Thanks, this is my experience so far, I was anti rapha till I tried it, now I can't find anything that compares. I like the Assos NeoPro and X-Bionic bibs I've had but the pad seems way comfier in the PT kit.
I've been comfortable wearing the Flyweight all year round, unless anyone could recommend an equal to the pad and lightness I'll likely end up going with the regular PT.
Thanks again for the input

Rapha wouldn't do repairs as I didn't buy direct.
I'm looking for replacement flyweight PT bibs, their recommended alternative is the Powerweave which are out of stock, anyone have any suggestions to similar lightweight bibs? cheers
La Passione and Le Col both do some, do they compare to the rapha stuff?

Website shows this, I didn't buy direct or at REI/John Lewis. I've also relocated to France so not sure how viable the service is.
If I can repair the hole I'll do that, thought maybe someone had a fix tip such as glueing or sewing.
I'll contact them and see what they say and check on the flyweight bibs too
We will examine any item - purchased on Rapha.cc, at one of our clubhouses, or through our selected retail partners REI and John Lewis.

Got a nice 100km in the morning and then slid on gravel turning up the driveway, wrecked shorts, shirt helmet and needed 2 stitches in knee. (K)Needless to say I won't be doing the other routes or going in the water . Route was great and ended up following the signposted route for l'ardechoise for a bit.
If I come back here I'll bring the gravel bike for revenge.

Thanks for all this info, I'm taking the family to the Ardeche this August, and hope to sneak out for as many rides as I can.
I found this site through the links you'd posted
https://www.cycling-challenge.com/gorges-de-lardeche/Which is great cos they're all based around where I'll be, so hopefully I'll get to do all three (or at least one)
Be grateful if you know anything to lookout for in this area?
I always check this map for water points and use Google streetview to scout them out as I find the sun/heat a killer

Not living on the streets, but in the streets!
Tower Hamlets survey on making roads safer around Victoria Park, Roman Road and other places around Mile End area
You don't have to be a resident but you need to sign up to do the 50 question survey, pretty quick to do, I skipped the streets I don't recognise but checked the cycling improvement options
https://talk.towerhamlets.gov.uk/lsbow
If you're enjoying the quiet roads around the park i'd urge support in filling in the survey.
Sorry if this has been posted before

Looks like decathlon sell levers for 4.99

Also have some new AliExpress aero socks, they are too tall for me, have big double grips inside top. I'm size 9 and they fit, will suit size 8-11 (possibly)
battery pack and charger for AliExpress t6 Cree light that I broke
Also loads of spoke magnets, small round, 1x 'aero' rectangular for blades spokes, and one with its own clamp if anyone interested?
-
They seem ok, my kids just drag their feet to stop the bike after learning on a balance bike.
Must be a design flaw with the lever as both sides have this issue with the plastic stopper, I bodged one by using an old bar plug and putting a hole in it. The other I never fixed.
The rubber end has come of one side of the handlebars but still has bar plug.
I'm moving out soon so having a clear out

Have one of these orange robot bikes, brake cable snapped on one side but should be fixable, good condition but no stabilisers.

Will add pic later.
Also have a battery pack and charger for Cree light from AliExpress if anyone wants?
Collection from hackney Wick or nearby

Salomon Break
https://www.salomon.com/en-gb/shop-emea/product/rx-break-4-0.html
They do half size too and can find for 30£ not 50£ as on the official site. I'm size 9 and have 9.5 (too big) and 8.5 (snug) -

Think I grabbed the last one. If it doesn't fit I'll put it on eBay for twice the price and list it on here too but for a bit more again.
