@amey is right. She crashed her 696 so was replacing it with this.

£550+postage? DM'ed you.

I've got a brand new substance frameset i need to sell. 52cm. The other half bought it in the wiggle end of days sale but then went and bought a Stigmata frameset instead!

They'll probably sell you one without the fork warts.

Yes, it's the same as the on one freeranger and the vitus substance (and many others).

Sorry! I did say 'might'.

What's the GT Mini like compared to the B01?

It's <4mm wider than the Lumintop B01, so might fit the mount which comes with that light. I've got a couple of B01s and the mount is great (thou may not look it online).

Alternatively, if you don't need the 1600lm of the Fenix, then buy a Lumintop B01 (900lm).

Bought the ex-demo Load4 60 from Kinetics. Arrived a couple of days ago, it's ace! Got the child seats and rack arriving in a couple of weeks.

I've seen people with Ortlieb Outer Pockets attached to the back of the cargo box. Anyone know how they do this?

What other mods/accessories do I need?

Didn't really get on with my Trailblazer 18. Pockets are all a bit weird shapes and lack of bottle pockets was annoying, plus the UL sternum strap is hard to do up.

Wanted something a little bigger too so took a punt on a aliexpress Aonijie 30l pack. It's a rip off of a ultimate direction fastpack but supposedly with some improvements. Quite surprised with it tbh and enjoying it. My other half using it near Ullswater on saturday while i carried the baby...

Anyone have the actual length of a Load 60? And turning radius? Trying to figure out if it will fit in our storage...

How do you find the Load compared to the GSD?

With the Load, can you remove the battery to charge it? Or does it have to be charged on the bike?

Been looking at R&Ms and very tempted by that Load4 60 for nursery commuting and gravel adventures. Seems like a great price.

What's the general view on the Touring model vs the enviolo/rohloff? I'm thinking I may have more flexibility with gear range with the derailleurs to get up the steep hills here in the lakes.

Is it possible to fit another battery to it?

Orica used to use this frame for their roubaix bikes, if that means anything. (Pre hayman winning on a Foil obvs) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dhtjctyhu-c

Brand new Fox 34 Performance? Pretty sure it's 130mm but will need to check.

Super keen too, if M4xime doesn't want it and you can post. Is it really in new condition?

Rode the A road through Ings yesterday. It's a mixed use pavement and not indicative of what the lakes has to offer! Defo recommend taking the ferry route.

Also rode some of the lanes near Winster. They can be gravelly and steep up and down. The A5074 there has quite nice views and usually quiet if you want a less climby route after hard knott! I use it all the time. Also, after Brigsteer your route seems to go off road at the Heslington church so I've rerouted that. Back near hawkshead the route goes down a gravel track so have changed that too. Have tried to make those changes to your google route:

The Wheatsheaf Inn in Brigsteer has a sign that says cyclists welcome thou I've never taken my bike. Good pub, food is decent.

There's actually a bigger/better/more popular vegan cafe on that route at Skelwith Bridge. Chesters - https://maps.app.goo.gl/mJ614XBZLnkqERdA9.

What day of the week will you be riding? The road to Ambleside from skelwith bridge can be quite busy on the weekend and then the road after Windemere on that route past Ings is a bike lane along the side of a fast A road.

The roads via hawkshead to the ferry will be smaller and quieter but will take longer. The road along Esthwaite Water is especially beautiful. Then on the east side of the lake you could go through Crosthwaite and the lyth valley onto Kendal over Scout Scar (bit of a climb) or further down go through Brigsteer and Natland (less climbing). These are my local cycling loops so can do you a route if you need.

I live a few miles down the road. As others said, the A591 between Windermere and Ambleside is fine but not too enjoyable. You get some good views at certain points thou and the wide faster bit has a pavement you can ride on. I use it fairly regularly to do a lap of the lake but that's early morning and it's usually empty.

Gravel path on the west side of the lake is probably ok on 28s if you take it easy (and it's dry. Ha, who am I kidding!). Plus the ferry is always fun and just reopened after a month long refurb (there's also a good vegan cafe on the other side called Joeys). Thou it will probably seem like a very roundabout way to get to Ambleside from Windermere!

Thought this might be the case!

Does anyone know if these Ribble Level carbon wheels came with a front 15mm thru axle adapter?

My partner's got them on her gravel bike but now wants to run them on her mtb which is 15x100. I've misplaced all the bits they came with!

Love it.

Came across this as a neat way to add a strap... https://youtu.be/UTrn-Q3if3s?si=urUNx5anntmmm0Ed

My VO on my Demon have been used a few years and haven't cracked.

Gilles Berthoud? I got some silver wide boys for my commuter from Clandestine a while back. Not sure if he still sells them?

Have used PDW all metal 45 for the past 2 years. They're good, but VO are better in terms of coverage and defo look nicer.

SKS Edge 56 on my gravel bike. They work for that purpose but they don't have the wrap around of a VO/GB/Honjo.

Happy Friday (full disclosure this was actually taken yesterday but I wasn't in the hills today)

Not what you specified but I've got a brand new Red 8bolt 46t.

Is the gov site blocked for you? Can you use one of the car check sites? https://car-check.co.uk/check/RB10AMG

Love these. Been looking at them alot recently.
