkit Gourdon. They are cheap and light and as a dry bag / rucksack are incredibly versatile. The back pad is removable to sit on if you are stopped somewhere and in the event of a different bit of your kit failing, you can carry stuff easily.

Saw these Novatec wheels the other day suggested as an alternative to the Kinesis. They are lighter and also seem fairly well reviewed by Road.cc

Are there too few spokes though? This seemed to be the only real point for internetz speculation.

Great. £12? Is there a character limit (within reason!)?

Thanks mate. I was after a sport size and yours is expedition. GLWS

Hi there, 2 questions about the carradice:

1. What size - expedition or sport?
   
2. Is it V1 or 2? Your title says 2, but I just wanted to check.
   
   

Thanks

Donated. Keep tweaking - I am appreciating the changes!

Squeaky Chains - I'm not sure if these guys have had a mention on here. Looking at their website, they certainly aren't new. However, I cycled past them yesterday tucked down a side street in Southwark and having looked them up, I thought I'd give them mention. Especially seeing as they are a social enterprise helping people out.

I meant to post a link to this earlier in the year when some photos of the event rolled past in my Instagram feed. It looks like an epic Audax - 2100km in 177hrs to cover the length of Sweden, beginning inside the Arctic Circle and riding in the midnight sun.

Is £1k the absolute top? If you could stretch just a little further, I think the Nomos Tangente 33 is a really nice smaller modern watch that is not too flashy but really nice.

But both methods are used after the animal has been stunned. Most meat slaughtered in the UK is stunned first. I don't think there is much to get worked up about. Once the animal is stunned, I'm not too fussed whether it is shot with a bolt gun or has its throat slit.

Apparently, it is only a small % that is not stunned: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/may/08/what-does-halal-method-animal-slaughter-involve

I'd happily take the 11-28 off you, as I need 1 more tooths top end for Oval-Kennington.

Maybe use the Steam Ride route?

Can anyone point me in the right direction for some replacement bearings for Centaur hubs? The rear is 11sp.
These are the hubs: http://www.gbcycles.co.uk/p/48740/Campagnolo-Centaur-Hubs
But I'm struggling to find the correct bearings.

Rack bag / rack pack / trunk bag - Topeak do quite a few

What seat pack?

Hi JB, I'll take this off you. I'll attempt a new stylee PM now. Can meet in town to suit.

The whisky cross forks have mudguard mounts but not the road disc forks

I've a pair of compass 32 that you are welcome to try if you want. They roll superbly, a really nice ride. They punctured far far too easily though. At the moment, I am loving Jack Browns. I'm interested to try the new Conti GP4000 ii S in 28 width. They look light and supple and with good puncture protection. No one seems to have them in stock at the moment though.
